Successful sales consultants are in high demand and have the opportunity to pursue a career path both within presales as well as in many different IT and non-IT functions.

The EMEA Presales Centre (EPC) is tasked with supporting the EMEA field presales in a diverse number of ways, ranging from answering to tenders, customizing demos and building prototypes to directly supporting partners with specific requests.

For the Cross Product Services team we are looking for individuals who are willing to take on the challenge of quickly building basic product knowledge and combining this with a good commercial sense while working in an international environment.

The languages supported by the centre are: English, French, German and Spanish (fluency in English is a must).
