Principal Solutions Consultant in City of London

Your Mission: The Role

solving for better. You are a revenue-owning, outcome-delivering forward-deployed solver (fds), directly driving AI-powered transformation from the first principles within your portfolio of strategic client engagements. You'll be a Directly Responsible Individual (DRI) for orchestrating transformative business outcomes with client stakeholders by solving differently and relentlessly questioning the status quo. You lead the charge from initial engagement to successful execution. Let's be clear: this is not your typical sales or pre-sales role where you 'move-on' to the next-gig after collecting an SoW or PO from a client. At Searce, you get into the weeds, leading with a process-first mindset, as our fellow engineers evlos (solve differently) intelligent outcomes. You remain 100% accountable for the solutions proposed, the deals closed, and the real outcomes realized. If you’re a tech-savvy, consultative seller with the brain of a strategist, the heart of a builder, and the charisma of a storyteller — we’ve got a seat for you at the front of the table. You're not a sales / pre-sales manager. You're the transformation engine.
