About The Position
Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all. Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce. We are looking for a high-energy, organized Associate Project Manager to join the M&A Deal and Integration Legal teams, reporting to the Senior Director, M&A Legal Integration. This role is the "connective tissue" that keeps our most complex acquisitions on track. You will support the M&A Deal and Integration Leads in managing the end-to-end lifecycle of an acquisition—from the fist stages of deal execution through the multi-year journey of integration. You will be in the room for high-stakes discussions across multiple deals, responsible for ensuring that the various legal work streams stay synchronized with each other and with applicable business stakeholders. This is a "learning-by-doing" role designed for someone who wants to master the mechanics of M&A execution and integration at a global scale. You'll work in a hybrid schedule, 3 days in office per week.

- Communication: Exceptional writing and verbal skills; you can distill a lengthy presentation into a three-bullet executive summary.
- Tools: Proficiency in Slack, Google Slides, and Google Sheets required.
- Adaptability: A high degree of comfort with ambiguity. M&A timelines shift constantly, and you must be able to pivot without losing momentum.
