• AI, analytics and forecasting : Build operational and executive dashboards covering pipeline, conversion, sales, forecasting, revenue, customers, adoption and service performance; establish repeatable predictive methods to forecast quarterly and year-end landing positions using opening pipeline, stage conversion, win rates, sales-cycle velocity, slippage and deal-level risk; identify and deliver high-value use cases using Agent force, Einstein and related capabilities.
• Governance, risk and documentation : Maintain effective release, change, backup, testing and deployment controls; support audits and ITGC requirements; maintain solution designs, SOPs, configuration inventories, deployment records and user guidance; coordinate vendors while retaining clear internal accountability.
• Stakeholder partnership : Work closely with Sales, Finance, Marketing, Billing, Delivery, IT and external partners to support connected Lead-to-Order and Order-to-Cash processes, including merger and acquisition initiatives.

Key competencies

• Customer and support orientation : Approachable and accountable front line for Salesforce users.
• Technical depth: Strong knowledge of Sales Cloud, Flow, Apex, Lightning Web Components, SOQL/SOSL, APIs, testing and deployment, balancing configuration-first thinking with development and integration capability.
