Gumtree Accelerates Digital Transformation with Trigg Digital to Unlock Efficiency and Growth

Gumtree, one of the UK’s most popular online marketplaces, has appointed Trigg Digital as its Strategic Salesforce Partner to implement a modular, future-ready CRM platform to fuel its next phase of growth.

As Gumtree sharpens its focus on product innovation, operational excellence, and delivering brilliant experiences for users, the business is investing in a scalable platform that brings together all core business functions across a diverse portfolio – from services and property, to jobs, media sales and ops, finance, and customer support – into a single, connected Customer 360 view.

Gumtree selected Trigg Digital for its proven expertise in complex, multi-vertical marketplace environments. The new CRM solution will deliver a flexible, composable architecture that accelerates time-to-market for new product offerings and ensures a consistent, data-driven experience across every customer touchpoint.

It also lays the foundations for Agentforce – Salesforce’s AI-powered automation and insights engine – designed to boost productivity, reduce operational costs, and enable smarter, faster cross-selling, upselling, enhanced customer satisfaction, and more informed decision-making.

This partnership represents a pivotal step in Gumtree’s mission to build a more responsive, intelligent, and sustainable marketplace – delivering greater value to its millions of users as the business enters an exciting new chapter.

Andy Harper, Chief Operating Officer at Gumtree, shared: “Partnering with Trigg Digital is a significant milestone in Gumtree’s transformation journey. Their deep understanding of complex marketplace environments and proven Salesforce expertise made them the clear choice. This new platform will give us the agility to innovate faster, streamline our operations, and deliver a more connected, personalised experience for our customers across every touchpoint.“

Euan Begley, Head of Strategy & Business Ops at Gumtree, added: “Our collaboration with Trigg Digital is central to enabling a more agile, data-driven Gumtree. The new CRM platform will streamline how we work across teams, reduce complexity, and give us the strategic flexibility to respond faster to market opportunities – all while keeping the customer experience at the heart of what we do.“

Steven Paul, Chief Executive Officer at Trigg Digital, added: “Partnering with Gumtree is a particularly meaningful milestone for me personally. Having spent a large part of my career working in marketplaces, this feels like a full-circle moment. Gumtree is an iconic brand with a clear vision for the future, and we’re excited to bring our deep Salesforce expertise to support their transformation. Together, we’re building a platform that empowers innovation, drives operational excellence, and puts the customer experience front and centre.“
