The Opportunity

Adobe’s Corporate Sales team is a mid-market field organization that drives growth in our Creativity & Productivity business unit. As AI reshapes the way sales teams operate, we’re excited to create a dedicated role to ensure we capture that opportunity – strategically, operationally, and at scale.

This role is about bridging emerging AI technologies and the everyday operations of sales and GTM efforts. You’ll audit and unify grassroots AI initiatives already underway, define operational frameworks for scaling them, and promote guidelines across the full org. This is a senior individual contributor role with outsized influence – equal parts strategist, builder, and field leader.

Strong candidates will have experience delivering AI programs in mid-size or large sales organizations. They will understand the sales process and funnel. They will have technical proficiency to evaluate and build agentic workflows. They will also possess communication skills to influence a field organization.

What You'll Do

AI Governance & Discovery

• Audit existing AI initiatives throughout the organization – including SDR outbound agents, call analytics tools, and rep-led experiments – and build a centralized inventory of what’s in flight

• Evaluate initiatives for performance, scalability, and strategic fit; identify gaps between tech-forward reps and the broader organization

• Define governance protocols covering data usage, model risk, vendor selection, and responsible AI; partner with Legal, Security, and IT on compliance

• Contribute to strategic AI portfolio decisions: intake, prioritization, build-versus-buy evaluation, and deprecation for internal and third-party tools

Technical Architecture & Workflow Design

• Define the operational blueprint for where we code, configure, and deploy agentic workflows across the sales motion

• Act as the strategic layer between field operations and internal engineering groups — translating business needs into scalable, production-ready AI solutions

• Define and evolve the AI tool and architecture landscape, including how solutions surface in seller workflows and how data and agentic layers interact

• Partner with GTM, sales ops and internal technical teams to move from strategy to execution without losing fidelity

Field Evangelism & Enablement

• Partner with the Global Sales Enablement (GSE) organization to deliver AI enablement for the field team - delivering training, showcasing proven workflows, and building the org’s baseline AI proficiency

• Build and run an AI Ambassador Program to create grassroots momentum, accelerate adoption, and surface field-led insights back into the core program

• Develop role-based AI learning journeys in partnership with GSE; drive execution of the proficiency program across teams and deal bands

• Define and implement a change management and communications strategy that spans top-down alignment and bottom-up adoption

Value Realization & Measurement

• Map AI deployments directly to core business metrics: pipeline growth, win rates, net revenue retention, and rep efficiency; maintain alignment with Adobe-wide AI initiatives and external partner roadmaps

• Partner with ops to build the measurement infrastructure to track AI adoption velocity, workflow impact, and reduction in administrative burden across the org

• Monitor the external AI landscape — competitive deployments, emerging vendor capabilities, agentic framework developments — and provide forward-looking perspective to sales leadership

What you need to succeed

• 10+ years in mid-market or enterprise sales strategy, GTM operations, management consulting, or AI/digital transformation at a leading SaaS or AI-native firm

• Demonstrated track record delivering AI or digital transformation programs with measurable behavior change in large, distributed sales organizations

• Hands-on AI proficiency: working knowledge of LLMs, RAG pipelines, and agentic frameworks; comfortable evaluating and pressure-testing technical solutions

• Proven ability to partner with technical collaborators across IT, data engineering, and full-stack development to translate business strategy into working solutions

• Outstanding executive communication — written and verbal — with the ability to move a large field organization and engage VP/C-suite collaborators

• Bachelor’s degree required; MBA or equivalent experience strongly preferred.

• Willingness to travel ~20% of time
