• Act as a senior technical contact for key clients, building trusted advisory relationships.
• Conduct regular client site visits, particularly during and following onboarding, to support implementation, gather requirements, and strengthen relationships.
• Work directly with clients to assess their environments, identify improvement opportunities, and recommend solutions aligned to their needs and budget.
• Support the MSP Operations Manager and Managing Director in client reviews, technical presentations, and proposal development.

Technical Standards & Stack Ownership

• Define, document, and enforce technical standards across the team, ensuring consistent, high-quality delivery across all client environments.
• Manage and optimise Dr Logic’s internal technical stack, including MDM, RMM, identity management, and monitoring tooling.

• Ensure client documentation is accurate, up to date, and reflects the current state of their environment following any change.
• Develop and lead knowledge-sharing sessions and training materials for the operations team.

Pre-Sales & Technical Strategy

• Contribute technical expertise to pre-sales conversations, supporting scoping, solution design, and proposal development alongside the business development team.
• Provide clear, well-informed technical input into client proposals, helping ensure recommended solutions are achievable and commercially grounded.
• Contribute to Dr Logic’s technical roadmap by evaluating new products and technologies.

Team Development

• Mentor and support L1 and L2 technicians, sharing knowledge, reviewing complex cases, and helping the team grow technically.
