Pre-Sales Consultant – Enterprise SaaS | EAM Software Why this role exists Ultimo builds enterprise asset management software for organisations where physical assets sit at the heart of operations — with particular strength in manufacturing, utilities, infrastructure, and healthcare environments. The product is proven, the customer base is real, and the business is growing. To support that growth, we're hiring a Pre-Sales Consultant who can bridge technical depth with commercial impact. This is not a demo-delivery role. It's a role for someone who wants to shape how customers understand value — and influence deals from first conversation to close. About Ultimo Ultimo provides enterprise asset management (EAM) software used by manufacturing and other asset-intensive organisations to manage, maintain, and optimise physical assets across sites and regions. The software is operational backbone, not a nice-to-have tool. Ultimo is part of IFS, providing long-term backing, scale, and investment — while retaining its own product focus, identity, and entrepreneurial operating model. Why join Ultimo now Ultimo is moving from legacy success to intentional growth — with a more deliberate sales approach and a sharper focus on net-new logo acquisition in manufacturing. For an experienced Pre-Sales professional, this creates a real opportunity: • A product with genuine differentiators and a credible installed base, • Complex, consultative sales cycles where Pre-Sales carries real weight, • Direct influence on how Ultimo is positioned and demonstrated in the market, • Close collaboration with Sales, Product, and R&D What you'll own • End-to-end ownership of the Pre-Sales process across target accounts and manufacturing-led opportunities, • Translating customer business challenges into compelling, value-driven Ultimo solutions, • Delivering impactful product demonstrations — standard and prospect-specific, • Supporting tenders, RFPs, requirement documentation, and commercial proposals, • Acting as a knowledge bridge between customers, Sales, and Product/R&D, • Continuously refining demo environments, messaging, and competitive positioning How you'll operate Ultimo operates with autonomy and directness: • High trust, fast decision-making, • Direct access to Sales leadership and short lines to Product, • A genuine expectation to take initiative and drive how the business wins What we're looking for Someone who can demonstrate: • 5+ years of commercial Pre-Sales or solutions experience in SaaS or a technology-driven environment, • Ability to run complex, multi-stakeholder sales cycles — tenders, structured demos, ROI conversations, • Experience in or strong exposure to manufacturing, industrial, or asset-intensive industries, • CRM familiarity and comfort with requirement documentation and sales methodologies, • The ability to combine technical credibility with boardroom-level communication, • Commercial resilience and sound judgement under pressure A degree in Account Management, Business Administration, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field is preferred — but sales craft and industry mindset matter more than academic background. Interested? If you're motivated by customer impact, technical depth, and the opportunity to help shape how a proven EAM product wins in new markets — we'd love to hear from you.
