JOB SUMMARY

Storyblok is hiring a Salesforce Lead to own Salesforce architecture, execution, governance, data quality, integrations, and release discipline across our GTM workflows.

The role also leads future platform evaluation for Salesforce Data 360, Salesforce Marketing Cloud Advanced, Adobe Marketing Cloud, Oracle Responsys, and related CDP needs, and, if a platform is selected, leads implementation planning and execution with RevOps, Marketing Operations, Data, Finance, Legal, vendors, and external partners.
