We are seeking an experienced technology sales leader to join our AWS Professional Services (ProServe) team and help shape the future of automotive and manufacturing in EMEA. In this role, you will partner with our most strategic automotive and manufacturing customers to design transformative programs focused on AI/GenAI/Agentic AI, IT modernization, and cloud migration.
You will serve as a trusted advisor to C-suite executives and SVPs across Digital, IT, AI, and key business functions, from Manufacturing Operations to R&D/Engineering to Supply Chain to Connected Vehicle platforms. Working alongside ProServe sales, delivery teams, and specialist groups, you will design solutions that achieve meaningful business outcomes for our customers.
This role combines leadership and hands-on engagement. You will guide and coach your team while directly developing large, programmatic deals for selected accounts. Success in this position is measured through revenue, billable bookings, team engagement, and customer satisfaction (NPS, CSAT).

A proven track record of growing businesses is essential.
This is your opportunity to shape how technology drives business transformation across automotive and manufacturing, from the factory floor to software-defined vehicle platforms to next-generation supply chains. You will be part of a global team of experts who help customers realize their desired business outcomes through AWS solutions and services.
