Company & Role
A well-established and highly respected IT solutions and managed services provider is entering an exciting growth phase, with ambitious plans over the next two years. Known for delivering innovative cloud, infrastructure, workspace and managed service solutions, this company partners with leading vendors including VMware, Net App, DellEMC, and Microsoft.
As a Pre-Sales Solutions Architect, you will work closely with the sales and delivery teams to provide trusted advisor-level consultancy to customers, building roadmaps, responding to RFIs/RFPs, and designing scalable IaaS, PaaS, and DaaS solutions that drive real business value.
Why This Role Stands Out

Key Responsibilities

- Develop tailored roadmaps and high-level solution designs for IaaS, PaaS, DRaaS, and DaaS offerings

- Act as a trusted advisor to customers, providing expert guidance across hybrid cloud and XaaS strategies
- Collaborate with sales and delivery teams to ensure seamless customer experiences
- Stay current with emerging technologies, vendor offerings, and market trends
Ideal Experience
- Proven experience in a pre-sales or solution architecture role, ideally within an IT services or managed services provider environment
- Strong background across hybrid cloud architectures and XaaS models (IaaS, PaaS, DRaaS, DaaS)
