Marketing M&A Integration Operations Senior Manager
role at
Salesforce .
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. Salesforce is 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.
Salesforce continues to grow through strategic acquisitions that expand our products, customer reach, and capabilities. The Marketing M&A Integration Operations Senior Manager plays a key role in making those acquisitions successful—supporting both the planning that happens during due diligence and the execution of marketing integrations after close.
This role bridges strategy and execution. You will coordinate marketing integration activities across functions, manage program timelines and budgets, and ensure that new acquisitions are set up for long‑term growth through rigorous diligence. It’s highly visible, combining operational management, program leadership, and cross‑functional collaboration.
What You’ll Do You will play a key role in how Salesforce’s Marketing organization plans for and integrates new acquisitions—from diligence through post‑close execution. Working closely with Marketing, Corporate Development, and cross‑functional partners, you will help assess new companies before acquisition, plan how they will integrate into Salesforce, and operationalize the work that makes those plans real.
This role blends operational management, program leadership, and strategic execution. It’s hybrid and will work out of the Salesforce office in Indianapolis, Chicago, or Bellevue three days a week.
Key Responsibilities
Lead Marketing Integration Operations: manage planning and execution for new acquisitions, focusing on scaling smaller strategic and tuck‑in deals. Coordinate and track integration plans with clear owners and success measures.
Support M&A Diligence: partner with Marketing M&A deal leads and Corporate Development during due diligence to gather and analyze marketing information such as org structures, budgets, and MarTech tools; identify integration requirements, risks, and opportunities that inform deal and post‑close decisions.
Drive Operational Excellence: design and maintain repeatable processes, templates, and integration playbooks that improve efficiency, consistency, and data integrity across integrations.
Coordinate Cross‑Functional Alignment: act as a liaison across Marketing, Sales, Product, IT, and Finance teams, ensuring shared understanding, timely decisions, and cohesive execution throughout the deal lifecycle.
Support Strategic Planning and Reporting: build and maintain integration dashboards and progress reports for Marketing leadership; track key metrics, identify trends, and communicate outcomes clearly.
Budget and Resource Tracking: manage integration budgets, purchase requests, and spending approvals to maximize cost efficiencies during the integration process.
Experience / Skills Required
7–10 years in marketing operations, program management, or M&A integration.
Proven ability to manage complex projects and coordinate work across multiple teams.
Strong project management skills with experience running multi‑team initiatives.
Skilled at building structure and process in fast‑moving or ambiguous environments.
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence without direct authority.
High attention to detail and strong organizational skills.
Comfortable working cross‑functionally and balancing multiple priorities.
Self‑starter who takes ownership and thrives in dynamic, evolving situations.
Experience evaluated based on alignment to the Values & Behaviors for the role (e.g., extracurricular leadership roles, military experience, volunteer work).

Background in B2B SaaS or enterprise software.
Prior experience in Corporate Development or M&A integration.
Understanding of core marketing functions such as demand generation, events, content, and sales enablement.
