About Saepio

Cyber security isn’t an add-on to IT. It’s a specialist discipline.

That’s why modern UK organisations separate the teams who run systems from those who protect them. And it’s why they choose Saepio.

We’re one of the UK’s most recognised cyber specialists and an NCSC Assured Service Provider, working with over 1,000 organisations who trust us to help them:

• Cut through noise and see their real risk
• Align policy, people and technology into one coherent strategy
• Mature security operations without adding unnecessary complexity
• Build cyber resilience that stands up to real-world pressure

We partner with the most advanced security platforms in the market and deliver high-impact events, campaigns and thought leadership that place Saepio at the centre of the UK cyber conversation.

The Role

After nearly a decade of Salesforce usage without an in‑house expert, our organisation is now seeking a hands‑on Salesforce Architect to take complete ownership of our Salesforce ecosystem.

This person will stabilise, redesign and future‑proof our CRM infrastructure — resolving legacy issues, eliminating technical debt, rebuilding workflows and automation, and establishing governance practices to support scalable growth.

If you enjoy transforming messy, overengineered, or outdated Salesforce environments into clean, efficient, high‑performing systems, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

Full Audit & Remediation

• Conduct a complete org assessment: data model, security model, flows, workflows, permissions, and integrations.
• Identify technical debt, conflicting automations, unused configuration, and system inefficiencies.
• Deliver a detailed remediation plan and execute against it.
• Rebuild the Salesforce data model for clarity, performance, and scalability.
• Redesign the automation framework using Flow‑first architecture and modern patterns.
• Create a structured, governed hierarchy for record types, layouts, permissions, and profiles.

Workflow & Process Automation

• Replace legacy Process Builders and Workflow Rules with optimised Flows.
• Align automations to refined business processes across Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Operations.
• Reduce flow errors, improve reliability, and increase system performance.

Data Quality & Governance

• Implement data hygiene rules: dedupe, validation, normalisation, and ownership frameworks.
• Enforce governance, change control, and proper release management using sandboxes.

Skills & Experience

Required Skills & Experience

• 5–10 years hands‑on Salesforce experience.
• Proven record of rebuilding a legacy Salesforce org or leading large‑scale remediation projects.
• Deep expertise in:
  • Security model (roles, profiles, permission sets)
  • Integrations & APIs
  • Declarative configuration (App Builder)
  • Ability to read/debug Apex (bonus if able to write it).
  • Strong knowledge of Sales Cloud and Service Cloud.
  • Experience introducing governance and change management processes.

Preferred Certifications

(Not all required — but highly desirable.)

• Advanced Administrator
• Integration Architect / Data Architect
• Application Architect or System Architect credentials

What do we offer?

• Having a happy and healthy team provides the foundation for our energy and drive
• 25 days annual leave plus additional half days for a ‘Duvet morning’ and your birthday (FTE)
• BUPA Premium Health Insurance covering pre‑existing conditions
• Critical Illness Cover
• Royal London Pension Plan
• Strong learning and development culture to help you excel
• International incentive trips for high performers
• Fantastic social events e.g. Family Fun Day, Quarterly socials, Festive Party
• Quarterly company‑wide recognition events e.g. lunch at Michelin star restaurants
