CRM Transformation Lead (Salesforce)
We are seeking a driven Salesforce Specialist to act as the backbone of our digital future. This is a unique opportunity to function like a startup within an established educational leader, driving a mid implementation project that will transform the entire student and employer journey.
Why Windsor Forest?
Windsor Forest leads the way in technology adoption across UK Further Education. We don’t just follow digital trends; we host the conversations that shape them. In 2024 and 2025, our campuses hosted major summits featuring the Government’s Chief Technology Officer, Google for Education’s UK Team, Salesforce’s Senior Director of Education Strategy and Jisc’s Director of AI. By joining us, you aren’t just managing a CRM - you will be at the heart of a college group that the entire sector looks to for what comes next.
The Role
Acting as the bridge between our technical implementation partners and our staff, you will translate complex functionality into intuitive tools. Whether you are configuring flows, delivering engaging training sessions, or ensuring data integrity, your work will directly impact how our sector thinks about CRM.
New to the education sector? That’s absolutely fine! We value industry experience and fresh thinking. We don’t expect you to know everything on day one - we value a hunger to learn and a proactive attitude. If you dig into Trailhead for fun, get satisfaction from a flow that finally works, and want your fingerprints on something that shapes a whole sector we want you on our team. You won't be working in a silo. You will have a seat at the table with senior leadership and technical experts to ensure project value.

To own and grow a Salesforce platform that is still being built, shaping it from the ground up.
