Position Overview
Our client is seeking a leader to lead the strategy, prioritization, and ongoing improvement of its enterprise CRM platform.

- Serve as the primary liaison between business stakeholders, IT leadership, and the Salesforce team.
- Translate business needs into clear platform requirements and practical solutions.
- Evaluate requests, tradeoffs, risks, dependencies, and team capacity to make informed decisions.
- Lead intake, backlog prioritization, solution planning, testing, release governance, and delivery.
- Partner with Sales, Sales Operations, Customer Service, and Field Service to improve processes.
- Guide initiatives involving warranty management, Field Service, and the transition from Salesforce CPQ to Revenue Cloud.
- Support complex product, pricing, quoting, discounting, and approval processes.
- Lead and develop an experienced team across development, architecture, administration, business analysis, and quality assurance.
- Coordinate with the PMO and technical teams across a mix of waterfall and agile delivery methods.
- Clearly communicate priorities, timelines, risks, and decisions to business and technology stakeholders.
Required Qualifications
- Significant experience managing Salesforce, another enterprise CRM platform, or a comparable business application.
- Demonstrated people leadership and team-development experience.
- Business-process experience within Sales Operations, commercial operations, customer service, or a related function.
- Experience translating business requests into prioritized application enhancements.
- Strong critical-thinking, decision-making, and stakeholder-management skills.
- Experience with project delivery, requirements gathering, solution planning, and backlog management.
- Knowledge of complex product and pricing environments, including product configurations, quantities, price books, contract pricing, discounting, or approval structures.
- Ability to lead independently and make sound decisions in a fast-paced environment.
- Confident and collaborative communication style with business leaders and technical teams.
- Bachelor’s degree in Business, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
- $130-$150k base
