Project Manager

Part-Time Salesforce Project Manager / Salesforce Consultant

Contract | Part-Time / Project-Based | Flexible Schedule

About the Role

We are looking for an experienced Project Manager with hands-on Salesforce configuration experience to support Salesforce projects on an as-needed, part-time basis. This is an ideal opportunity for an independent Salesforce consultant, freelancer, or contractor who enjoys staying involved in a variety of projects without committing to a full-time workload.

Our Project Managers provide an extra layer of oversight throughout Salesforce delivery and solutioning. They help ensure projects stay organized, requirements are clearly defined, solutions are practical, and deliverables meet client expectations. Depending on the project, this person may also jump in directly to configure Salesforce, troubleshoot issues, build solutions, or support the team with hands-on implementation work.

This is not expected to be a 40-hour-per-week position . Work will vary based on active projects and client needs, making this a good fit for someone looking for flexible, occasional contract work or a consulting side engagement.
