Job description

Solutions Partner at Skillsoft - Remote Germany Role — Remote

Remote Flexibility: This Solutions Partner role at Skillsoft is based in Germany and requires German and English fluency, suggesting a strong regional market focus. While Skillsoft is a global company with digital-first tools and collaborative web platforms, this role involves executive-level client workshops, C-suite discovery sessions, and multi-stakeholder buying committee engagement — activities that likely require in-person client visits across the DACH region, making a fully nomadic lifestyle challenging.

Timezone Constraints: Client-facing consulting work in Germany means Central European Time (CET/CEST) is effectively mandatory. Async-friendly arrangements are unlikely for a role with this level of stakeholder engagement.

Salary vs. Nomad Destinations: The base salary range (up to €65,000) with OTE up to €93,000 offers solid purchasing power:

• Lisbon, Portugal: Comfortable lifestyle at ~€2,500–3,000/month; this salary leaves significant surplus.
• Bangkok, Thailand: Very high relative purchasing power at ~€1,200–1,800/month — though a German work contract may restrict where you legally work from.
• Berlin, Germany: As the implied base, €93K OTE is competitive but costs (~€2,500–3,500/month) are rising.

Bottom Line: This role is best suited for someone residing in Germany. Digital nomads should look for Skillsoft's fully remote individual-contributor or content roles instead, which offer more location independence.

At Skillsoft , we believe skills fuel growth. Our mission is to empower every organization and every learner to turn constant change into continuous growth. As part of the team, your skills will help organizations understand what skills they have, what they need next, and how to apply them in ways that drive real performance and progress.

Skillsoft is hiring an experienced Solutions Partner who will play a critical role in Skillsoft's Solutions go-to-market strategy across multiple markets — enabling consistent, scalable solutioning while allowing for market-specific depth and specialization. In this role you will be responsible for shaping, influencing, and co-designing the customer's full solution including platform, services, learning experience, and transformation outcomes by partnering closely with Sales, Customer Success, Professional Services, Product, and Marketing.

Our Solutions Partners apply a structured consulting and discovery methodology to engage complex, multi-stakeholder buying committees and build executive conviction for enterprise-scale transformation. This role combines C-level consulting presence, deep Percipio platform expertise, and strong grounding in instructional design and adult learning principles to ensure that solutions are not only commercially compelling, but also instructionally sound, value- and learner-centered, and outcome-driven.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Strategic Discovery & Buying Committee Engagement

• Apply a structured, repeatable methodology to engage complex buying committees across HR, Talent, Learning, IT, Data, and Executive leadership.
• Build executive-level business cases and value narratives that establish urgency, confidence, and alignment for large platform-led deals.
• Manage client relationships, ensuring clear communication and understanding of their needs.
• Surface business priorities, workforce challenges, readiness signals, and constraints to align stakeholders around a shared transformation narrative.
• Influence and shape the entire end-to-end solution, including Skillsoft Percipio platform capabilities, professional services, learning strategy, experience design, and change enablement components.
• Partner with Sales, Customer Success, and Professional Services to design solutions that are commercially viable, instructionally effective, and operationally executable.
• Ensure clear alignment between customer outcomes, platform capabilities, services scope, and measurable success criteria that enable executive-level business cases.
• Act as a market SME on Percipio and its role within broader HR tech stacks, including HCM, LMS/LXP, talent, skills intelligence, and analytics platforms.
• Identify data considerations (sources, quality, flows, governance) that influence skills visibility, analytics, personalization, and measurement.
• Ensure solution designs reflect realistic integration and data maturity assumptions.

Adult Learning, Instructional Design & Learning Experience Integration

• Provide strong consulting expertise to guide clients in their learning and development strategies.
• Apply adult learning theory, instructional design, and learning experience design to inform solution recommendations and platform use cases.
• Propose learning experiences grounded in evidence-based principles such as relevance, application, practice, personalization, and flow of work.
• Influence how Percipio is positioned as a learning and experience engine — not just a content or technology platform — ensuring solutions support sustained behavior change and performance impact.

Talent, Workforce & Transformation Consulting

• Act as a trusted advisor to senior leaders on talent, workforce capability, skills, and organizational transformation challenges.
• Conduct deep diagnostics of customer environments, including business strategy, workforce priorities, learning maturity, and HR technology ecosystems.
• Assess transformation readiness and design phased, outcome-aligned approaches that reduce risk and increase adoption.
• Demonstrate expertise in strategic discovery, solution positioning, proposal development, and solution commercialization with C-level customers.
• Translate customer needs into repeatable solution patterns, aligning packaged offers and playbooks that accelerate deal velocity and consistency across markets.

Customer Insight & Continuous Improvement

• Collaborate on and execute feedback loops that improve solution quality, instructional effectiveness, and go-to-market execution over time.

SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS:

• 6+ years of professional experience in enterprise solution consulting, platform-led sales, or transformation-focused roles involving complex buying committees.
• Demonstrated ability to build executive-level business cases and influence senior stakeholders and present to all levels of an organization.
• Strong background in learning, talent, workforce, or organizational transformation, with the ability to connect business strategy to capability development.
• Working knowledge and experience in instructional design, adult learning principles, and learning experience design as they relate to enterprise learning solutions.
• Robust consulting background with a proven track record of successful engagements.
• Ability to translate learning science and instructional design concepts into executive-friendly value narratives.
• Experience partnering cross-functionally across Sales, Services, Product, and Marketing with strong experience with virtual and collaboration web tools.
• Strong storytelling, facilitation, and presentation skills, including executive workshops and discovery sessions.
• Comfort operating in ambiguous, evolving environments while maintaining structured, outcome-focused approaches.
• Ability to work collaboratively within a team and with clients.
• Excellent analytical, diagnostic, and problem-solving skills.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills and executive presence.
• Fluency in German and English is essential.

PREFERRED SKILLS:

• Experience influencing or designing platform + services solutions in SaaS, HR tech, or learning ecosystems.
• Familiarity with HR technology landscapes (HCM, LMS/LXP, skills platforms, analytics).
• Knowledge of strategic workforce management principles.
• Experienced practitioner of learning facilitation, leadership development, learning ROI metrics and measurement, and/or learning strategy.
• Advanced literacy in Generative AI, with an understanding of basic prompting.
• Advanced level of desktop application skills (MS365) with ability to learn new technologies and applications quickly.

Target base salary range for this job requisition is anticipated to be approximately 5,000 EUR – 65,000 EUR annualized, with an average OTE including commissions of approximately 78,500 EUR – 93,000 EUR annually.

We also offer Enterprise benefits including but not limited to comprehensive health coverage and paid time off. The company may modify salaries, salary ranges and/or Pay Plans from time to time as it deems necessary.
