Salesforce Appoints Robin Washington as President and Chief Operating and Financial Officer

Date:

Salesforce announced that Robin Washington will become President and Chief Operating and Financial Officer (COFO), effective March 21, 2025. Washington will lead Salesforce’s next transformation phase in this newly created role, driving profitable growth, operational excellence, and financial strategy.

Washington has spent decades at the forefront of financial and operational strategy at some of the world’s most respected companies, including Gilead Sciences, Hyperion, and PeopleSoft. She has also been an active member of the Salesforce Board since 2013, previously serving as Chair of the Audit and Finance Committee and as Lead Independent Director since 2022. In addition, Washington has served on the boards of Alphabet, Eikon Therapeutics, Honeywell International, and Vertiv Holdings.

“I am thrilled to welcome Robin as COFO at this incredible moment when Al agents are redefining the workforce,” said Marc Benioff, Chair and CEO of Salesforce. “Robin has been a trusted partner, advisor, and a key architect of our strategy as we accelerate the rise of Agentforce — the first digital labor platform. Her operational mastery, financial expertise, and strategic vision make her the perfect leader to guide Salesforce through this transformational shift. As we look ahead, I’m excited to work with Robin in this newly created role and with our incredible Salesforce executive bench to bring this significant Agentforce opportunity to life.”

“I am deeply honored to step into this role at such a defining moment for Salesforce and the entire industry,” said Robin Washington. “Having worked closely with the executive team for over a decade, I couldn’t be more excited to help lead Salesforce and our global community of employees, customers, and Trailblazers into this agent-first era that will fundamentally change how businesses operate, innovate, and grow.”

After Washington joins the company on March 21, 2025, Arnold Donald will become the Company’s Lead Independent Director. Washington will remain on the Salesforce Board of Directors.

The current CFO, Amy Weaver, announced last year that she would be transitioning from Salesforce once a new CFO was named.
