Remote-first across Europe. Occasional travel to Prague and to customer sites. About the role Duvo helps big companies actually finish the operational work that nobody on their team has time to close. The stuff that lives across an ERP, a few portals, somebody's inbox, three spreadsheets, and the occasional phone call. We map it, improve it, and run it for them. Our customers include one of Europe's largest online grocery retailers, a global beauty e-commerce brand, a Middle East retail group, and a European pharmacy chain. The buyer is usually a Head of Operations, Supply Chain, Finance or IT at a large retailer or FMCG brand. New deals land at €100k-€250k ARR and grow from there. This role sits between sales and engineering. You own the technical story in a deal, you run the workshops with the customer's ops and IT people, and you design the pilot that gets us from "this looks interesting" to a signed contract. You'll work directly with the founders and the AE in your region. What you'll do Run discovery and process mapping with customer teams. Take what they actually do across half a dozen systems, including the handoffs and exceptions, and turn it into a pilot scope with a clear Definition of Done. Build and demo pilots inside the product. We don't show generic decks. Every demo runs against the customer's process, with their data shape and their approval rules and their write-back targets. Own the technical evaluation. Security review, integration sizing, the IT objections. Bring engineering in when you actually need them. Stay in the deal through pilot delivery. The customer's outcome has to be verifiable, not just demoable, and that part lands with you. Who you are 3+ years in pre-sales, solutions engineering, forward-deployed, or implementation consulting. You've sold into Operations, Supply Chain or Finance buyers at enterprise companies. Retail or FMCG is a bonus. You get your hands dirty with SQL, a bit of scripting, REST APIs, basic Python. You don't have to be a software engineer. You do have to be the person who can debug an integration live on a call. You read a buying committee well. You know who the champion is, who the blocker is, and when to escalate. You explain things in plain English. You push back on customer asks when they hurt the pilot. Your call summaries are good enough that the rep just forwards them. What we offer Competitive salary and equity. We share the range on the first call. Seed-stage company backed by Index Ventures ($15M seed). Our founder and CEO is Tom Cupr, who previously founded one of Europe's largest online grocery retailers. You're the first pre-sales hire in your region. The function is yours to build. Remote across Europe / the US, with travel to customer sites in your region and a team offsite once a quarter. How we hire Recruiter screen 45 minutes with Omar (Head of Commercial) on the company and quick intros 45 minutes with Omar going deep on your background Working session: you deliver a demo to us Founder interview We try to close the loop in under three weeks. If this is the kind of problem you want to spend your time on, get in touch.

Company: Elvis Eckardt Recruitment & Sales Solutions Limited Lowton, Greater Manchester | Full-time or Part-time | Flexible hours If you’re an accountant who enjoys working with actual people, not just spreadsheets, this might be worth a read. We’re recruiting for a small, modern accountancy practice based in Lowton, and this isn’t one of those jobs where you disappear into a huge finance department and nobody notices whether you’re there or not. The team is small. Very small. That means you’ll know the clients, the clients will know you, and you’ll work closely with the Director rather than being employee number 437 on an organisational chart. They’re looking for an experienced Practice Accountant who can take ownership of their own clients, knows their way around Xero without having to Google where everything lives, and is happy picking up the phone when a client has inevitably forgotten to send half their VAT receipts. Because they always do. • Preparing year-end accounts and financial statements, • VAT returns, • Corporation Tax and Self Assessment work, • Payroll and associated filings, • Reviewing bookkeeping and making sure everything actually makes sense, • Speaking directly with clients about their accounts, • Chasing missing invoices, receipts and information, • Helping clients understand their numbers without making it sound like an accounting textbook, • Spotting problems before they become bigger problems, • Supporting and improving how clients manage their finances And importantly, every client is on Xero. This is a Xero practice through and through, so we’re looking for somebody who uses it confidently and regularly rather than somebody who once logged into it in 2022. The business understands that good accountants have lives outside work. So there’s genuine flexibility around full-time or part-time hours, making this potentially a really good opportunity for somebody who wants to stay in practice but no longer wants the traditional practice lifestyle. Maybe you’ve worked for a larger firm and want something more personal. Maybe you’re tired of timesheets, layers of management and meetings about meetings. Maybe you’ve had some time away from work and want to return somewhere that will value your experience. Or maybe you simply want to work somewhere local where you can do a good job, build relationships with your clients and actually enjoy the people you work with. All perfectly valid reasons. The office is based in Lowton, so ideally we’re looking for somebody reasonably local to areas such as: Lowton, Leigh, Golborne, Culcheth, Newton-le-Willows, Warrington, Wigan, Atherton, Tyldesley or surrounding areas. If your commute currently involves spending half your life on the M60, this could be a welcome change. #J-18808-Ljbffr
