Would you like to kick start your career in a supportive, collaborative and innovative company?

Do you enjoy working as part of an enthusiastic, passionate, and collaborative team?

Join our Vendor Engagement Team

The Vendor Engagement team is a key part of the newly structured Vendor and Cloud Alliance within the Commercial Engagement Team. It oversees all sales activities with top vendors, ensuring alignment with the Softcat vendor framework. The team focuses on building strong relationships with sales and enablement teams to drive engaging vendor-led initiatives. It also ensures important vendor messages are delivered to the sales team at the right time and in the most effective way.

Success. The Softcat Way.

There's a uniqueness to Softcat – what we do, how we do it and why we do it. That's because we help customers to use technology to succeed, by putting our employees first. We give everyone the chance to step up and show how much they can achieve. We succeed when all our people succeed.

Connecting vendor priorities to sales success As the Vendor Engagement Deputy Team Leader, you will connect vendors and sales by translating vendor priorities into timely, relevant engagement aligned to Softcat's technology towers. You will work closely with Alliance Managers and sales teams to deliver targeted enablement, ensuring teams clearly understand when to position vendor solutions and the value they bring. You will also take on leadership responsibilities, including recruitment, performance management, budgeting, and leading 1:1s and team meetings.

As Vendor Engagement Deputy Team Leader, you'll be responsible for:

  • Executing vendor engagement plans and Joint Business Plans in alignment with the Vendor Framework
  • Building strong relationships with Alliance Managers, sales, and marketing to drive aligned and effective vendor activity
  • Creating and delivering clear, consistent value propositions with internal stakeholders
  • Planning and delivering targeted sales enablement, including training, incentives, and events
  • Monitoring progress through regular performance reviews and sharing insights with key stakeholders
  • Managing the team through recruitment, performance management, budgeting, and leading 1:1s and team meetings

We'd love you to have

  • Ability to build strong stakeholder relationships and confidently be able to influence across teams
  • Demonstrate commercial awareness, focusing on outcomes that drive business value
  • Be able to Lead and develop people, support performance and team success
  • Highly organised with strong process discipline and attention to detail
  • Proactive, solution-focused approach to challenges and improvements

We also acknowledge that the confidence gap and imposter syndrome are a real thing and can get in the way of us meeting fantastic talent, so please don't hesitate to apply – we would love to hear from you!

Flexibility around school pick up and drop offs

Working with us

Wherever you work, we want you to experience the freedom and autonomy to realise your potential. You will feel supported by a team that celebrates individuality, encourages different perspectives, and embraces every background.
