Life on the team
Computacenter is looking for a European Partner Technologist to help shape how we connect partner innovation with our technology strategy, customer propositions, and go-to-market priorities across Europe. This is a highly visible, technology and relationship-led role for someone who can work across technology teams, strategic vendors, and country stakeholders to turn emerging capability into meaningful customer and business opportunity.
You will sit at the intersection of Computacenter’s European Technology Office, our strategic partner ecosystem, and our wider country and service line teams. The role is designed to strengthen how we understand partner roadmaps, identify innovation, assess emerging vendors, and align the right opportunities with our technology-area strategies. You will work closely with European Chief Technologists, senior stakeholders, and partner organizations, helping Computacenter maintain an independent, vendor-neutral view while ensuring we stay connected to the technologies and propositions that matter most to our customers.
What you’ll do
- Act as a key technical interface between Computacenter and our strategic European partners, understanding partner strategies, technology roadmaps, and emerging capabilities.
- Connect partner innovation with Computacenter’s technology-area strategies, service line direction, and go-to-market priorities.
- Work with European Chief Technologists, country teams, and service lines to identify where partner capability can address portfolio gaps or create compelling customer propositions.
- Represent Computacenter in partner technical advisory boards, executive forums, QBRs, and strategic reviews, ensuring our customer, market, and technology perspectives help influence partner direction.
- Support European vendor segmentation, helping identify strategic partner priorities, areas for investment, and where a preferred technology or vendor approach could create greater customer, technical, or commercial value.
- Provide technical governance and coordination for new and emerging partners, assessing strategic fit and orchestrating engagement across the business.
- Track disruptive market developments and emerging technologies, translating insight into practical opportunities for Computacenter and its customers.
- Help shape partner capability development, including certification, accreditation, and enablement priorities aligned to future market demand.
