About 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. 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.

The Experience

The Tableau Specialist role is part of our Public Sector Sales team, focused on driving data and analytics transformation across Switzerland and Austria. As a strategic overlay specialist, you will partner closely with Account Executives to serve federal and cantonal/state governments, education, healthcare, and public utilities across the Alpine region.

We are looking for a Tableau Specialist who serves as the primary analytics authority for the region — guiding public sector leaders from initial curiosity to full-scale adoption, and positioning data as the backbone of modern government services.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

• Partner with Account Executives to build and close a Tableau pipeline, leading product demonstrations, custom Proofs of Value (PoV), and executive presentations tailored to public sector needs.

• Act as a trusted advisor to senior government stakeholders, translating complex challenges — such as eGovernment initiatives, open data mandates, and reporting obligations — into compelling visual analytics use cases.

• Collaborate across a matrixed organization including Solution Engineers, Customer Success, and the broader Salesforce Public Sector team to deliver a unified customer experience.

• Maintain accurate forecasting and opportunity management within your portfolio using Salesforce Customer Relationship Management (CRM) tools.

You're Our Person If...

• You have proven experience in a specialist sales or overlay role within data, analytics, or enterprise software (including Business Intelligence (BI), data platforms, or AI-driven insights).

• You have a deep understanding of the public sector landscape in Switzerland and/or Austria, including public procurement processes and frameworks.

• You are fluent in German and English and can communicate complex data capabilities as clear, tangible value to senior government stakeholders.

• You thrive in a fast-paced, matrixed environment and have a track record of winning collaboratively across teams.

Even Better If...

• You have working proficiency in French, particularly for engagement with Swiss Federal accounts.

• You have experience working with local systems integrators or consultancies specializing in Swiss and Austrian public sector markets.

Unleash Your Potential

When you join Salesforce, you’ll be limitless in all areas of your life. Our benefits and resources support you to find balance and be your best, and our AI agents accelerate your impact so you can do your best.
