The problem

Senior in-house Salesforce capacity is hard to hire and harder to keep.

Hiring a senior in-house Salesforce admin is hard, slow, and expensive — and the market for that talent is tightening as in-house jobs at Salesforce customers pay above what most consultancies will match. Customers are losing internal Salesforce capacity faster than they can rebuild it. Managed services books in the UK are growing 30-50% year on year, and the most successful Run Team relationships average five-plus years per account.

The Run Team is built to be that long-term capability, owned by a senior team, without you carrying the recruitment risk.

What you’ll have
  • Scoped monthly capacity with reserved senior hours
  • Published SLAs you can hold us to
  • Roadmap ownership — proactive, not reactive ticket-handling (this is the difference between a three-year and a seven-year relationship)
  • Release management and DevOps discipline on every change
  • A monthly executive review
Scope

A clear line between what’s in and what isn’t.

Included

  • Reserved senior architect, developer, and admin capacity per the agreed tier
  • Defined SLAs for incident response, change request, and release cadence
  • Active roadmap management — quarterly planning, prioritisation, business-case input
  • CI / CD pipeline (Copado, Gearset, or equivalent) on every release
  • Sandbox management, deployment, and rollback
  • Monthly executive review and quarterly roadmap session

Not included

  • Net-new transformation programmes (those are Sprints or Vertical Accelerators)
  • Capacity that exceeds the agreed tier (handled by explicit overflow at agreed rates)
  • 24/7 break-fix support beyond the agreed SLA tier

How we deliver

Principal account owner, senior architect technical lead, a team of consultants flexed to the tier. Continuity is structural — the same team holds an account month-to-month.

Frequently asked questions
Why not hire internally?
You can — but in-house senior Salesforce architects in the UK now command £100-150k base, in Ireland higher, and they’re hard to retain. A Run Team gives you the same capability without the recruitment, training, and retention overhead, and with deeper bench when the work spikes.
Will the same people work on our org each month?
Yes. Continuity is the point. We don’t rotate accounts mid-engagement, and we share an internal owner so handover is structured if anyone moves on.
Can we surge capacity for a specific quarter?
Yes. Overflow is built into the contract at agreed rates. You can dial up for a release, then dial down.
What’s your typical tenure?
We aim for five-plus years per account. The published target reflects what differentiates a roadmap-owning Run Team from a ticket-handler — and is the difference between a real relationship and a transactional one.
