Their work helps ensure PPL stays secure, efficient and ready for the future.
What you’ll be doing:
As Salesforce Engineer, you’ll sit within the Technology function and play an important role in supporting, enhancing and developing PPL’s highly customised Salesforce platform. This is a great opportunity to combine technical expertise with a strong customer focus, helping us get the best from Salesforce and deliver solutions that make a real difference to how PPL operates.
We’re looking for a self-motivated Salesforce specialist who brings strong technical capability, curiosity and a flexible, can-do approach. You’ll be confident translating business needs into practical technical solutions and comfortable building trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
You’ll champion the effective use of Salesforce at PPL, working with Lightning components, configuration changes, data management, Apex, Einstein & other AI technologies. You’ll also contribute to an environment built around source-controlled code, structured processes and automated delivery.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Produce clear, practical documentation that enables other developers to support, maintain and enhance systems effectively.
- Act as a key point of contact for discussions about new solution requirements between the business and Technology.
- Support the development, deployment and ongoing improvement of systems and applications.
- Analyse, document, review and follow structured processes and procedures, including configuration management, version control, coding, testing and documentation standards.
- Research and recommend new tools, techniques and approaches that could improve how solutions are delivered, including the use of AI.
- Represent the needs of business users by delivering effective solutions that meet approved specifications, agreed standards and wider business objectives.
- Act as a Salesforce subject matter expert, championing & maximising the value of the platform and advising on how it can best support business requirements.
- Use Salesforce capabilities appropriately, prioritising declarative and configuration-led solutions over customisation where possible.
