About this role

The challenge

As a Presales Manager, you will play a critical role in helping Plenit scale its commercial success across international markets.

About us

Plenit (formerly Jotelulu) is the Operating Platform for IT Service Providers. We help MSPs, ISVs, VARs, and IT resellers run, scale, and grow their businesses on top of our own sovereign infrastructure, with footprint across Europe and the Americas.

We are a European cloud platform with a clear conviction: digital sovereignty matters, and the IT channel deserves a partner that speaks their language, builds for their reality, and stays close to the ground. We are not enterprise-y. We are simple, pragmatic, and obsessed with our partners’ success.

Five years in, we are 130 people, four countries, and growing fast — which is exactly why we are bringing this role on now.

 
We’re passionate about technology, but we’re also a bit geeky—we love Star Wars, video games, 90s movies, and pop culture. We work hard and with passion, but we also have a great time together. At Plenit, you’ll find a balance between work and fun, where teammates often become friends, and boredom is rare—there’s always something new, unexpected, and memorable happening.

Your health, covered
Taking care of our people is part of how we do things. That’s why Plenit provides private health insurance, fully paid for by the company.


Keep growing
We want Plenit to be a place where you can keep learning, take on new challenges, and continue growing professionally. You’ll have opportunities to develop within the company and keep building on your skills and experience.

You’ll also receive an annual learning budget that you can use for training, courses, certifications, and other resources that support your professional development.


A great place to connect
Our Madrid office is located in the heart of the city and offers a welcoming, collaborative, and energetic environment where you can work, share, and spend time with the team. You’ll also find great coffee and fresh fruit.


A culture built on trust
We believe in doing things well, taking ownership, supporting one another, and enjoying what we build. We value open and honest communication, different perspectives, and working together to keep moving forward. Our culture isn’t just something we talk about; you’ll experience it every day in how we collaborate, contribute, and make things happen.
