• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills across both business and technical teams.
• Experience creating comprehensive training materials, knowledge transfer frameworks and adoption plans.
• Proven ability to influence users and drive behavioural change.

Highly Desirable

• Salesforce transformation or CRM implementation experience.
• Exposure to logistics, supply chain, fulfilment or distribution processes.
• Experience supporting integrated environments involving multiple business applications.
