Job Summary
Systems Administrator
University Advancement raises private philanthropic support for the University of Utah — funding scholarships, research, and programs across campus. The Salesforce Administrator is the steward of the system of record behind that fundraising: donor relationships, gift processing workflows, and the campaign infrastructure relied on by gift officers university-wide. This position ensures the secure, reliable operation of the Salesforce environment that Advancement and campus fundraising partners depend on to generate donations and steward donors.
Working within the Information Services team, the Salesforce Administrator partners with Business Analysts, Data Analysts, developers, and trainers to configure, secure, and continuously improve the fundraising platform. The ideal candidate combines strong Salesforce administration skills with an understanding of fundraising operations, and thrives in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.
This position reports to the Associate Director of IT within the Information Services team.
Please note, the posted salary range reflects the compensation range within which we will make an offer. Offers are determined based on qualifications, skills, and experience. Placement at the top of the range is reserved for candidates who demonstrate exceptional qualifications and experience directly aligned with the role.
Responsibilities
The duties and responsibilities of the Salesforce Administrator include:
Platform security and data stewardship
- Safeguard donor and constituent data through security-conscious user and access management (roles, profiles, permissions, public groups, sharing rules, and OWD settings) protecting sensitive philanthropic records used across the university
- Ensure continuity of donor records and gift data through backup monitoring and recovery readiness
Fundraising platform configuration and enhancement
- Configure and enhance the tools gift officers rely on daily, including Flow, assignment rules, approval processes, fields, page layouts, record types, dynamic layouts, apps, actions, custom settings, mobile administration, and reports and dashboards
- Translate fundraising business requirements into effective technical designs, partnering with Business Analysts, Data Analysts, and developers on enhancements
- Manage sandbox environments and drive testing and validation of configuration and code-based changes
- Administer releases using change sets or app-based DevOps tools (Copado, Gearset, or similar)
- Monitor and maintain the order-of-execution integrity of automated processes during record creation and updates
Integrated fundraising systems
- Implement and maintain integrated applications supporting fundraising operations, including GiveCampus (online giving), Conga and DocuSign (gift documentation), FormAssembly (forms and constituent engagement), Salesforce Maps, Jitterbit (donor data synchronization), and custom REST API integrations
User support, training, and documentation
- Resolve escalated support issues for end users across Advancement, PBS Utah, and campus fundraising partners
- Collaborate with the Talent Enhancement team to guide user training and document platform enhancements
- Maintain clear, current technical and process documentation
Minimum Qualifications
EQUIVALENCY STATEMENT: 1 year of higher education can be substituted for 1 year of directly related work experience (Example: bachelor’s degree = 4 years of directly related work experience).

Preferences
- Demonstrated understanding of fundraising operations (donor lifecycle, gift processing, campaign management) strongly preferred
- 1+ year of Salesforce administration experience with active Salesforce Administrator Certification
- Familiarity with Kindsight Ascend managed package or the ability to ramp-up quickly to a complex managed package. If you have fundraising experience, we expect you to get up to speed with our managed package in 3 months or less. Without fundraising experience, we expect your training to take at least 6 months to learn business processes.
- Deep understanding of the Salesforce security model: profiles, permissions, role hierarchies, record- and field-level access
- Proficiency with declarative configuration: Flow, Process Builder, validation rules, custom objects, page layouts, record types
- Experience with reports and dashboards
- Familiarity with Apex, custom metadata, and custom settings
- Familiarity with SQL / SOQL
- Familiarity with Salesforce-integrated marketing solutions, preferably Marketing Cloud
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, applied to both technical troubleshooting and fundraising process improvement
- Clear written and verbal communication — able to explain technical concepts to fundraisers and campus partners, and business needs to developers
- Curiosity and aptitude for learning new technologies, tools, and Advancement business processes
- Customer-service mindset with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring the quality and reliability of systems gift officers depend on
- Self-directed in managing multiple priorities and deadlines, while working collaboratively across a cross-functional, mission-driven team

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Salesforce Administrator
Frame your Salesforce certifications as degree equivalents
Your Australian three-year bachelor's degree satisfies the E-3 visa specialty occupation requirement. Pair it with your Salesforce Administrator or Advanced Administrator certification to reinforce the degree-to-role connection when your employer files the Labor Condition Application.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
Search DOL's Office of Foreign Labor Certification disclosure data for companies that have recently filed LCAs for Salesforce or CRM Administrator roles. Prior LCA activity signals an employer already understands the sponsorship process and won't treat your case as a first-time experiment.
Use Migrate Mate to handle your LCA and filing paperwork
Once you have a job offer, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to manage your Labor Condition Application, DS-160, and consulate preparation. This removes the compliance burden from smaller employers who'd otherwise hesitate over the process.
Address specialty occupation before the interview ends
Hiring managers sometimes assume Salesforce Administrator roles are too generalist for E-3 eligibility. Clarify upfront that the position requires a degree in a specific field, pointing to the DOL's occupational definition for database and systems administrators as supporting evidence.
Time your consulate appointment around your start date
The E-3 visa is issued at the consulate, not by USCIS, so your start date depends on when your Sydney, Melbourne, or Perth appointment clears. Build at least four weeks of buffer between your offer acceptance and your first day to account for appointment availability and passport return.
Prepare a role-specific specialty occupation letter
Your employer needs to document why the Salesforce Administrator position requires at minimum a bachelor's degree in a relevant discipline. A strong support letter references the complexity of your org's configuration, integration requirements, and data architecture rather than using generic job description language.
E-3 Visa Salesforce Administrator: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Salesforce Administrator jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. You can filter by job title and see which employers have E-3-relevant filing history. General job boards surface plenty of Salesforce Administrator openings but give no visibility into whether a company has sponsored international candidates before or understands the E-3 process.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Salesforce Administrator role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the position genuinely requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field such as information systems, computer science, or business information technology. Roles that accept any degree regardless of field can face scrutiny during the Labor Condition Application review. The stronger the connection between your degree discipline and the Salesforce configuration work described in the job, the cleaner the specialty occupation case.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Salesforce Administrator roles?
The E-3 has a 10,500-slot annual allocation that has never been fully used, meaning there's no lottery and no waiting for a fiscal year registration window. The H-1B visa requires an annual lottery with significantly lower selection odds. For an Australian Salesforce Administrator, the E-3 is the direct path: apply when you have an offer, schedule your consulate appointment, and start work without a randomized selection process delaying everything by a year or more.
Can I switch Salesforce Administrator employers while on an E-3?
Yes, but you need a new LCA certified by the DOL and a new E-3 visa stamp before starting with the new employer. Unlike the H-1B portability rules, the E-3 does not allow you to begin work with a new employer on a pending petition. Plan for a consulate appointment in Australia or a third country if your current visa stamp has expired, and build that timeline into any negotiations with the incoming employer.
