Why should an internal Randstad colleague apply? * Rare Skill Visibility: Salesforce on platform experience (certified is a plus) and complex CMS governance skills .This role places your niche expertise on a global stage. * Direct Leadership Access: You will report directly to Global Validation Lead, joining a supportive, highly integrated team. * A True Talent Homebase: As part of the Talent & Expertise Group (TEG) within Global IT, your personal growth, Great Conversations, and career training are explicitly managed by a dedicated Community of Practice. ## Description Summary: We are hiring a Global Configuration Lead (x-one) to bridge the gap between global IT product development and local market deployment. You will own the technical impact analysis, sandbox management, and cross-functional orchestration to ensure our global Salesforce and CMS core solutions seamlessly adapt to local market and compliance requirements. Important Note: This is an Internal Governance, Architecture, and Configuration role. It is NOT a software engineering/hard-core coding position, nor is it a functional market-facing training role. Working Conditions * Location: Netherlands or CET timezone - fulltime * Travel Requirements: Occasional global travel may be required to work hands-on with local market teams during early-stage rollouts. What critical problem will this hire solve? As Randstad consolidates its digital capabilities into the x-one ecosystem, our global functional product changes frequently collide with diverse local compliance and legislative rules. While Jose and Anna focus on functional, market-facing workshops, you will be the internal technical engine. You will perform technical impact analysis from the product side, configure dependencies on-platform, manage sandbox environments, and connect the dots horizontally across 12 separate vertical IT leads. What will you achieve in this role? * Architect Configuration Safeguards: Dissect complex technical/functional documentation from Product Owners and translate them into standardized, practical configuration structures. * Manage Sandbox & Deployments: Own the technical blueprint and execute configurations for complex Salesforce environments and CMS-driven portals. * Orchestrate Cross-Functional Dots: Act as the "interpreter" between global compliance (data protection, legal, security) and vertical product teams, ensuring critical safety guardrails flow naturally down to local market peers. ## Related Videos - [Improving quality with Agentic AI with Rovo Dev and Xray](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2005-improving-quality-with-agentic-ai-with-rovo-dev-and-xray) - [42 x 2 Canvases Later: Two Years, Two Minds, Many Lessons](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1458-42-x-2-canvases-later-two-years-two-minds-many-lessons) - [Navigating the Corporate Jungle: Life as a Developer in a large Company](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/621-navigating-the-corporate-jungle-life-as-a-developer-in-a-large-company) - [A Founder's Journey : From Startup Chaos to Purposeful Growth](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1926-a-founder-s-journey-from-startup-chaos-to-purposeful-growth) - [Collaboration Quantified: Lessons from Open Source Developer Networks](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1422-collaboration-quantified-lessons-from-open-source-developer-networks) - [Local Candidates vs International Talent - Building the Very Best Dev Team](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1067-local-candidates-vs-international-talent-building-the-very-best-dev-team) ## Related Articles - [Best Companies to Work For in Berlin: Top 14 Companies in 2023 ](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/188-best-companies-to-work-for-in-berlin-top-14-companies-in-2023) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [The Best Job Search Websites of 2025](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/368-the-best-job-search-websites-of-2025) - [Top HR Tech Conferences in 2024](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/303-top-hr-tech-conferences-in-2024) - [Best Companies to work for in London: Top 25 Companies in 2023](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/187-best-companies-to-work-for-in-london-top-25-companies-in-2023) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers)
