By doing these things we help them create success for their customers and their people.

We stand proudly for our people and support their success through career development and advancement. We are recognized and respected for our culture of inclusion and belonging, continuously striving to do what’s good for our people and communities.

The impact you will have:

Are you ready to be at the forefront of the AI revolution, shaping the future of how organizations harness cutting‑edge technology to drive real, measurable results? As a pivotal member of our team, you won’t just be selling solutions—you’ll be empowering our customers to unlock the full potential of workplace AI, intelligent agents, and robust data platforms, regardless of the cloud ecosystem they prefer.

At Softchoice, your influence will reach far beyond pilots and proofs of concept. You’ll have the unique opportunity to architect and deliver AI strategies that become the backbone of our customers’ success, transforming how they work, innovate, and compete. Through our integrated consulting and engineering approach—leveraging deep alliances with Microsoft, AWS, and Google Cloud—you’ll help organizations move from vision to execution, making AI practical, durable, and truly impactful.

Imagine being the trusted advisor who brings clarity to complex challenges, guiding senior executives to align on a transformative AI roadmap. You’ll be instrumental in shaping business cases that deliver productivity gains, reduce operational costs, and strengthen compliance—while mapping out the tangible ROI that drives executive buy‑in and long‑term adoption.

• Pipeline discipline: maintain accurate Salesforce hygiene and weekly cadence on funnel adds and sufficiency; leverage Sales Ops dashboards.

• Evangelize responsibly: position governance, identity, Purview, DLP, and COE patterns to reduce risk while scaling value.
