Professional Services Lead
📍 Hull | 🕒 Full-time
We’re working with a rapidly growing, AI-native document management and workflow automation platform at a pivotal stage of growth. This is a senior, hands-on opportunity to join early, take ownership, and shape how Professional Services is delivered as the business scales.

As one of the first senior hires in this area, you’ll play a key role in building the Professional Services function from the ground up — defining standards, documentation, delivery processes, and a scalable services model. You’ll also work closely with Product and Leadership, feeding client insight directly into the product roadmap.
