Salesloft, a leading provider of a unique platform designed to empower revenue teams, has recently welcomed Sara Cohen to its executive team as the Chief People Officer. In her new role, Cohen will oversee the company’s human resources and talent functions across global teams while reinforcing Salesloft’s commitment to maintaining its acclaimed culture known for fostering a great workplace environment.
“The way people work is rapidly changing due to advancements in technology, and Salesloft is at the heart of this transformation,” remarked Cohen. “Salesloft utilises AI and other technologies to enhance employee productivity and drive outcomes, ensuring that technology serves people, not the other way around. I’m thrilled to join a company dedicated to reshaping how both our employees and customers approach work.”
With close to two decades of experience in people management, Cohen brings a wealth of expertise to her new position. Having worked at reputable firms such as Forsta, GroupM, Xaxis, and Edelman, she has demonstrated a keen ability to balance business priorities with employee needs, driving growth and fostering positive workplace cultures.
David Obrand, CEO of Salesloft, expressed enthusiasm about Cohen’s appointment, emphasising the importance of her role in guiding the organisation through its next phase of growth. “Sara has an impressive track record as a senior People leader, focusing on both talent acquisition and talent development, especially during times of major growth and transformation,” said Obrand.
“We are committed to expanding our global team and investing in continuous employee development, and Sara’s background deeply aligns with those objectives.”
Cohen’s arrival at Salesloft coincides with a period of significant growth for the company. Following the acquisition of Drift, a buyer experience and conversational AI company, Salesloft has positioned itself as the first and only AI Revenue Orchestration Platform for revenue teams, spanning the entire buyer journey. Additionally, Salesloft’s collaboration with IBM marks a milestone in its global expansion efforts, further solidifying its position as a leader in the industry.
