Who You’ll Be Working With
Capgemini works with some of the world’s largest brands on some of the most interesting and complex transformation programmes in modern IT. The Salesforce Delivery Unit is one of the fastest growing areas within Capgemini UK and focuses on helping clients realise business value through Salesforce, AI, customer data, digital engagement and marketing transformation.
You’ll be working across a wide spectrum of industry sectors, from Consumer Products, Automotive and Retail through to Financial Services, Telecommunications and Public Sector. You’ll work closely with business stakeholders, enterprise architects, marketing teams, data engineers, security specialists, governance leads and delivery teams to transform customer engagement capabilities using Salesforce Marketing Cloud Next and Salesforce Data 360.
You’ll experience significant variety in this role.

- You’ll lead architecture reviews and present solutions to Technical Design Authorities, Architecture Review Boards, Security Review Boards and senior stakeholder forums.
- You’ll establish governance processes, design standards and architecture guardrails to ensure consistency across programmes and delivery teams.
- You’ll support release planning, deployment strategies, environment management and operational readiness activities across Salesforce platforms.
- You’ll identify technical risks, dependencies, assumptions and architectural challenges, ensuring appropriate mitigation plans are implemented.
- You’ll collaborate with security teams to ensure solutions are secure by design and align with enterprise security policies and standards.
- You’ll partner with marketing, CRM, analytics, data engineering and AI teams to activate trusted customer data across campaigns, reporting, customer service and Agentforce use cases.
- You’ll stay current with Salesforce innovation across Data 360, Marketing Cloud Next, Agentforce and AI capabilities, helping clients understand the art of the possible.
