Salesforce is looking for a Manager to join the Technology Risk and Controls team within Digital Enterprise Technology (DET). This is a high-impact individual contributor role at the forefront of transforming how Salesforce governs its technology landscape. You'll play a critical part in designing and implementing a revised IT Governance Operating Model — helping the organization build scalable, transparent, and effective oversight across its enterprise systems. This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution, partnering with cross-functional teams and leadership to bring a governance roadmap to life.

Responsibilities:
  • Support the end-to-end implementation of the enterprise IT Governance Operating Model, ensuring technology risk management practices are embedded across the organization's IT landscape
  • Lead the evaluation and categorization of enterprise technology assets to determine appropriate oversight levels, partnering with business units to define and communicate governance standards and compliance benchmarks
  • Act as a strategic liaison between stakeholder teams across the enterprise, fostering a culture of transparency and shared accountability for technology governance
  • Prepare reporting and insights for governance leadership and steering committees on program maturity, system compliance status, and emerging technology risks
  • Assist in designing a comprehensive oversight strategy for the program's steady state, ensuring long-term adherence to IT Governance standards across the system lifecycle
  • Partner with Leadership to monitor roadmap progress, identify obstacles, and propose creative "path-forward" strategies that fulfill governance objectives while preserving organizational agility
Required Qualifications:
  • 6+ years of experience in IT Governance or Risk Management, with a proven track record of leading cross-functional projects to design and implement IT operating models, including conducting technology risk assessments to categorize assets and determine oversight requirements
  • Demonstrated experience in program operationalization — specifically, translating high-level governance roadmaps into executable tasks, workflows, and compliance benchmarks
  • Familiarity with leveraging technology platforms and automation tools to develop scalable solutions for tracking system inventories, monitoring compliance, and managing governance initiatives
  • Expertise in identifying and addressing project-level obstacles, with a demonstrated ability to propose creative alternatives that fulfill governance objectives without disrupting business operations
  • Strong analytical and reporting skills, with experience preparing executive-level insights and progress reporting for Steering Committees or similar governance leadership bodies
  • Experience will be evaluated based on alignment to the Values & Behaviors for the role (e.g. extracurricular leadership roles, military experience, volunteer work, etc.)
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Relevant professional certifications such as CGEIT, CISA, or CRISC
  • Professional background in IT Audit, Risk, or Controls, with experience developing governance frameworks and advising business units on compliance requirements
  • Experience with Software Asset Management or integrating risk assessments into procurement workflows
  • Previous experience in a large-scale, decentralized technology environment
