Description
📍 Location: London
🏙️ Office requirement: hybrid once a week in office
📝 Employment type: 12 months maternity cover
At GWI we’re always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we’re looking for a Junior System Administrator to play a key role in our Business Operations team in London. If that’s you, and making a difference gets you out of bed in the morning, keep reading. It could be the start of something, well, extraordinary.
Sounds great, what will I be doing? 🤔
As our Junior System Administrator you’ll be helping to maintain, improve, and support the Salesforce platform that underpins many of GWI’s key processes. You’ll be part of a collaborative team of admins, and you’ll be trained and mentored on the job, gaining experience across system configuration, data management, user support, and process improvement. This is a great opportunity to kick-start your Salesforce career while making a real impact in a fast-paced, supportive environment.
It’s also fun; shaking things up is what working for a growing company is all about. So you’ll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment as we grow.
What do I need to bring with me? 🧳
You’ll need to be able to demonstrate the core skills this role requires. You don't have to tick all the boxes right away; the important thing is that you’re willing to learn. Here’s what the team will be looking for:
👉 Strong curiosity for technology, systems, and how things operate, coupled with a passion for continuous learning, especially concerning Salesforce.
👉 A logical approach to tasks and problem-solving is crucial, along with a keen eye for accuracy and detail, particularly when working with data.
👉 "Can-do" attitude and strong written and verbal communication skills to effectively contribute to a supportive team.
👉 Experience working in a fast-paced environment, along with the ability to manage time effectively, prioritize tasks, and stay organized.
👉 While not strictly required, a basic understanding of Microsoft Office (especially Excel), data structures/databases, and familiarity with Salesforce Trailhead (ideally with some beginner Admin modules completed) would be beneficial.
Equally important is attitude. We want people who think big (to make an impact), ask why (to find a better way), and show respect (to everyone, at every level, all the time). Those are our values, exemplified by our leadership team, and they’re a big part of what we’re looking for in you.
Interview steps 👟
👉 Preliminary phone call with the Talent Team (no video required)
👉 First video interview with the hiring managers
👉 Second (and final*) video interview with the hiring panel, often including a presentation, followed by a values conversation with members of the wider GWI community.
Don’t be alarmed if there are other stages in the process, it’s all part of the plan for some of our roles.
