- Client Book Migration & Multi-Product Attach: Partner with firm principals to migrate additional client books onto the cloud platform; drive organic expansion and cross-sell across ecosystem solutions including Payroll, Payments, Corporate Cards/Expense Management, Bill Pay, and Accountant Suites.
- Practice Onboarding & Tier Progression: Lead structured onboarding from initial introduction to accelerate time-to-first-value; coach accounting professionals through certification programs (e.g., ProAdvisor) and tier progression milestones.
- Campaign Targeting & Digital Leverage: Deploy pre-built expansion toolkits, educational webinars, and digital 1:many campaigns targeted at qualifying client segments across the portfolio to drive self-serve adoption.
- Dedicated Partner Escalation Route: Serve as the trusted, authoritative single point of contact for complex partner operational inquiries; coordinate with Technical Support, Approvals/KYB, and Risk teams to deliver industry-leading response resolution.

- Influence Without Authority: Skilled at motivating external partner principals to adopt new workflows while coordinating internal cross-functional partners (Sales, Product, Support, Approvals) to resolve blockers.
- Accountability & Resilience: Thrives in a fast-paced, high-growth environment with ownership over commercial outcomes; maintains composure, focus, and empathy under high-volume demands.
