Position overview :

We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented Customer & Channel Proximity IT Specialist to join our Southern Europe IT Solutions team. The team is mainly based in Madrid, but the vacant position is in Marseille. This role serves as a strategic interface between business stakeholders in sales and e-commerce and the global IT function, ensuring alignment between business needs and technological capabilities.

This is a functional, business-oriented role rather than a technical one. The successful candidate will act as a key liaison, ensuring smooth adoption and optimization of digital tools and processes within the organization.

Key responsibilities :

• Serve as the primary IT liaison for the French Sales, e-commerce and Maison Yellow teams, ensuring that business needs are effectively gathered and translated into actionable IT requests.
• Support the evaluation and potential deployment of projects in other Southern European markets, aligning with regional business priorities and ensuring seamless integration.
• Analyze and document business requirements, facilitating their implementation within the global IT framework.
• Collaborate with the global IT team to prioritize and allocate resources for system enhancements and process improvements.
• Oversee the adoption and optimization of Salesforce Consumer Goods Cloud (SFA tool) and Magento (e-commerce platform).
• Lead user acceptance testing and validate quality assurance testing to ensure system efficiency and accuracy.
• Drive the adoption of global IT solutions within the French sales organization, ensuring alignment with local business processes.
• Conduct training sessions, prepare documentation, and promote best practices to facilitate seamless system integration.
• Act as an intermediary for IT incident escalation, ensuring that functional issues are effectively diagnosed and addressed by the global IT team.

Candidate profile :

• Fluency in French and English is mandatory. Proficiency in additional Southern European languages (Spanish, Italian, Greek) is an asset.
• Proven experience in sales, business operations, or IT functional roles, ideally within the consumer goods, retail, or e-commerce sectors.
• Strong understanding of sales processes, including on-trade, off-trade, and e-commerce.
• Working knowledge of Salesforce Consumer Goods Cloud or other CRM tools is highly desirable.
• Familiarity with e-commerce platforms (Magento or similar) is advantageous.
• Proactive and independent approach, with the ability to work autonomously while driving initiatives effectively.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build relationships and collaborate with both technical and business teams.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and a solutions-oriented mindset.
• Strong project management capabilities, comfortable working in a global, cross-functional environment.
• Be part of a global organization with a strong emphasis on innovation and professional growth.
• Play a critical role in digital transformation initiatives supporting a leading sales organization.
• Enjoy career development opportunities within Pernod Ricard's international structure.
• Work in Marseille, with a hybrid work model offering flexibility and collaboration.

Application Process :

• Initial interview with the recruitment team.
• Interview with the hiring manager.
• Final interview with senior leadership and the HRBP.

If you are passionate about bridging the gap between business and technology, possess a strong functional understanding of sales and IT solutions, and are eager to support a globally recognized organization, we invite you to apply and contribute to Pernod Ricard's continued success.
