The role is responsible for creating new consulting and technology-services revenue by identifying client opportunities, building joint propositions, securing partner investment and leading co-sell activities.
Rather than owning a client portfolio, the Specialist Sales Lead owns a partner growth territory and works across all industries, client accounts and market units to generate incremental revenue and pipeline.
This is a senior individual contributor role carrying a personal revenue target and operating at the intersection of partner sales, data and AI transformation, cloud platforms and consulting services.
The Specialist Sales Lead is responsible for converting partner relationships, partner demand, partner investment and market opportunities into profitable consulting and technology-services revenue.
The role acts as the commercial leader for the assigned partner ecosystem, helping Capgemini identify opportunities that would otherwise not exist, creating new client conversations and accelerating revenue growth through joint sales activity.
The role works collaboratively with client account leadership, industry specialists, architects, consulting teams and delivery teams while retaining accountability for partner-led pipeline creation and commercial progression.
- Deliver an agreed annual revenue target through the creation and conversion of partner-led opportunities.
- Develop and execute a strategic growth plan for the assigned technology partner.
- Identify whitespace opportunities within existing and target client accounts.
- Build qualified pipeline through partner account teams, industry relationships, joint campaigns and direct market engagement.
- Create opportunities that combine Capgemini consulting, engineering, AI, analytics and transformation capabilities with partner technologies.
- Lead commercial pursuits from qualification through to contract signature.
- Build trusted relationships with senior partner stakeholders across sales, alliances, technical specialists and leadership teams.
- Develop deep knowledge of the partner's sales organisation, commercial priorities and strategic objectives.
- Understand how partner teams are measured and how Capgemini can help them achieve their targets.
- Act as the primary commercial interface between the UK Insights & Data business and the assigned partner.
- Establish regular partner governance, account planning and opportunity reviews.
- Work with client account teams to identify and pursue opportunities aligned to partner technologies.
- Build joint propositions and business cases.
- Secure joint funding, assessments, proofs of concept and innovation investments where appropriate.

- Operate across all UK industries and market units.
- Carry an individual revenue target.
- Create and manage their own qualified pipeline.
- Work alongside client ownership teams and account leaders.
- Be accountable for creating incremental growth opportunities and revenue.
The partner is the territory.
The role does not own client accounts or account plans but is expected to influence growth across a broad portfolio of strategic clients through partner-led opportunities.
- Minimum 10 year’s experience in enterprise technology sales, consulting sales, business development or partner sales.
- Demonstrated track record of generating multi-million-pound consulting or services revenue.
- Experience working with one or more strategic technology partners.
