Salesforce Data 360 Architect

Harnessing deep expertise in financial analysis and business transformation, the Salesforce Data 360 Architect will lead efforts to shape how program adoption translates into measurable customer, employee, and business outcomes. The role exists to bridge the gap between complex data initiatives and quantifiable business value, ensuring that every transformation initiative is assessed not just for its potential, but for its real, demonstrable impact. Embedded within a technology-driven marketing and advertising environment, this role demands a strategic mindset able to navigate evolving data landscapes and support sophisticated Salesforce Data Cloud implementations.

The primary focus of the Salesforce Data 360 Architect is to build comprehensive measurement frameworks that link digital programs directly to tangible business results. By quantifying both the upside of new investments and the risks from delayed or stalled initiatives, the role provides clarity and confidence for business decision-makers. Working closely with consulting teams, this architect guides transformation programs from initial discovery through to value realisation, supporting governance and steering committee reporting with clear financial narratives that track performance over time.

Day-to-day responsibilities involve managing multifaceted consulting delivery efforts where facilitation of client workshops, interviews, and document reviews sits alongside ongoing collaboration with cross-functional teams. The Salesforce Data 360 Architect will apply a mix of quantitative and qualitative techniques to prioritise initiatives, develop ROI analyses, business cases, and customer value assessments. Leveraging advanced Excel modelling skills, this individual will create detailed financial models from the ground up, demonstrating the precise impact of proposed solutions and enabling informed executive decision-making.

Technology underpins every aspect of the role, with a particular focus on Salesforce.com and Salesforce Data Cloud platforms. These tools enable the aggregation and analysis of vast datasets critical to building value assessments and continuous improvement strategies. The architect’s work drives not only the adoption of cloud-based data solutions but also ensures they deliver clear, measurable value aligned to strategic organisational goals.

Operating remotely within this permanent role provides the flexibility to engage with a broad network of internal teams—including account management, creative, analytics, and operations—as well as partner agencies. Clear communication and coordination skills are essential to assess feasibility, gather requirements, and validate recommendations amidst complex programme delivery. This matrixed working environment demands a high degree of autonomy and the ability to function effectively under ambiguous conditions where data points and success metrics are actively defined through the consulting journey.

Candidates ideally possess a bachelor’s degree with a preference for business, finance, marketing, or data analytics backgrounds, coupled with a minimum of seven years’ experience in financial planning and analysis, corporate finance, strategy consulting, or digital transformation. The successful candidate will have at least five years’ experience creating and interpreting financial models, analysing large datasets, and translating analytical insights into compelling presentations for senior stakeholders. Proficiency in PowerPoint is expected to articulate these findings into cohesive business recommendations.

Beyond technical ability, a curiosity-driven mindset and a broad approach to problem-solving that draws inspiration from diverse fields can be valuable assets. Experience in value engineering or advisory roles, particularly those involving the business impact of AI-enabled transformation, will enhance the architect’s ability to drive innovation within creative and dynamic environments. Adaptability and a solutions-oriented attitude are necessary to lead through ambiguity and evolving client requirements with confidence.

Benefits linked to this role include participation in a retirement savings plan, support for charitable initiatives with paid or unpaid time off, childcare assistance, and medical, dental, and eye care plans. These contribute to a well-rounded employment package for someone tasked with a critical role in aligning data initiatives to business success.

This role sits within the marketing and advertising services sector, supporting the delivery of data-driven insights and transformation projects that underpin commercial growth and client value realisation. The Salesforce Data 360 Architect will be instrumental in translating technology investments into measurable business outcomes within this fast-evolving industry.
