Zendesk / CX Solutions Consultant

This role sits between technical implementation and client consulting – and both sides matter equally.

On the technical side, you’ll work across the full Zendesk suite – Support, Knowledge, Chat, Voice, Analytics, AI agents – connecting Zendesk to external systems via API using Make.com or n8n as middleware. Define endpoints for developers and build light custom Zendesk apps using Zendesk App Builder or AI-assisted development. You’ll need to understand what’s possible within Zendesk’s architecture and know when and why to push its boundaries.

On the consulting side, you’ll work directly with clients who are often coming from fragmented, manual, or outdated customer support operations. You’ll listen, assess, and translate messy real-world workflows into clean, scalable Zendesk environments – sometimes optimising what exists, sometimes rebuilding from scratch. You take the lead, perform requirements mapping, and own the outcome.

What makes this role unique is the depth of client immersion it requires. You temporarily become a highly knowledgeable member of each client’s team – learning their operations, understanding their agents’ behaviour, and building systems that feel intuitive to the people who use them every day. You then advise, build, and onboard – leaving clients with the most capable, well-structured setup their operations allow for.

AI is increasingly shaping how we operate and what clients expect. You’ll introduce and drive AI adoption within Zendesk environments – but first and foremost, you build the clean, well-structured foundation that makes AI actually work.

The ability to communicate complex solutions clearly and bring clients along on the journey is just as important as the technical work itself.

You’re a natural system builder. You get genuine satisfaction from walking into someone else’s operational mess, making sense of it, and leaving behind something clean, efficient, and intuitive. Every client brings a new set of challenges. Others’ problems don’t drain you – they engage you.

This role involves constant learning about Zendesk and its surrounding ecosystem. You’re the kind of person who follows Zendesk product updates not because you have to, but because you’re actually curious. You test new features before clients ask about them. You engage in Zendesk’s early access programs/betas, community events once you notice them. You spot a better way of doing something and can’t help but build it.

Engagements move fast – clients come to us for focused, time-bound projects and expect sharp, confident delivery. You thrive in that environment. And when it’s done, you’re proud of what you’ve left behind – not because someone will check, but because that’s just your standard.
