Technical PreSales Consultant
Location: Manchester
Type: Permanent, on-site, full time
Are you passionate about solving complex customer challenges with innovative technology? Do you enjoy turning technical insights into compelling solutions that win business? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re looking for a Technical PreSales Consultant to join our team - someone who can blend technical expertise with great communication skills to help shape meaningful customer outcomes. We also welcome individuals from a strong technical support or customer support engineering background who are looking to transition into a more customer-facing, solution-oriented presales role.
What You’ll Be Doing
In this role, you’ll play a key part in supporting our customers and sales teams by designing solutions that truly meet business and technical needs. You will:
- Develop clear, engaging customer proposals that align to business and technical requirements.
- Identify risks within scope and provide well informed recommendations on delivery models and work estimates, leveraging operational and troubleshooting insights where relevant.
- Review and refine proposal materials to ensure accuracy, impact, and competitive edge.
- Keep a pulse on emerging technologies, market trends, and competitor offerings to help shape our approach.
- Perform due diligence on solution designs to ensure feasibility, performance, supportability, and budget alignment.
- Participate in deep dive discussions to craft implementation designs tailored to customer ecosystems.
- Address customer questions with confidence, clarity, and a solutions oriented mindset, drawing on hands-on troubleshooting and production environment experience where applicable.
- Collaborate closely with internal teams, partners, and stakeholders to transfer knowledge and deliver successful outcomes.
- Build and grow opportunity pipelines by identifying upsell, cross sell, and value add opportunities.
- Support the sales cycle from opportunity through to closure, including forecast meetings and pipeline management.
- Document activities using internal tools and share best practices with peers.
- Develop strong relationships with customer technical teams to understand their environments, operational challenges, and support models, and map value effectively.
- Actively contribute to knowledge sharing and team collaboration.
