## Job description

The Opportunity We are seeking a senior-level Solutions Engineer to serve as the primary advisor to our most critical Central Government and Defence accounts. This is not a standard sales role; it is an executive-level partnership, you will be the technical architect behind the digital transformation of critical national infrastructure, bridging the gap between high-level policy and complex, multi-domain technology execution.

If you have 15+ years of experience in high-stakes environments and are looking to define the future of technology in the public sector, this is your next challenge.

### Your Strategic Impact Executive Advisory

Act as a peer to CTOs and CIOs within Government and major defence integrators. You will influence long-term technology road-maps and align Cisco’s innovation pipeline with national business outcomes.

### Architectural Leadership

Orchestrate complex, multi-domain architectures that solve for security, scalability, and mission-critical reliability.

### Transformation Catalyst

Lead large-scale program transformations, moving beyond individual product sales to deliver holistic, high-value solutions that address unique government and defence challenges.

### Competitive Positioning

Define and execute the strategy to displace legacy competition, positioning Cisco as the essential foundation for the customer’s future.

### Key Responsibilities

Strategic Bid Consulting: Serve as the lead technical consultant for multi-million-pound strategic bids, ensuring technical solutions are intrinsically linked to long-term customer success.

### Thought Leadership

Provide authoritative insights on emerging technology trends, influencing both the customer’s internal strategy and Cisco’s internal product development (BEs).

### Cross-Functional Orchestration

Work with internal engineering, sales, and services teams to ensure a unified, high-impact delivery model.

### Stakeholder Engagement

Navigate complex stakeholder landscapes, translating high-level business objectives into actionable, secure, and future-proof technical requirements.

### Qualifications & Requirements

Experience: 15+ years of progressive experience in senior/executive technical leadership, architectural design, or CTO/CIO-level advisory roles.

### Domain Expertise

Deep, hands-on knowledge of multi-domain architectures (Networking, Security, Cloud, Collaboration) and their application in complex, regulated environments.

### Executive Presence

Proven track record of engaging, influencing, and building long-term trust with C-suite and executive-level stakeholders.

### Sector Knowledge

Demonstrated experience navigating the unique requirements, compliance standards, and competitive landscape of the UK Public Sector and Defence industries.

### Collaboration

Strong experience of working with cross-functional teams through large-scale, high-impact digital transformations.

### Education

A relevant degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or Business Administration (or equivalent professional experience).
