CRM & Enablement Tools Manager

We are seeking a highly skilled and proactive CRM & Enablement Tools Manager to oversee the CRM product roadmap for Retail Investments, acting as the strategic bridge between Sales stakeholders and the delivery team. This individual would lead discovery, translate needs into prioritized user stories, and govern solution design to ensure the simplest scalable solutions, strong data integrity and high user adoption across the organization.

The ideal candidate brings deep hands‑on experience with Salesforce, thrives in a dynamic environment with competing priorities, and is naturally inquisitive—someone who looks beyond 'what' to understand the 'why.' They don’t just execute tasks; they identify improvements, anticipate needs, and help elevate our overall CRM and sales enablement ecosystem. In addition, the candidate should demonstrate adaptability and a forward-thinking mindset regarding the integration of emerging AI technologies. Familiarity with the latest AI-powered features in CRM platforms will position the candidate to unlock new opportunities for efficiency and innovation within our sales enablement landscape.
