We work with over 90% of the UK's top Facilities Management organisations and core security providers, and hold direct contracts with major retailers, corporate and public sector bodies. Our ambition is to grow further across all of them. This role leads the development and closure of our most complex, high-value enterprise opportunities, bringing together TKC's full capability in in-house technology, dedicated risk management expertise, partner network and commercial depth to build solutions that win and deliver at scale.
The Solutions Director drives sizeable £1m+ deals that will shape the future of the company. Working directly with the Chief Commercial Officer and specialist colleagues across the business and our wider ecosystem, the role leads end-to-end proposition development: working alongside our dedicated risk management team to identify vulnerabilities and design bespoke solutions, leveraging in-house tools and our partner network, and identifying and enabling the right partner relationships where gaps exist. This is a role for someone who is highly organised, detail-oriented and capable of motivating teams and stakeholders to deliver.
A strong background in security matters here, but so does a genuine understanding of the market. The Solutions Director will bring transformative models, concepts and ways of working to an industry not historically known for adopting change, doing it in a way that earns genuine trust with the clients we are targeting.
