• Partner closely with Sales, Solution Architecture and Delivery teams to support commercial opportunities, provide technical insight and ensure successful handovers.
• Develop AI propositions, demo environments and reusable technical assets, while acting as a senior escalation point for complex AI opportunities.

Skills & Experience:

• Previous experience leading, managing or mentoring technical consultants or pre-sales specialists.
• Strong background in technical pre-sales, solution consulting or solution specialist roles.
• Hands-on knowledge of Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Studio, Azure AI and Power Platform.
