Whilst no week is ever the same, here are some ideas of what will fill your day;
Driving our pre-sales engagements by bringing a deep understanding of how technology can solve complex business problems.
Using your technical knowledge and experience, you'll deliver outstanding technical presentations, facilitate creative solution workshops, lead proof of concept labs, and, when needed - get into the detail of how technology works.
Staying sharp on the latest products, solutions and market trends, becoming the 'go to' technical specialist that customers trust, enabling us to build lasting and meaningful relationships.
You'll be part of a tightly coordinated team of extraordinary, versatile, and multi-skilled experts. While you love working under your initiative, you also see the unseen value of close teamwork. You thrive in helping others and always see opportunities to exchange knowledge to develop yourself and your colleagues.
Not afraid of taking on responsibilities. This is an EMEA wide role and as such carries with it the need to be self-driven and use your skills to build relationships, formulate plans, and execute to ultimately meet the goals of the organization. Some travel will be required.
Work with product development teams to ensure customer feedback is incorporated into future product releases.
