Introduction:
At Gallagher Bassett, we're there when it matters most because helping people through challenging moments is more than just our job, it’s our purpose. Every day, we help clients navigate complexity, support recovery, and deliver outcomes that make a real difference in people’s lives. It takes empathy, precision, and a strong sense of partnership—and that’s exactly what you’ll find here. We’re a team of fast-paced fixers, empathetic experts, and outcomes drivers — people who care deeply about doing the right thing and doing it well. Whether you're managing claims, supporting clients, or improving processes, you’ll play a vital role in helping businesses and individuals move forward with confidence. Here, you’ll be supported by a culture that values teamwork, encourages curiosity, and celebrates the impact of your work. Because when you’re here, you’re part of something bigger. You’re part of a team that shows up, stands together, and leads with purpose.
Overview:

As our Vice President, Sales Enablement, you will play a critical role in accelerating growth, strengthening strategic client relationships, and enabling teams around the world to perform at their best. This position sits at the intersection of technology, sales strategy, and business transformation, ensuring we leverage Salesforce as a powerful platform for collaboration, insight, and growth.

The ideal leader is equally comfortable engaging with executives, sales leaders, and technical teams, translating business needs into scalable solutions that improve outcomes for our clients, colleagues, and organization.
