Define what success should look like for customer engagements, including adoption goals, workflow outcomes, and measurable impact. Lead advanced consulting engagements Lead complex onboarding programmes, advanced workshops, pilots, demos, and workflow transformation engagements. Work across design, engineering, visualisation, CMF, leadership, and other customer teams. Tailor delivery for different audiences, from hands-on designers to senior stakeholders. Help customers understand how Gravity Sketch can fit into automotive and industrial design workflows, including concept development, collaboration, review, and commercialisation. Set best practice and influence the team Develop and share best practices, reusable frameworks, workshop structures, and workflow approaches. Influence how the wider Design Consulting team approaches delivery through your work and expertise. Create scalable training and enablement content that can be reused across customers and verticals. Coach and support other Design Consultants in planning and delivering high quality customer engagements. Partner cross-functionally
Work closely with Customer Success Managers to align on account strategy, customer health, rollout plans, and adoption priorities. Partner with Sales on late-stage opportunities and strategic demos where workflow credibility is critical.

Strong ability to structure ambiguity: discovery, synthesis, problem framing, planning, and recommendation-building. Excellent deck-building and storytelling skills, with the ability to turn customer context into a clear plan or proposal. Comfortable presenting to senior stakeholders as well as hands-on users. Highly self-directed and able to lead engagements without close supervision. Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage multiple high-impact projects. Strong commercial awareness and ability to partner effectively with Customer Success and Sales.
