Context: Strategic Optimization & Technical Industrialization

Missions

🌟 Reason for Being

As part of a leading goods retailer's Wholesale transformation, Pipedrive has been chosen as one CRM solution to manage commercial pipelines and customer relationships across multiple countries and different business models (B2B, Resellers). However, to maximize its value, there is a need to transition from a decentralized usage to a highly industrialized and standardized ecosystem.

The mission as an external Pipedrive expert is to unlock the full potential of the platform. Acting as the technical architect and operational enabler, the role involves optimizing the tool’s advanced features, automating repetitive tasks to save time for central and local teams, and establishing a unified "Golden Standard" of CRM workflows across all participating countries.

Important context: so far, Pipedrive is not deployed yet for the partners management on the reseller business model. It has been used for some months now to manage the Club&Entities customers (enterprises, clubs) quote requests only.

🎯 Key Responsibilities

1. Advanced Feature Optimization & Audit

   • Conduct a deep-dive audit of the current Pipedrive setups to identify gaps, underutilized features, and data clean-up opportunities.

   • Configure and deploy advanced capabilities.

   • Design and implement robust central and local dashboards to provide business leaders with real-time visibility on pipeline health, conversion rates, and sales velocity.

2. Country Enablement & Configuration Efficiency

   • Structuralize the process of onboarding and assisting new countries, replacing repetitive manual configurations with scalable solutions.

   • Create clear, accessible documentation and deliver training sessions ("Train the Trainer" approach) for local CRM champions.

   • Act as the level-3 expert to solve complex configuration requests.

3. Workflow Standardization & Automation

   • Standardize pipeline stages, lost/won reasons, and data entry rules to ensure data consistency across all European countries, using the current Marketplace example to learn about “success stories” and reuse best practices.

   • Build automated workflows within Pipedrive (e.g., auto-creating tasks, updating lead status, sending automated template follow-ups) to eliminate manual administration for sales teams.

   • Ensure the Pipedrive standard structure is ready to seamlessly interface with future "United" tools (like the future Bike Leasing or MyClub CRM pipelines).

Success Indicators (KPIs)

• Standardization Rate: 100% of the active countries aligned under the newly defined "Wholesale Blueprint" configuration.

• Time-to-Onboard: Reduction in time (hours/days) required by the central team to configure Pipedrive for a new country.

• Automation Adoption: Number of manual tasks eliminated through Pipedrive native automation workflows.

• Data Completeness: Improvement in the accuracy and completeness of key business fields filled by local sales representatives.

• GPM Assisted Commerce / Wholesale Domain Leader: aligning CRM capabilities with global B2B sales strategies and governance.

• Wholesale Product Managers : coordinating on how Pipedrive should eventually feed or receive data from specific vertical solutions.
