Lead Salesforce Administrator (f/m/d)

At Enpal, we’re building the largest renewable energy community in Europe — and we need the right technology to power that growth. As our Lead Salesforce Administration, you’ll take technical ownership of our Salesforce platform and help shape the systems that enable our Sales, Service, and Operations teams. 

In this role, you’ll lead through technical expertise, working hand-in-hand with our Admin Team Lead to bring our Admins to the next level. You’ll be the go-to person for complex platform challenges, ensuring best practices, performance, and scalability — all while collaborating with a cross-functional team of Admins, Developers, and Product Managers to deliver end-to-end solutions.

Cross-Functional Collaboration 

• Translate business requirements into Salesforce solutions, working with Product Managers, Admins, and Developers

• Help manage and continuously improve support processes, including resolution of high-priority tickets

• Proven experience with Salesforce Sales and Service Cloud; relevant certifications are a plus 
• Strong understanding of data architecture, relational databases, and platform scalability 
• Comfortable working in agile teams and iterating quickly with diverse stakeholders 
• Confident in reviewing solution designs, mentoring Admin colleagues, and working with Developers and Product Managers 
• Be a team player who enjoys sharing knowledge and driving improvements 
• Be comfortable with technical concepts like APEX, Java, or integration frameworks 
• Bonus: familiarity with Talkdesk CTI, middleware tools, or experience in GitHub-based release processes 

We're offering:

• The chance to be part of a fast-growing and future-oriented startup: we are one of the biggest players in the solar business. 
• Help to make the world a bit better: we are all about green energy. 
• Work with the best in the industry and grow with us: there’s plenty of room for your ideas. 
• A hybrid work model, the ability to come to our Berlin office every now and then for in person discussions and events, or to be there all the time - you decide.
