Hybrid Working
A major enterprise transformation program is underway within one of Australia's leading insurance organisations, focused on migrating from Salesforce Sales Cloud to Financial Services Cloud (FSC). This is a high-impact, offering genuine ownership and the opportunity to shape and lead delivery from the front.
This program requires a senior Salesforce leader with a strong engineering and architecture background — someone who has done this before, understands the complexity, knows what good looks like, and can lead a multi-disciplinary team with confidence.
What You'll Be Doing
* Leading discovery activities and defining the FSC migration strategy and solution architecture
* Assessing the current Salesforce environment, customisations, technical debt, and migration complexity
* Acting as the senior delivery and technical lead across the program — driving standups, managing stakeholders, and unblocking teams
* Leading and working with a cross-functional team comprising a Technical Architect, Product Owner, Functional Analyst, Salesforce Admin, Salesforce Engineer, and multiple Business Analysts
* Setting technical direction, reviewing solution designs, and ensuring architectural integrity across the program
* Providing functional and technical coverage and guidance during key project transition periods
* Supporting data migration planning, FSC data model alignment, and integration design
* Remaining hands-on where needed while operating at a strategic delivery and architecture level
* Establishing delivery structure, governance, engineering standards, and best practice across the program
What We're Looking For Essential Experience
* Strong Salesforce engineering and architecture background with hands-on platform depth
* Proven end-to-end experience delivering Salesforce Sales Cloud → Financial Services Cloud (FSC) migrations
* Demonstrated experience leading and managing cross-functional Salesforce delivery teams including architects, engineers, admins, analysts, and BAs
* Strong delivery leadership capability within enterprise Salesforce environments
* Ability to operate autonomously and confidently within ambiguous or evolving programs
* Comfortable bridging technical architecture and functional delivery conversations
* Experience inheriting unfamiliar Salesforce environments and quickly identifying risks, dependencies, and migration challenges
* Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences
Highly Desirable
* Insurance industry experience
* Exposure to commercial insurance, personal injury, or broker operations
* Experience within large Australian financial services organisations
* Salesforce DevOps exposure including CI/CD, version control, and scratch orgs
* Strong understanding of Salesforce data migration approaches and FSC data modelling
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
* Large-scale enterprise Salesforce transformation with genuine technical and delivery ownership
* High-visibility role with real influence over architecture, approach, and outcomes
* Opportunity to shape the migration strategy from discovery through to full delivery
* Strong blend of strategic leadership and hands‐on technical involvement
* Long-term engagement with a well-recognised Australian organisation
* Collaborative environment with an established engineering and BA capability already in place
This role would suit a senior Salesforce Consultant, Engineer Lead, or Solution Architect who enjoys operating in complex enterprise environments and can bring both technical rigour and delivery structure to large transformation programs.
