Job description
Who we are.
At Software Improvement Group (SIG), we empower organizations to enhance their software quality through deep source code analysis and tailored, strategic advice.
Our software assurance platform, Sigrid, together with our expert IT consultants, enables our customers to take full control of their software environments, ensuring their technology is a driver of success, not a source of risk.
We have a strong market presence and serious growth ambitions for the coming years, and we are looking for people who want to help us realize this.
Where you come in
As a (Senior) Business Consultant in our Amsterdam-based Benelux market team, you work closely with clients in the Benelux to understand their business and challenges. Given our growth ambitions, you will also support new business acquisition across other countries in Europe. You report to the market team’s Delivery Director and work together with Account Executives to develop accounts, propose solutions and contribute to tender bids. You work together with management consultants and technical analysts to execute strategic short-term engagements, and you support our team’s Customer Success Managers in ensuring the strategic value of our long-term engagements.
How we work
As a (Senior) Business Consultant, your main responsibilities span both presales and delivery, with a focus on the former. You ensure your domain knowledge is up-to-date and you know the ins and outs of organizations in the commercial sectors. Typically, you will do the following:
Identify the needs of our prospects and current clients across Europe
Develop and maintaining a set of propositions matching those needs
Support our Account Executives in closing deals
Develop long-term relationships with our clients, together with our Customer Success Managers
Guide clients in building their maturity in software quality assurance and modernization
Demonstrate the added value of the Sigrid platform to our clients
Lead engagements of a strategic nature, esp. in politically difficult contexts
Orchestrate and add value to every advice report
Ensure customer satisfaction for all types of engagements
What's in it for you?
You get to take part in meaningful engagements concerning the digital backbone of our clients in the Benelux and wider Europe, ranging from large enterprises through SMEs to major governmental IT clusters. You get to contribute to a better digital society by helping to improve key governmental services, as well as banking, insurance, energy or logistical systems.
You will receive an intensive onboarding program on SIG’s proprietary toolset and methodologies. We will help you achieve your goals through continuous professional development and regular career progression sessions.
We are interested in people who are looking to change the world and believe this can be done by improving software quality.
