• Monitor and manage workstream interdependencies across Sales, Service, Agent, Marketing, and Data Cloud implementations
• Support and facilitate data governance, integration design, and change adoption across the client enterprise
• Champion PMO excellence, continuously refining workflows, documentation standards, and client communication strategies
• Drive user adoption through coordination of training, support plans, and strategic communications during and after go‑live
• Lead retrospectives and track program performance to fuel continuous improvement post‑launch

Qualifications

• 7–10+ years of program or senior‑level project management experience in digital transformation or CRM‑focused environments
• 3+ years specifically managing Salesforce‑related programs, ideally with experience across at least three Salesforce clouds
• Deep understanding of Salesforce architecture, delivery lifecycles, and platform best practices
• Strong stakeholder management experience in both business and technical contexts
• Demonstrated success managing large‑scale, cross‑functional delivery teams in a matrixed organization
• Familiarity with data integrity, governance, and Salesforce platform integrations
• Experience delivering within Agile or hybrid Agile/Waterfall frameworks

• PMP, CSM, SAFe, or other relevant delivery certifications
• Experience with tools such as Jira, Confluence, Microsoft Project, Power BI, or Smartsheet
• Prior experience in consulting or agency environments highly desirable

What Success Looks Like
