You work in close collaboration with the Sales, Pre-Sales, Professional Services and Partners teams across the UK to shape the post-sales delivery strategy for our major customers and will report to the UK SSA & DSA leader.

DSAs collaborate with sales and engineering teams to drive our customers' adoption and growth. They guide complex customers to maximise platform value and ROI.

You and your team will contribute to the creation of assets to build the Delivery Solution Architect practice and improve effectiveness and consistency in working with customers.

The impact you will have:

  • Manage a diverse team of Delivery Solution Architects to achieve customer, company, and team goals (business value, usage growth, career growth and hiring)
  • Assign accounts and distribute work across individuals for optimal customer coverage and team balance
  • Inspire the team to be customer-obsessed by understanding customer goals, their use cases, and Databricks technology
  • Partner with Sales, pre-sales and professional services teams to accelerate the growth of customers
  • Work with teams to reduce customer risk and help your team with escalations.
  • Lead team activities to monitor customer progress and forecast growth
  • Provide input to grow and improve internal processes and customer success service offerings
  • Promote cross-functional programs, plans, and documentation

What we look for:

  • 7+ years of experience in a customer-facing role
  • Experience leading a team of pre- or post-sale consultants/solution architects, technical account managers or customer success engineers.
  • Experience in organisational and financial planning (e.g revenue forecast) on a team/department level
  • Conversant with business issues our customers face today, and likely big data use cases in different industries

Where to Advertise AI Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising AI jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, highly informed and in demand across multiple sectors simultaneously. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that AI professionals expect — and the filtering mechanisms they rely on. Specialist platforms, direct outreach and academic channels each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise AI roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about time-to-hire across different role types.

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

Artificial intelligence is creating jobs faster than the market can name them. New roles are appearing every quarter, existing titles are splitting into specialisms, and the technologies underpinning it all are evolving at a pace that makes even last year's job descriptions feel dated. For job seekers, this presents a genuinely unusual challenge. In most industries, career planning means understanding a relatively stable landscape and working out where you fit within it. In AI, the landscape itself is being redrawn in real time. The roles with the most hiring activity in 2028 may not yet have a widely agreed job title in 2026. That's not a reason to feel overwhelmed — it's a reason to get informed. The candidates who thrive in this market aren't necessarily those with the longest CVs or the most credentials. They're the ones who understand the direction of travel: which skills are gaining value, which technologies are driving employer decisions, and how the definition of an "AI job" is expanding well beyond the tech sector. This article breaks down what the UK AI jobs market is likely to look like over the next three years — covering emerging job titles, the technologies reshaping hiring, the skills employers are prioritising, and how to position yourself ahead of the curve rather than behind it.

New AI Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Reshaping AI Careers

The artificial intelligence job market in the UK is evolving at an extraordinary pace. With record-breaking investment, government backing, and a surge in enterprise adoption, the landscape of AI employers is shifting rapidly. For candidates exploring opportunities on ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, understanding who is hiring next is just as important as understanding what skills are in demand. In this article, we explore the new and emerging AI employers to watch in 2026, focusing on organisations that have recently secured funding, won major contracts, or expanded their UK footprint. From cutting-edge startups to global giants doubling down on Britain, these companies represent the next wave of AI career opportunities.
