London & South UK | Home-based with customer travel

We’re working with a high-growth, global data protection and cyber resilience vendor that is continuing to take serious market share across the backup, recovery and storage space. This is a business with real momentum behind it — record bookings and revenue, 5,000+ active enterprise customers globally, a strong international footprint across 30 countries, and customer installations in 80+ countries. The company is profitable, debt-free, continuing to win large enterprise deals, and has built a reputation for strong customer retention, product innovation, and market disruption.
They are now looking for a Senior Systems Engineer / Pre-Sales Specialist to play a key role across the London and South UK region.
This is a home-based role, but it is not a desk-only position. You’ll be expected to get in front of customers, partners and prospects across London, with additional travel across the South of the UK where required.
The Opportunity
This is a big-impact role for the region. You’ll work closely with the sales team as the technical lead through the sales cycle — helping customers understand their current backup, recovery and storage challenges, shaping the right solution, running technical workshops, delivering demos, supporting POCs, and positioning the value of the technology against major competitors in the market.
The company has strong brand momentum, a product that genuinely lands well with customers, and a leadership team investing heavily in the UK. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants more ownership, more visibility, and a chance to help drive growth in one of the company’s key regions.
