About the role
Our client is a specialized business consultancy and software integration firm that helps organizations streamline operations through cloud-based technologies and intelligent business systems. They work closely with clients to design, implement, and optimize scalable digital solutions, enabling businesses to automate processes, improve customer engagement, and build more connected technology ecosystems.
As they continue to grow, they are looking for an experienced Salesforce Pardot Consultant to help clients design, implement, and optimize effective B2B marketing automation solutions using Salesforce Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (Pardot).
The Role
We're looking for a Salesforce Pardot Consultant (Marketing Cloud Account Engagement) with strong hands-on experience building and optimizing marketing automation workflows within the Salesforce ecosystem.
Pardot / Marketing Cloud Account Engagement is the primary platform for this role.
You'll work directly with clients to understand their marketing and lead management requirements and translate them into effective Pardot solutions—from lead capture, segmentation, scoring, and nurturing through to campaign automation, reporting, and Salesforce CRM alignment.
This is a client-facing role that requires someone who is comfortable combining hands-on technical execution with consulting and stakeholder communication.
Experience with the broader Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC) ecosystem is valuable, but it is considered a secondary skill rather than the primary requirement.
