Business Systems Lead

TLDR

Lead the technical and operational management of Wifinity’s core SaaS platforms, focusing on Salesforce and its integrations while overseeing a small team of business systems specialists.

About us:
Wifinity was founded in 2007 to solve a problem—our armed forces were struggling with reliable connectivity. While living in barracks, often in remote locations, ordering a landline and booking in an engineer just wasn’t an option.

And that problem isn’t exclusive to the military, either. Students living in University accommodation, families visiting holiday resorts, or living in shared accommodation and retirement communities.

Conventional home broadband doesn’t always work for them.

Wifinity is different. We offer the same benefits as traditional broadband, such as super-fast speeds, WiFi, and secure and private networks, but none of the downsides. We even offer Pay As You Go and flexible contracts, so customers only pay for what they need without hefty penalties or long contract terms.

We take the complexity out of connectivity.

The opportunity:
The Business Systems Lead will be the technical and operational owner of Wifinity’s core SaaS platforms, with a primary focus on Salesforce and its associated integrations. This is a hands-on, expert-level role overseeing a small Business Systems team, acting as the SME across CRM, workflow, automation, data flows, and crossplatform integrations. 

The ideal candidate will have extensive Salesforce experience, including delivery of implementation or optimisation projects, and strong familiarity with supporting SaaS ecosystems in a scaling organisation. Experience with Atlassian tools and future-readiness for ERP integration will help shape the business’s systems roadmap. 

Key areas of focus:

1. SaaS Platform Ownership 

  • Act as technical owner for Salesforce, Marketing Cloud, Atlassian tools (Jira/Confluence), Stripe integrations, and other business-critical SaaS platforms. 
  • Oversee platform configuration, security, user management, licensing, and vendor relationships. 
  • Optimise SaaS spend by conducting regular license audits and evaluating the ROI of the existing tech stack 
  • Ensure systems meet operational requirements around reliability, availability, compliance, and security. 

2. Salesforce Leadership 

  • Serve as the company’s primary Salesforce SME. 
  • Own configuration, automation (Flows), permissions, object design, reporting, dashboards and integrations. 
  • Lead Salesforce enhancement work, platform improvements, and participate in roadmap planning. 
  • Work across the business to streamline business processes using Salesforce. 
  • Drive user adoption and change management strategies to ensure new features and platforms are effectively used by the business. 
  • Establish and maintain a robust Sandbox management and release strategy (CI/CD) to ensure stable deployments 

3. Team Leadership & Development 

  • Line manage two business systems specialists/administrators. 
  • Provide technical leadership, code/configuration reviews, and sign-off for platform changes. 
  • Build a collaborative, high performing team capability aligned with business goals. 
  • Mentor team members on career progression, technical best practices, and declarative development standards. 

4. Systems Delivery & Implementation 

  • Lead delivery of system changes, integrations, enhancements, migrations, and optimisation projects. 
  • Manage or contribute to Salesforce implementation projects, including requirements, design, testing, release, and documentation. 
  • Ensure structured change control and quality assurance is embedded across the team. 

5. Integration & Data Architecture 

  • Maintain integration patterns across Salesforce, Atlassian, Stripe, finance systems, and operational applications. 
  • Work with engineering on APIs, middleware, authentication, data synchronisation, and monitoring. 
  • Create and maintain data governance frameworks ensuring accuracy and consistency across platforms. 
  • Act as the 'Source of Truth' architect, ensuring data integrity between CRM, Billing (Stripe), and Finance (Access) systems 

6. Atlassian Platform Management 

  • Own Jira and Confluence configuration, project structures, workflows, reporting, permission models, and governance. 
  • Support engineering, product and operations in optimising work management and documentation processes. 
  • 7. Future ERP Strategy & Preparation 
  • Lead the technical 'Discovery Phase' for ERP, documenting current-state vs. future-state data flows. 
  • Contribute to exploration, selection and future implementation of an ERP system. 
  • Ensure architectural alignment between ERP, Salesforce and other SaaS platforms. 
  • Provide technical guidance on workflows, data structures, and integration models as ERP discussions mature.
