The Opportunity:
This is a rare opportunity to work directly alongside a Microsoft Practice Director, gaining exposure to customer engagements, technical discussions, executive meetings, pre-sales activities, innovation initiatives, partner relationships and business strategy from day one.
Rather than following a traditional early-career path, you'll learn through immersion, observing, supporting and gradually taking ownership as your confidence and expertise grow. You'll gain first-hand exposure to how a successful technology consultancy operates while developing both technical and commercial skills.
What You'll Be Involved In:
- Shadowing the Microsoft Practice Director across day-to-day activities
- Attending customer, partner and stakeholder meetings
- Supporting technical pre-sales engagements
- Assisting with proposals, presentations and Statements of Work
- Participating in innovation and service development discussions

- Microsoft Defender XDR
- Microsoft Entra
- Microsoft Purview
- Microsoft Azure
- Microsoft Copilot
- Microsoft Agent technologies
- Emerging Microsoft security and cloud technologies
What We're Looking For:
We're looking for potential rather than specific experience.
You might be a graduate, an early-career professional or someone looking to move into technology from another field. Technical experience is not essential, but curiosity, ambition and a willingness to learn are.
Successful candidates will typically be:
- Highly ambitious and driven
- Curious and eager to learn
- Proactive and self-motivated
- Comfortable stepping outside their comfort zone
- Strong communicators
- Adaptable and flexible
- Confident engaging with different people and situations
- Interested in technology, business and innovation
- Keen to build a long-term career
Career Development:
This role offers exposure to technical consulting, Microsoft technologies, cybersecurity, solution architecture, pre-sales, business strategy, thought leadership and innovation. As your skills develop, you'll move from observing and supporting to contributing and ultimately leading activities yourself.
Additional Information:
This is a predominantly remote role, however regular travel to offices, customer sites, partner meetings and industry events will be required. The successful candidate should be comfortable travelling across the UK as part of their development and learning journey.
