Salesforce Implementation Specialist Sheffield City Centre (office-based and hybrid) Salary: £60,000 - £75,000 UniHomes is hiring a Salesforce Implementation Specialist to own the design integrity of our Salesforce platform as we scale into a heavier Agentforce and AI-led operating model.
Reporting to the Head of CRM, you will be the senior technical voice on the team - setting the architecture, designing integrations, governing releases and mentoring our Salesforce Administrators.
This is not a hand-coding role; the team uses configuration and Cursor-assisted development for build, and we need your judgement on what gets built, how, and why.
Key responsibilities: Own solution architecture across Sales Cloud, Service Cloud and Agentforce - from data model to security model to integration topology. Design integrations between Salesforce and the rest of our stack (finance, marketing, product, data platform). Govern releases: own the release process, branching strategy, code review and deployment pipeline. Review and quality-assure Cursor-assisted development output before it reaches production. Mentor our Salesforce Administrators, raising the bar on declarative build standards. Partner with the others on agent design, governance and the underlying Salesforce footprint that supports them. Be the senior technical face of CRM to the wider business - engineering, product, data and security.
Skills and experience: Proven experience as a hands-on Salesforce developer earlier in your career - Apex, Lightning Web Components and integration work - followed by progression into architecture. Salesforce Application Architect or System Architect certifications (or actively working towards them). Deep working knowledge of data modelling, sharing and security models, and integration patterns (REST/SOAP, platform events, middleware). Experience leading release governance and review of work produced by others, including by AI-assisted tooling. Strong communication skills - comfortable translating between business stakeholders, administrators and engineers. Comfortable in a fast-moving, SME environment where pragmatism beats perfection. Desirable Experience with Agentforce, Einstein and the broader Salesforce AI stack. Background in marketplaces, lettings, utilities or consumer-facing platforms. Exposure to AWS and modern data platforms.
