Overview

Own the business-side coordination and day-to-day stewardship of Salesforce for Sales. The role owns cross-functional intake and business requirements for Salesforce changes, connecting Sales and relevant partner teams with GBA, Technology/IT, GRO and reporting teams so that requests are understood, prioritised, properly assessed and delivered with clear business ownership. The role covers Salesforce only; it coordinates with connected-system owners when a Salesforce change may affect them, but does not own those systems.

This is a business-facing platform-owner role, not the hands-on technical administrator. GBA retains technical assessment and delivery, including configuration, access administration, integrations, bulk system work, technical documentation and technical release execution. The role works with CRM Enablement and business teams rather than replacing their user guidance, adoption support or routine record-maintenance responsibilities.
