  • Value Realisation & Roadmaps: Define customer AI roadmaps to maximise ROI, scale pilots, and ensure business-aligned outcomes.
  • Partner Ecosystem & Practice Alignment: Leverage Microsoft and ISV partnerships for co-sell and campaigns; coordinate with practice leads to align opportunities to capacity and ensure smooth handoffs to Presales Architects.
  • Internal Enablement & GTM Leadership: Upskill AMs/BDMs, develop AI solution plays, contribute to sales strategy, GTM execution, pipeline, and proposals.
  • Thought Leadership: Represent CBS at events and publish content showcasing AI and business application outcomes.
What You’ll Bring

You’ll bring a proven track record in IT-based sales, consultancy, or solution sales, with the ability to translate complex business challenges into AI, Data, and Business Applications solutions. Comfortable engaging with mid-market to enterprise clients and C-level executives, you combine commercial and strategic acumen with technical depth to deliver measurable business outcomes. You thrive in fast-paced environments, leveraging vendor partnerships and internal teams to drive results.

  • Strong B2B experience with mid-market to enterprise customers
  • Proven success selling Microsoft Data, AI, and Business Applications (Azure, Fabric/Power BI, Power Platform, Dynamics 365, Copilots)
  • Minimum 8 years’ experience in IT-based sales, consultancy, or solution sales
  • Experience delivering complex solutions with tangible business outcomes
  • Excellent verbal, written, presentation, interpersonal, and negotiation skills
  • Ability to work to strict deadlines, budgets, and fast-paced environments
  • Ability to leverage vendor relationships to support solution design and presentations
  • Full understanding of end-to-end IT solution sales and project delivery lifecycle
  • Strong commercial and strategic business acumen
  • Understanding of client business, technical requirements, and IT environments
  • Microsoft certifications such as DP, AI, PL, MB, and Fabric-aligned credentials highly regarded
