Job Description

SALESFORCE PRINCIPAL CONSULTANT

The role

Own multiple complex, strategic client engagements at once across the full Salesforce and Certinia ecosystem.

What you'll do

\n
• Identify delivery risks, scope creep, and resourcing concerns early
\n
• Provide senior input on scope changes and change orders
\n
• Coach and develop consultants staffed on your engagements
\n
• Contribute to proposals, SOWs, estimates, and pre-sales scoping
\n

\n
• Experience leading large-scale enterprise transformations or comparable complex engagements

\n
• Experience coaching and developing other consultants
\n
• Strong ability to translate business requirements into functional solutions
\n
• Willingness to travel 20-30% to client sites
\n
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience

\n
• PMP or similar project/program management certification
\n
• Experience with data migration/integration tools (Data Loader, Informatica, Jitterbit, or similar)
\n
• Salesforce certifications (Platform Administrator, App Builder)
\n
• Certinia certifications (Implementation Consultant, Sysadmin for PSA and/or Financial Management Cloud)

Compensation

Up to $150,000
