  • Act as the senior technical authority and point of escalation for all Salesforce related matters

  • Partner with marketing, sales, and technology leadership to drive platform strategy and roadmap

  • Mentor and guide junior and mid-level Salesforce team members

Required Qualifications

  • 8+ years of hands-on Salesforce experience with deep expertise across the full platform

  • Advanced, proven expertise in Marketing Cloud including Journey Builder, Email Studio, Automation Studio, Mobile Studio, and Audience Builder

  • Advanced, proven expertise in Data Cloud including data ingestion, identity resolution, segmentation, and activation

  • Experience delivering large scale enterprise implementations across multiple Salesforce clouds

  • Strong written and spoken English with executive level stakeholder communication skills

  • Must have prior remote work experience, be fluent with remote collaboration tools and platforms (such as Slack, Zoom, Google Workspace, Asana, or similar), and have ideally worked with US or UK-based companies. Applications without this experience will not be considered.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Salesforce Marketing Cloud Architect or Consultant certification

  • Salesforce Data Cloud Consultant certification
