Position the company’s fintech portfolio—including digital banking platforms, payments infrastructure, lending solutions, and AI-enabled automation—within strategic transformation programmes.
Collaborate closely with product, marketing, and delivery teams to craft tailored proposals that align technology capabilities to business imperatives.
Represent the company at industry events, client forums, and executive roundtables to strengthen visibility and influence across the banking ecosystem.

Maintain deep awareness of the UK banking landscape—regulatory trends, competitive dynamics, and the shifting role of cloud, data, and AI in financial services.

Extensive network and proven track record of selling into Tier 1 and Tier 2 UK banks (minimum 7 years).
Strong understanding of banking operations, digital transformation, and the core technology challenges facing large institutions.
Expertise in managing long, complex enterprise sales cycles with multiple stakeholders and business units.
Background in top-tier consulting (Big 3 / Big 4) advantageous.
