We are seeking an experienced Technical Pre-Sales Consultant to bridge the gap between customer requirements, cyber security challenges, and technical solution delivery. This role combines cyber security consultancy, solution architecture, technical leadership, and business development, supporting customers throughout the early stages of complex technology programmes.
Working closely with senior customer stakeholders, architects, engineering teams, and business leaders, you will act as a trusted technical advisor, helping organisations define requirements, shape secure architectures, and develop solutions that address operational and business objectives. The position requires a strong blend of technical credibility, customer engagement skills, and commercial awareness.
- Lead technical pre-sales engagements across cyber security, networking, cloud, and information assurance domains, engaging confidently with senior responsible owners, programme directors, chief architects, and technical decision-makers.
- Capture, analyse, and translate customer business and technical requirements into solution architectures, technical proposals, statements of work, and bid responses.
- Provide technical leadership throughout the sales lifecycle, ensuring proposed solutions are technically robust, commercially viable, and aligned with customer objectives.
- Develop high-level and detailed solution architectures encompassing secure systems integration, interoperability, cross-domain information sharing, cloud infrastructure, network design, and security controls.
- Provide technical oversight and assurance for bids, proposals, and customer-facing documentation, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and alignment with industry standards and best practices.
- Support security accreditation and assurance activities, collaborating with security authorities, accrediting bodies, and customer security teams to address technical risks and define compliant architectures.
- Maintain a detailed understanding of cyber security technologies, market trends, emerging threats, and competitor capabilities, using this knowledge to identify opportunities, influence product direction, and support strategic growth initiatives.
- Represent the organisation at customer meetings, industry events, workshops, demonstrations, and technical presentations, acting as a recognised subject matter expert across security architecture, secure information exchange, and systems integration.
