We're proud to be certified as a Great Place to Work®, and to be recognised on their UK Best Workplaces lists for Women, Wellbeing, and Development. These aren't badges we chase - they're the result of how we genuinely choose to treat each other, and how seriously we take our colleagues' careers, health, and lives outside of work.

• A workplace that takes wellbeing seriously: from mental health support and flexible working to active employee networks and a leadership team that listens. 

• A commitment to equity and inclusion: where we actively work to make Phoenix a brilliant place to build a career, whoever you are. 

• Work that matters: supporting the public sector organisations that keep the UK running, from government and healthcare to defence, public safety, education, housing, and the charities serving the most vulnerable in our communities. 

• Working with the best of the industry: alongside genuine experts, and with strategic partnerships across the world's leading technology providers, you'll be at the front of the conversations shaping how UK public services modernise. 

We believe in encouraging, supporting, and skilling our people up so that you can be the very best you can be at work - and we'd love you to consider being part of it.

• Good knowledge of security technologies and platforms, including areas such as Endpoint Security, SIEM, SOAR and Endpoint Management. 

• Experience conducting discovery conversations and translating customer requirements into effective security solutions. 

• Strong communication, presentation and stakeholder management skills with the ability to engage confidently with both technical and non-technical audiences. 

• Experience creating proposals, solution recommendations or bid responses. 

• Commercial awareness with an understanding of opportunity management, pipeline development and forecasting. 

• Ability to work collaboratively with Account Managers, Solution Specialists, delivery teams and strategic vendor partners. 

• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple opportunities and priorities simultaneously. 

• Product demonstration experience would be advantageous. 

• Cyber security certifications would be beneficial but are not essential. 

• Knowledge of current cyber security trends, threats and industry best practices would be advantageous.
