Senior Solution Consultant
Aldridge, Irving, TX, United States
Who We Are
Aldridge is a leading Managed Service Provider (MSP) offering scalable IT and cybersecurity solutions to fast‑growing, small to mid‑market businesses in the US. Founded in 1984, this private equity‑backed company is a technology management consulting and outsourcing firm that provides best‑fit solutions through a tailored approach and local relationships. With offices in Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, and Seattle, the company’s unwavering dedication, superior technical expertise, and keen understanding of business processes have transformed it into a trusted partner for its clients. With a strong reputation for delivering high‑quality services, Aldridge is committed to helping its clients optimize their technology infrastructure and achieve their business goals.
We help organizations move from their current IT state to a more secure, standardized, and scalable future. Our work spans assessments, architecture, and hands‑on delivery cloud transformations, Microsoft 365 modernization, security hardening, network and infrastructure upgrades, and complex migrations. We operate in a disciplined professional services environment: projects are scoped around outcomes, planned before work starts, and executed with clear ownership and governance.
Position Overview Aldridge is seeking a business technology solutions leader to serve as a senior, client‑facing advisor who helps organizations align technology decisions with business goals. This role operates at the intersection of business strategy, technology understanding, and client trust, and is designed for individuals who excel in executive‑level conversations rather than hands‑on implementation.
The primary purpose of this role is to lead business‑technology conversations with clients, understand their business objectives and current IT environments, and translate those inputs into clear roadmaps, recommendations, and actionable next steps. This role is frequently brought into client conversations by Outside Sales and Account Management when technology challenges require thoughtful solutioning, prioritization, or executive‑level explanation.
In addition, this role may act as the primary delivery resource for select paid consulting and recurring advisory engagements, such as IT audits, assessments, findings & recommendations work, and fractional CIO or fractional IT Director services.
Key Responsibilities
Partner closely with Outside Sales and Account Management, joining client conversations where solution leadership and strategic context are required.
Support opportunity development by shaping solution direction and building confidence in Aldridge’s recommended approach.
Help clients understand why change is needed and how Aldridge can help deliver it.
Represent Aldridge in person with professionalism and credibility, establishing trust and foundational understanding with client organizations.
Engage directly with business owners, executives, and senior leaders to understand organizational goals, constraints, risks, and growth initiatives.
Establish a clear understanding of clients’ current IT environments at a conceptual and practical level, sufficient to guide strategic decision‑making.
Serve as a trusted business‑technology advisor, framing technology discussions in terms of outcomes, trade‑offs, risk, and value.
Develop technology roadmaps that align IT initiatives to client business objectives, sequencing improvements responsibly and realistically.
Collaborate with Professional Services and Managed Services teams to ensure recommendations are practical, supportable, and executable, even when this role is not responsible for implementation.
Produce client‑ready roadmap summaries and presentations for executive and leadership audiences.
Clearly articulate technology options, implications, and recommendations to executive and semi‑technical audiences.
Help clients move from uncertainty to decision‑readiness through structured conversations and clear guidance.
Define project scopes of work (SOWs) for approved initiatives, enabling confident client approval and transition to delivery teams.
Serve as the primary delivery owner for select paid consulting engagements, including IT audits and environment assessments, risk, gap, and maturity evaluations, findings & recommendations reports, and recurring advisory engagements such as fractional CIO or fractional IT Director roles, providing ongoing strategic guidance to client leadership.
Plan, execute, and present consulting engagements with clear scope, structure, and executive‑ready outputs.
