TOGA [thrust] takeoff departing Phoenix on 25R; just about the time for thrust reduction; we hit a pretty good jolt of wake turbulence from the previously departing aircraft. It felt like the plane was 'hanging' there for a second. Rolling left then quickly right. It happened quickly and I corrected promptly. Wings level; lowered the nose a bit to get the speed back. It was over with and corrected and climbing as fast as it occurred. A little startling for me; I have to admit. I have been in wake before; but this one caught me off guard at the end of a long day as it was the first experience with wake in the Airbus. So this has completely redirected my attention to get caught up with flying SID. I'm climbing west into the full sun glare; in a hot plane; towards the end of a full day; this is not helping things at all. After the wake our focus shifted to routine ATC instruction compliance and flying the SID; we kept climbing. As you may have already guessed; the thrust reduction was overlooked way back about the time the wake turbulence occurred; and just as soon as we leveled off. OVERSPEED! The speed never exceeded the first red tick mark on the tape. But there it was! Obviously; we reduced thrust. Got the plane in its proper configuration and continued on.
A320 series First Officer reported a wake turbulence encounter shortly after takeoff from PHX distracted the flight crew from executing the thrust reduction from TOGA power resulting in an overspeed.
