Solution Director - GenAI/Enterprise Technology An enterprise systems integrator building & delivering advanced B2B Generative AI solutions for large organisations is hiring a Senior Solutions Director GenAI. This is a permanent job. This is a client-facing leadership role across AI, data, architecture, software engineering, delivery and adoption. You will work with enterprise clients who are trying to work out where GenAI can be used properly, what needs to sit around it, and how to move from discussion into delivery. This is not an AI awareness role. You do not need to be a hands-on GenAI engineer, but you do need enough technical depth to be credible with engineering teams, architects, delivery leads and senior client contacts. Ideally you will have started your career as a software developer or software engineer. The Role You will work directly with enterprise clients on AI and GenAI consultancy, then oversee the building greenfield GenAI solutions, and implement them. The role needs someone who can lead senior client conversations, understand the technical and delivery issues, and help shape work that can actually be designed, built and adopted. You may be involved in client workshops, solution direction, proposals, delivery governance, stakeholder management, adoption planning and account development. There is a strong technology consulting element to the role. You will need to understand the client problem, the delivery risk, the technical constraints and the commercial context. Experience delivering to external enterprise level clients is a must. What You'll Be Doing You will help clients define and deliver AI, GenAI, data and enterprise technology initiatives. You will work with business and technology leaders to understand goals, priorities, risks and delivery constraints. You will help keep client expectations aligned with what can realistically be scoped, agreed, built and delivered. You will work closely with delivery and engineering teams, helping to connect senior client conversations with practical delivery. You will help clients move from early AI thinking into properly scoped programmes that have a clear business purpose and a realistic delivery path. What We're Looking For You should have strong senior client-facing experience in technology consulting, professional services, systems integration, enterprise architecture, AI/data, software-led delivery or complex technology programmes. You should be comfortable dealing with senior client contacts, including business leaders, technology leaders, programme directors and transformation leads. You should understand how enterprise technology work is shaped, scoped, agreed, managed and delivered. You should be comfortable discussing Generative AI, GenAI, data, architecture and software delivery with both client leaders and technical teams. A background in senior solution leadership, enterprise architecture, technology consulting, professional services delivery or client engagement could fit well, provided you have the technical credibility to work properly with engineering teams. You should be clear, practical, commercially aware and able to challenge weak assumptions in a constructive way. This May Not Suit You If This is not the right role if your background is mainly sales with little involvement in delivery or technology outcomes. It is not a pure project management role focused only on tracking plans, risks and actions. It is not a pure hands-on engineering role with limited senior client exposure. It is not a pure architecture role where you are removed from clients, delivery and commercial context. It is also not suitable if your GenAI experience is limited to general interest, basic awareness or light internal experimentation. Location Remote-first, with candidates ideally based in the United Kingdom or Ireland. There will be regular client interaction and occasional travel where required, perhaps 4 day over a month visiting client site, so you must be happy to do a limited amount of travel. You must have the right to work in the United Kingdom or Ireland. If you are U.K. based you must be able to travel to Ireland occasionally for client meetings. Closing Stack & Co are managing this search on behalf of the client. Suitable candidates will receive a clear brief before any formal introduction is made. Please double-check that you have the required skills and experience before applying as there is a high-bar on this role.
