At ANS, we're helping organisations unlock the power of Microsoft technologies to transform how they work. As demand for AI and automation continues to accelerate, we're looking for an experienced AI Business Applications Presales Solution Architect to join our growing Copilot + Power Platform Practice.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is passionate about AI, business applications, and helping customers solve real-world challenges through Microsoft's modern technology stack.

You'll work alongside our sales teams, customers, partners, and Microsoft to design innovative AI and low-code solutions that deliver measurable business outcomes. From executive workshops and discovery sessions through to solution design and demonstrations, you'll play a pivotal role in winning new business and shaping customer transformation journeys.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Leading customer discovery sessions to understand business challenges, goals, and opportunities.
  • Designing innovative solutions using Microsoft Copilot, Power Platform, Dynamics 365 and wider Business Applications technologies.
  • Supporting the sales process through solution architecture, presentations, demonstrations, workshops, and proof of concepts.
  • Acting as a trusted advisor to customers, helping them understand the value and potential of AI-powered business transformation.
  • Working closely with Account Managers, New Business Sales teams, Microsoft, and strategic partners to identify and develop opportunities.
  • Translating technical capabilities into clear business benefits for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Supporting proposal creation, bid responses, and customer-facing solution documentation.
  • Staying up to date with emerging Microsoft technologies, particularly within AI, Copilot, Power Platform, and the Business Applications ecosystem.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
