Head of Consumer Electronics - Consultancy

Job description

Why this role? You’ll be someone who regularly thrives to climb the ladder of success. You’ve studied engineering, have done it for a long time, perhaps now managing your own team, so what’s next? Ultimately the only way to keep growing upwards, is to work with a business as their thought leader, looking at their strategic decision making from a senior level, and potentially serve their business development.

 

You’ll have one foot in the operation, one foot in the strategic decision making of the business, and you’ll have a head for business and proposition development.

 

The business you’ll be working for a known consultancy within the Cambridgeshire tech scene, but beyond that, they’re an international tech consultancy, with operations worldwide. The beauty of consultancies is the variety of work on the day to day. It’s ultimately not for everyone, given how priorities can regularly change, projects can shift, and your focus will often need to be in multiple places at once, but the engineers who will be interested in consultancies, are those who enjoy variety in their day to day.

 

Your day to day will involve a hardware technology focus. You’ll help build your own teams, sell more work to clients, manage multi-disciplinary technology teams out of Cambridge to deliver work. This is a senior level opportunity which will suit someone who is looking to build something, using the business’s resource & technical capability, within the consumer space.

 

In return you’ll receive a salary between £81,000 - £121,000 per year, transport allowance, a bonus of 15%, 11% pension, life assurance and private healthcare.
