Description
Are you excited to help large organizations unlock mission outcomes in the cloud? Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a Senior Customer Solutions Manager (CSM) for our UK and Ireland Team, supporting large enterprise organisations in Ireland. In this role you will guide customers through every stage of their cloud evolution, turning ambitious ideas into measurable results.
You will collaborate with customers, sales, solutions architects, and service teams to solve some of today’s most complex technology challenges. Acting as a single-threaded owner, you will scope work, set goals, allocate resources, track progress, and communicate clear, data-driven updates.
By earning trust across your customers' organization, you will uncover high-value cloud use cases, establish roadmaps, define success criteria, orchestrate advanced architectures, and stand up program-level governance. Ultimately, you will own the end-to-end customer cloud journey (technical, operational, organizational, and educational) and advise executives on what “good” looks like.
At AWS we value critical thinking, ownership, and a bias for action. You bring strong technical depth, exemplary communication skills, and a passion for delivering a great customer experience.
