Description
Department Overview
Salesforce Professional Services focuses on delivering strategic engagements that define transformational opportunities and articulate clear plans for execution of change programs. We rely on our team's expertise and specialisms to engage with executive-level customers to agree on specific business goals and actions to ignite the full value of Salesforce. Our approach considers people, process, and technology — and a successful engagement includes recommendations to the business for change to support deeper, more relevant use of the Salesforce platform.
Overview of the Role
The Business Strategy Director will lead passionate, impactful, collaborative teams focused on delivering complex, transformative strategy engagements. Partnering and collaborating directly with C-level customers, you will craft innovative, industry-specific and experience-led strategies which clearly define the vision, program success metrics and an executable roadmap which achieves desired business outcomes. Work with our key industry customers, partners, and technical delivery leaders, you will drive scale, speed to value and a sustained landscape for future success.
The ideal candidate will bring technology-enabled, large-scale Business Transformation experience and knowledge of Healthcare industry (Payer & Provider) trends, leveraging this credibility as a strategic advisor to our external and internal partners. Critical to the role is the capacity to think strategically about industry, business, product, and technical challenges as you drive customer efficiencies, cost savings, and quick innovation available on the Salesforce platform. You will possess strong facilitation and synthesis skills, with the ability to align diverse stakeholders on a common path forward, ensuring Business and IT executives embrace joint ownership for results. We believe the best industry strategists are those who obsess over the creation of customer and business value and will have a customer-centric and collaborative mentality, willing to commit to the customer, and will break down barriers to ensure customer success.
