YOUR ROLE
As a Senior Solutions Services Consultant on the Solutions Services team, you will be the bridge between our sales process and successful customer outcomes. You will drive confidence in Zip’s functionality and our ability to meet complex business needs by providing a world-class implementation experience (this is not a delivery/implementation role). Your goal is to improve deal closure rates while ensuring we only commit to delivery paths that are achievable and sustainable. You will play a critical role in the pre-sales and initial contracting phases, drawing on your technical expertise to scope implementations and build high-quality Statements of Work. This is an incredible opportunity to shape the procurement orchestration category by ensuring every new customer starts their journey with a clear, validated path to success.
YOU WILL

- Run technical validations and detailed implementation scoping to align on expectations and ensure all proposed solutions are achievable.
- Negotiate and write Statements of Work (SOW) in close collaboration with the Deal Desk, Account Executives, and prospective customers.
- Drive confidence in Zip's functionality and its ability to meet specific business needs through expert-led presentations and scoping sessions.
- Decrease commitments to functionality or services that are outside of Zip's delivery scope, protecting the integrity of our implementation process.
- Help build the function in collaboration with peers and leadership to establish and improve our assets, talk tracks, systems and processes.
QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years of experience in professional services, implementation consulting, or services engagement, preferably within a fast-paced SaaS environment.
- Proven track record of scoping complex software implementations and drafting detailed Statements of Work (SOW).
- Strong technical aptitude with the ability to run technical validations and translate business requirements into achievable implementation plans.
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills, with experience collaborating across Sales, Deal Desk, and customer stakeholders.

- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., Business, Finance, Legal Studies or Communications).
NICE TO HAVES
