1What this role really is

As a Solutions Consultant, you're the technical backbone of our sales team. You'll be the one who actually shows prospects how our product solves their problems, not just tells them. Think of it as being the chief architect for our customers' future, helping them visualise how our tech fits into their world and makes things better. It's a hands-on role where you'll get to deep-dive into customer environments and truly understand their technical challenges, then build and present solutions that genuinely excite them.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Technical Win Rate
The percentage of deals where our solution was technically preferred by the prospect's team, regardless of the final commercial outcome.
Target · 80%+

If you supported 10 deals that went to a technical evaluation, and 8 of those prospects confirmed our solution was technically superior, that's an 80% technical win rate.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Solving Complex Technical Puzzles

You get a real buzz from diving deep into a prospect's architecture, figuring out their pain points, and then designing a solution that truly fits. It's about the intellectual challenge of making disparate systems work together or optimising an inefficient process.

Spending an afternoon mapping out a prospect's legacy system integration with our platform, then presenting a clear, step-by-step migration plan that gets their technical team nodding in agreement.

Making the Complex Simple

You love taking our incredibly powerful (and sometimes complicated) product and explaining it in a way that anyone, from an intern to a CEO, can understand and get excited about. It's the satisfaction of seeing the 'lightbulb moment' in a prospect's eyes.

Crafting a custom demo that focuses purely on a prospect's specific use case, cutting out all the irrelevant features and using their own data to show immediate, tangible value.

Direct Impact on Business Growth

You're not just a technical expert; you're a crucial part of closing deals. You feel a sense of accomplishment when your technical presentation or successful POC directly leads to a new customer signing up, knowing you played a vital role in the company's success.

Successfully leading a multi-week POC that directly results in a £100K deal closing, and seeing your name on the internal 'closed-won' announcement.

What frustrates people
  • Being pulled into endless demos for deals that the Account Executive hasn't properly qualified, feeling like your time is wasted.
  • Discovering a known product bug or a feature gap during a critical demo, which can derail the whole presentation.
  • The dreaded 'Can you just hop on this call in 5 minutes?' request from an AE, leaving you no time to prepare or understand the context.
  • Achieving the 'technical win'—where the prospect's tech team loves our solution—only to lose the deal on price or contract terms.
  • Trying to prepare for a crucial customer call but finding the CRM (Salesforce) notes are vague, incomplete, or simply non-existent.
What this role does not give you
  • A predictable, unchanging daily routine – every prospect is different, every problem is unique.
  • Guaranteed closure on every deal you technically win – commercial factors are often beyond your control.
  • An environment where you solely focus on deep, long-term technical development without customer interaction.
  • Complete control over the sales process – you're a partner to the AE, not the sole decision-maker.

6Who you work with

This role directly impacts our revenue targets by securing the 'technical win' in sales cycles. You'll reduce sales cycle length by effectively demonstrating value and de-risking the purchase for prospects. Your work also provides crucial feedback to our Product and Engineering teams, helping shape future product development based on real customer needs and competitive insights.

Inside the business
  • Account Executives (your primary partners)
  • Product Management (you'll feed them customer insights)
  • Sales Operations (for pipeline tracking and reporting)
  • Customer Success (for smooth handovers post-sale)
Outside the business
  • Technical teams (IT, Engineering, Security) within prospect companies
  • Business stakeholders (Department Heads, Project Managers) at prospects
  • Executive sponsors (CTOs, CIOs) at larger accounts

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • At least 2 years of experience in a technical pre-sales role (e.g., Junior Solutions Consultant, Technical Support Engineer with customer-facing experience, or a Developer who's moved into a client-facing role).
  • A proven track record of delivering engaging technical presentations and product demonstrations to diverse audiences.
  • Hands-on experience with at least one major CRM system (Salesforce preferred) for managing sales activities and pipeline.
  • Demonstrable experience in scoping and executing Proof of Concepts (POCs) or similar technical evaluations.
  • A solid understanding of cloud technologies (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and how modern applications are built and deployed.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to simplify complex technical jargon for business users.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Cloud Architecture & Security

Customers are deploying increasingly complex, multi-cloud environments, and security concerns are paramount. You'll need to move beyond basic cloud concepts to discuss advanced architecture patterns, hybrid cloud strategies, and detailed security implementations with confidence.

Serverless & Containerisation · Zero Trust Architectures · Cloud Cost Optimisation

  • This quarter: Complete an advanced certification in one major cloud provider (e.g., AWS Solutions Architect Associate, Azure Administrator).
  • Next 6 months: Actively seek out POCs that involve complex multi-cloud integrations or advanced security requirements.
  • Month 7-9: Present a 'deep-dive' session to your team on a complex cloud architecture pattern and how our product fits in.

Quick win: Spend an hour each week reading the technical blogs from AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. Just understanding the new terminology will help.

Data Integration & API Strategy

Our product often sits within a larger ecosystem of customer tools. You'll need to become an expert in discussing complex data flows, API integrations, and how our platform can become the 'single source of truth' or seamlessly exchange data with other critical systems.

RESTful API Design & Best Practices · ETL/ELT Processes · Event-Driven Architectures

  • This month: Get hands-on with our product's API documentation. Build a small script to interact with it.
  • Next quarter: Lead a customer discussion purely focused on API integration strategy, without relying on an engineer.
  • Month 4-6: Research common integration patterns in our industry and present how our product addresses them to the team.

Quick win: Identify a common integration challenge a prospect has and map out a high-level API integration diagram for it. Practice explaining it simply.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Attend industry conferences and webinars relevant to our product space and target customer industries.
  • Actively participate in online technical communities and forums to stay current with new technologies and trends.
  • Engage in peer-to-peer learning within our Solutions Consulting team, sharing best practices and challenging each other.
  • Take advantage of our internal training programmes on new product features, sales methodologies, and presentation skills.
  • Seek out opportunities to mentor junior team members or new hires, as teaching is often the best way to solidify your own understanding.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Solutions Consultant is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

See how you learn, free. Eight questions, no sign-up. A directional taster; the diagnostic inside Zavmo goes deeper and keeps adapting.

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, a Solutions Consultant's job is packed. You're juggling demos, POCs, RFPs, and trying to keep your AEs happy. The good news? AI isn't here to replace you; it's here to make you ridiculously efficient. We're investing in tools that cut out the boring, repetitive stuff so you can focus on what you do best: solving complex customer problems and winning deals.

Imagine spending less time on tedious admin and more time on high-value activities like deep technical discovery or crafting that perfect custom demo. Our AI productivity hub is designed specifically for Solutions Consultants, giving you access to tools that streamline your workflow and supercharge your output. It's about working smarter, not just harder.

Automated RFP First Pass

Fed up with RFP Spreadsheet Hell? Our AI can ingest complex RFPs and security questionnaires, automatically populating 70-80% of the answers from our internal knowledge base (think Guru or Confluence). Your role shifts from writing hundreds of lines to simply editing and refining the AI's output, saving you hours of soul-crushing work.

Real-Time Competitive Intelligence

Stay ahead of the competition without spending hours researching. AI monitors competitor reviews (like G2), technical documentation, and forum discussions. It then synthesises this data into real-time 'battle cards' and Slack alerts, highlighting new feature launches or emerging customer complaints you can use to your advantage in a demo.

Personalised Demo Preparation

Move beyond the 'canned' demo. Our AI analyses CRM data—things like prospect industry, specific role, and noted pain points—to suggest a tailored demo flow, key talking points, and relevant customer stories. This means you walk into every demo knowing exactly what resonates with that specific prospect, making your presentations far more impactful.

Intelligent Call Synthesis & Handoff

No more frantic note-taking during discovery calls. AI records, transcribes, and summarises your technical discussions. It automatically identifies key requirements, action items, and product gaps, then generates a draft summary for the CRM and even a pre-formatted Jira ticket for the Product team. Imagine getting 30-45 minutes back after every call!

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Solutions Consultant, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 1 national skill standard. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Solutions Consultant: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Independent research finds well-designed intelligent tutoring performs nearly as well as one-to-one human tutoring: VanLehn (2011), Educational Psychologist.

Other roles in Sales

Stay in the field you know and move sideways rather than up.

If you leave this industry

The skills you gain as a Solutions Consultant are highly transferable. You could move into broader technical roles like Solutions Architect, Customer Success Manager (for highly technical accounts), or even into Product Marketing, leveraging your ability to translate technical features into market-facing value propositions.
