Senior Account Director - Enterprise IT Solutions

Location: Hybrid / London
Salary: up to £70k
Type: Permanent

About the Client

We are representing a global IT solutions and managed services provider with over 20 years of success in the enterprise space. Renowned for delivering innovative, high-value technology solutions, they have achieved 100% organic revenue growth since 2019, won 25+ industry awards, and built a strong base of 250+ loyal clients worldwide.

The business is fuelled by trust, agility, and excellence - investing in its people, nurturing talent, and creating a culture that is empowering, collaborative, and performance-driven.

The Opportunity

As Senior Account Director, you'll play a pivotal role in leading and expanding strategic enterprise relationships. This is a relationship-first position where you'll act as a trusted advisor to C-level stakeholders, shaping long-term technology strategies across cloud, infrastructure, networking, managed services, and cybersecurity.

You'll oversee major accounts, drive client growth, and lead teams in delivering solutions that exceed expectations - ensuring both commercial success and exceptional client experience.

Key Responsibilities

Own and grow a portfolio of strategic enterprise accounts.

Act as the senior point of contact for C-level stakeholders, building trusted long-term partnerships.

Lead account planning, strategy, and delivery of multi-year managed service contracts.

Identify opportunities to expand relationships and increase account value.

Guide and mentor account teams, ensuring best-in-class service and delivery.

Lead commercial negotiations, contract discussions, and executive-level presentations.

Collaborate with pre-sales, technical, and delivery teams to create tailored client strategies.

Provide accurate reporting, forecasting, and strategic insights back to the business.

Represent the brand at senior-level client meetings, industry forums, and partner events.

Experience & Skills Required

5+ years in IT account management, with significant experience at Account Director or Senior Account Director level.

Proven success in managing and growing enterprise accounts (500+ users).

Strong track record of developing C-level relationships and influencing at board level.

Experience across hardware, software licensing, professional services, and managed services.

Exceptional communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.

Commercially astute with experience handling large contracts and multi-year agreements.

Strategic thinker with the ability to balance client vision, delivery excellence, and revenue growth.

Why This Role Stands Out

Lead and shape strategic enterprise relationships with major clients.

Work with cutting-edge technology and Tier 1 vendor partnerships.

Join an award-winning, high-growth organisation with a global reputation for excellence.

Be part of a collaborative, high-performing culture where leadership impact is recognised and rewarded.

Where to Advertise Cyber Security Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising cyber security jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, heavily vetted and in high demand across government, financial services, critical national infrastructure and the private sector simultaneously. Many of the strongest candidates hold active security clearances, are not actively job-searching through general platforms, and move primarily through specialist networks and trusted referrals. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that security professionals expect. Specialist platforms, government-affiliated channels and cleared candidate networks each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by CybersecurityJobs.tech, covers where to advertise cyber security roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Cyber Security Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Cyber security is one of the few sectors where demand for talent has never once dipped. Every major technological shift of the past decade — cloud migration, remote working, AI adoption, the proliferation of connected devices — has expanded the attack surface that security professionals are expected to defend. And every expansion of that attack surface has generated more jobs. But the cyber security jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. It is a structurally different market. The threats have evolved, the technologies used to combat them have changed, the regulatory environment has tightened considerably, and the roles being created reflect all of that. A job seeker who understands only the cyber security landscape of 2023 is already working with an outdated map. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping defensive and offensive security practice, and how the definition of a cyber security professional is broadening well beyond the traditional image of a network defender in a SOC. This article breaks down what the UK cyber security jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.

Penetration Tester Jobs in the UK: What Employers Actually Want in 2026

The demand for skilled professionals in cyber security has never been higher, and penetration testers sit at the very heart of this rapidly evolving industry. As organisations across the UK continue to digitise their operations, protect sensitive data, and defend against increasingly sophisticated threats, the need for ethical hackers has grown dramatically. If you are considering a career in this field—or looking to advance within it—it is essential to understand what employers are really looking for in 2026. This guide breaks down the current expectations, required skills, certifications, and practical experience that can help you stand out in a competitive job market.
