Role Overview
AWS is looking for a Principal Quantum & Cryptography Sales Specialist to lead the adoption of quantum computing, cryptography, and cybersecurity services across the full breadth of UK Public Sector — spanning Central Government, National Security, Defence, Transport, NHS, Local Government, Education, and Non-Profit Organisations. You'll help the UK's most important public institutions build cybersecurity resilience today and prepare for a quantum-safe future.
This is a rare opportunity to own a cross-cutting technology domain at a pivotal moment — where advanced persistent threats demand immediate action, and the emergence of quantum computing is reshaping the cryptographic landscape. You'll own the commercial vision for AWS quantum, cryptography, and security services across all UK Public Sector segments, working at the intersection of enterprise sales, emerging technology, and public sector transformation.
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.

Key Job Responsibilities
- Lead complex, high-value sales engagements across the full UK Public Sector — from classified national security environments to NHS trusts, local councils, and educational bodies
- Develop and execute the GTM strategy for AWS quantum, cryptography, and cybersecurity services including Amazon Braket, post-quantum TLS, AWS Security Hub, GuardDuty, KMS, and CloudHSM
- Work with senior public sector leaders to position AWS as the platform of choice for cybersecurity resilience and quantum-safe transformation
- Operate with genuine autonomy to shape strategy, build pipeline, and close deals that matter
A Day in the Life
You might start the morning preparing for a briefing with a central government CISO on cryptographic modernisation and post-quantum readiness, then jump to a call with an NHS trust's IT security lead exploring how AWS can strengthen their threat detection and data protection posture. Afternoons could see you building a business case with your Solutions Architect for a quantum-safe pilot with a defence organisation, or shaping a deal structure that navigates classified procurement alongside NHS framework requirements. You'll regularly connect with account teams, security-cleared partners, and AWS product teams — translating frontline insight into action. Your customers range from CISOs in Whitehall and security directors in national security to IT directors in NHS trusts, local authority digital leads, and heads of research computing in universities.
