Overview

At PwC, our people in business application consulting specialise in consulting services for a variety of business applications, helping clients optimise operational efficiency. These individuals analyse client needs, implement software solutions, and provide training and support for seamless integration and utilisation of business applications, enabling clients to achieve their strategic objectives. As a Salesforce consulting generalist at PwC, you will possess a broad range of consulting skills and experience across various Salesforce applications. You will provide consulting services to clients, analysing their needs, implementing software solutions, and offering training and support for effective utilisation of Salesforce applications. Your versatile knowledge will allow you to assist clients in optimising operational efficiency and achieving their strategic objectives.

As a Solution Architect, you'll own the end‑to‑end technical vision for multi‑cloud Salesforce implementations — from initial discovery through design, build, and post‑launch optimisation. You'll lead delivery teams, mentor the next generation of Salesforce consultants, and serve as a trusted advisor to C‑suite stakeholders. You'll also play a key role in growing the practice by leading pursuits, developing proposals, and building lasting client relationships. This role demands equal parts technical depth and consulting leadership. You'll be hands‑on in architecture decisions, actively engaged in solution design sessions, and accountable for the quality and scalability of what we deliver. If you're pursuing your CTA or already hold one, this is the platform to leverage it.
