Hello, Heather. There are a couple of qualities that I think are key: PM experience, he\she must share your vision and understanding of your marketing and sales processes. That pretty much makes an ideal Admin. If you want to go more in-depth into qualifications, certifications and so on, I can recommend you reading this article (https://www.omi.co/administration/how-to-choose-a-salesforce-administrator-for-your-business/) which is actually a guide to picking salesforce admin for your business. So I guess it’ll be more useful than anything I’ll say in a short post here.
