Are you experienced in Salesforce? Do you have your admin certificate? Are you detailed? Pride yourself on being accurate? Do you have 3 to 5 hours a week available? Night owls are welcomed! We have a new implementation and are in our first year of Salesforce (NPSP). We are seeking a person who is available weekly to join our team meeting at 10 am on Fridays for an hour. We have learned these meetings are very important to having a clear understanding of challenges and things we need cleaned up. Depulication is a way of life. We believe in clean data and want someone who is analytical and can figure out if the two contact records that are the same names are the same person or different people. When they are the same help us to merge data and not loose important information. We are in the process of setting up a trouble ticket system, so that you know issues and can help resolve them as a member of our team.
