Cambridge, United Kingdom Tait - Europe, Middle East and Africa Full time
Background

Tait Communications is a global leader in designing and delivering critical communications solutions which are the right fit for a variety of industries including: public safety agencies; government services; utilities; extractive industries and urban transport providers. Across the world, users of Tait products and services are better able to protect themselves and the public, be more responsive and more productive.

While several corporate functions are based in Christchurch, New Zealand, the company prides itself on its international customer base and global support network. The company works with a network of sales offices, dealers, system integrators and consultants that spans the globe.

Customers around the world turn to Tait for developing products, migrating systems, customising features, configuring networks, training users, engineering support, and installation services. Customers commit to Tait because its people have a proven track record of taking the time to listen, understand and act upon customer requirements.

Scope of Role

Systems Engineers support the business by applying their technical knowledge, analytical capability, interpersonal skills, and business acumen to engagements at any stage of the customer solution lifecycle - developing sales proposals, designing systems and solutions, supporting system implementation, and providing professional consulting services.

The TELSE Sales & System Engineering group within Services provides subject-matter expertise, backup technical capacity, and a conduit into the Christchurch-based Tait organisation for customer-facing teams in regional offices. It is expected that the Systems Engineer role will engage in a mix of ad-hoc sales support activity and assigned customer project work for regional teams. From time to time the role will work directly with customers. It is critical that the customer perceives Tait to be a responsive, innovative, competent, and professional organisation. How the Systems Engineer behaves and communicates with colleagues and customers will drive a large part of that perception.

The Systems Engineering role requires a broad understanding of communication systems and the ability to work across multiple technical disciplines. In addition, excellent written and spoken communications skills, and a positive attitude to doing what is required to achieve an excellent outcome for internal and external customers are a must. The role,

Although base in the UK, will provide sales support to the entire TEMA region so frequent travel will

be required including driving overseas.
