The Business Applications Manager (Salesforce Administrator) role
A Cloud Guru is seeking a Business Applications Manager to administer and manage the core tools used by the Go-to-Market teams. While this primarily involves Salesforce.com, it also will encompass tools that heavily integrate with SFDC, such as SalesLoft, Chorus.ai, DiscoverOrg, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, etc. The ideal candidate for this role will be able to simultaneously execute on tactical enhancements and fixes while also making progress on-larger scale, more strategic infrastructure projects. This role requires an action-oriented individual who is eager to build systems designed to scale with A Cloud Guru’s substantial growth. Our existing instance and process has some key infrastructure in place, but is still quite a blank canvas. The Business Applications Manager will be able to put their fingerprints on each of these tools in a significant way.
In this role you’ll get to:
- Architect and implement the key processes and technical infrastructure in Salesforce.com and related Go-To-Market systems
- Partner with management and end users across multiple teams to meet the needs of a rapidly growing business. This will frequently include translating non-technical statements into technical requirements, and probing for underlying needs during requirement gathering
- Proactively identify gaps in process and reporting. Actively suggest fixes and take action to eliminate these gaps (in conjunction with key stakeholders)
We are looking for someone who can:
- Own of the full project lifecycle: Develop, Test, QA, Document, Train, Release, Support
- Provision, modify, and offboard licenses in key Go-To-Market systems
- Support and maintain integrations between Salesforce.com and dependent systems such as Sales Navigator, SalesLoft, Chorus.ai, and others
- Migrate, cleanse, and retrofit key data as necessary when implementing new solutions
- Manage relationships with key 3rd party consultants also working in Salesforce.com
If you have the following experience, we'd love to hear from you!
- 8+ years administering Salesforce.com
- Strong verbal and written communication skills, including building and maintaining documentation and demoing new features
- Expertise in all point-and-click Salesforce.com administration: process builder, workflows, email alerts, validation rules, page layouts, field configuration, record typing, profiles, permission sets, role hierarchies, sandbox environments, etc
- Experience working with all standard Salesforce.com objects and functionality
- Strong project management skills, including experience in managing initiatives that span multiple quarters and touch many different users
- Bonus: Experience with marketing automation tools, DocuSign, sales automation, etc
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
