Job description

My industry-leading Client are looking for a Product Owner to join them and play a key role in their Salesforce journey.

Acting as the voice of the customer and business, you'll shape the team's workload to ensure the right value is delivered at the right time.

This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of technology and the wider business and someone who can translate complex needs into actionable deliverables, while keeping a sharp focus on delivery outcomes.

My client implemented Salesforce off-the-shelf a couple of years back now and have customised it into different business areas. It's working incredibly well and they're looking to bring in a Salesforce specialist to manage the on-going refinement of the product across their large, customer-service function.

Essentially, you will act as the conduit between stakeholders and the development team. You'll have the ability to gather requirements and really get under the skin of what stakeholders need from the CRM - Understand their problems/issues, suggest how the system can help and then work with IT to get these things delivered!

It's essential you know Salesforce really well, more from an analytical perspective as opposed to the nitty-gritty techie side. You'll understand its abilities, capabilities and how they can impact a wider team. This knowledge will help you to translate their goals into deliverables with the Dev team.

You also don't need to be a proven Product Owner as such - you may come from a Business Analysis/PM background. As long as you bring a solid grounding in Salesforce and you're good with stakeholders - This could be a cracking fit.

You'll be extremely confident in your approach and a solid communicator - comfortable pushing back when needed to get things done In the right way. You'll be adept at navigating shifting priorities, tight deadlines, and evolving business needs with confidence and control. You will work with urgency, accountability, and a sense of control - inspiring and motivating others around you.

What I love about this company, is how they invest in their employees. You'll be given a personal progression plan from day one, with quarterly one-to-ones with your hiring manager to discuss your development and potential for growth. Learning is massively encouraged - they have their very own IT training team and a huge range of online materials in all things tech!

We'd love you on-site 5 days a week in their offices just outside of Hull - It's important you are visible for face-to-face interaction with the wider team and stakeholders in the business.

Salesforce specialists across the UK who may be open to relocation are encouraged to apply.

Salary is up to 55,000 plus bonus and awesome wider benefits working in state-of-the-art offices just outside of Hull.
