Job Description:
Salesforce Technology Lead
? UK-based (with travel to client sites & Salesforce events, approx. 6 days/month)
? Full-time | Permanent
? Build and lead a new Salesforce practice — own the technical vision from day one.
We’re exclusively partnered with a leading digital consultancy launching a brand-new Salesforce capability. They are hiring a Salesforce Technology Lead — a highly strategic, client-facing technical leader who will define the technology vision, shape delivery standards, and guide some of the most high-profile Salesforce programmes across the UK.
This is a unique opportunity to build a Salesforce practice at scale, influence C-level stakeholders, and establish best-in-class Salesforce delivery across both public and private sectors.
? The Salesforce Technology Lead Role
As Salesforce Technology Lead, you will sit at the very heart of the practice’s leadership team — responsible for solution architecture, technical governance, and senior client engagements. You’ll partner with architects, delivery leads, and Salesforce themselves to ensure that solutions are scalable, secure, commercially sound, and future-proof.
In addition to driving complex delivery engagements, you’ll be instrumental in building out the team, mentoring senior talent, and representing the practice across the wider Salesforce ecosystem.
? Key Responsibilities:
* Define and own the Salesforce technology vision, architecture standards, and technical roadmap.
* Act as senior technical authority for internal stakeholders, Salesforce partners, and C-level client executives.
* Lead Salesforce delivery across complex, enterprise-scale projects and major transformation programmes.
* Support pre-sales, bid work, frameworks, and client shaping conversations.
* Champion platform-first and AI-enabled Salesforce solutions that drive meaningful long-term business value.
* Build and develop high-performing Salesforce teams, coaching both architects and consultants.
* Actively represent the practice within the Salesforce ecosystem as a thought leader and evangelist.
* Drive consistent technical excellence, delivery innovation, and strategic alignment across the Salesforce portfolio.
? What We're Looking For:
* Proven experience as a Salesforce Technology Lead (or equivalent senior technical leadership role).
* Strong track record of Salesforce delivery leadership, including public sector or regulated industry programmes.
* Excellent C-level stakeholder engagement and consulting capability.
* Salesforce Application Architect or System Architect certification (CTA highly desirable).
* Deep platform expertise across Salesforce Sales, Service, Experience, and Data Cloud.
* Broad experience of SaaS delivery models (Agile, DevOps, modular and iterative delivery).
* Integration expertise (Salesforce with AWS, Azure, M365, on-prem & legacy environments).
* Understanding of UK government security, compliance, and assurance frameworks.
* Commercially astute, with experience supporting bids under frameworks like G-Cloud, DOS, and TS3.
* Demonstrated experience in building, developing, and mentoring high-performing Salesforce teams.
* Willingness to travel (UK-wide, approx. 6 days/month).
* Salesforce Certified Technical Architect (CTA).
* Additional certifications (Public Sector Solutions, AI, Industry Clouds).
* Active SC or DV clearance (or eligibility).
? Why join as Salesforce Technology Lead?
This isn’t just another technical role — as Salesforce Technology Lead, you’ll have direct influence over how the practice operates, scales, and succeeds. You’ll own key decisions around technical delivery, frameworks, team growth, go-to-market strategy, and client engagement.
If you’re a Salesforce leader seeking an opportunity to shape a practice from the ground up, drive complex enterprise transformation, and work at the highest level of technical strategy — this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
