We are committed to your personal development and promote continuous growth of skills through a variety of training courses (of your choice).
Guiding clients through complex technology change is the core strength of Credera. Our Technology practice helps clients with their most difficult technology problems. For example, working out which technology they should deploy, which they should close down, where they should embrace cloud, how it all integrates together etc. We are also passionate about how technology drives business change and ensuring the organisation adapts to keep pace with the changing nature of new technologies.

We are looking for well-rounded individuals able to architect and design Salesforce solutions but also understand how those solutions fit into the wider technology landscape and advise on integrations with those other solutions.
Internally, you will be a key contributor to our growing Marketing Technology practice. You will deepen the strength of our collective knowledge, develop collateral and help drive our growth through client extensions and bid support. You will have the opportunity to lead, shape and drive the growth of this exciting practice.
