As part of that growth, they're creating an exciting new Technical Account Manager position that will become a key part of their Technical Leadership team. This isn't your typical Technical Manager role. Yes, you'll use your technical expertise every day, but what really sets this opportunity apart is the chance to become the trusted technical partner for some of the UK's leading retail customers. You'll own customer relationships from a technical perspective, represent the business externally, influence technical strategy, travel across the UK and internationally, and play a major role in supporting the next phase of growth.
