The Engagement Manager serves as the primary bridge between MaintainX's sales and delivery teams, ensuring that enterprise clients fully understand what to expect from our implementation and onboarding process. This role is critical in setting the foundation for a successful partnership by clearly communicating MaintainX's approach, methodologies, and timelines while instilling confidence in the quality and reliability of our services.

From the first client interaction through project completion, the Engagement Manager ensures that expectations are aligned, risks are mitigated early, and customers experience a smooth, transparent journey from contract to go-live.

The Engagement Manager partners with the sales team during the presales process to represent MaintainX's professional services organization and explain our client onboarding methodology.

Throughout the engagement, the Engagement Manager monitors delivery progress, facilitates communication between MaintainX teams and the customer, and proactively manages any changes or challenges that may arise. Their focus is on creating a positive, predictable experience that builds trust and positions MaintainX as a long-term strategic partner.

Ultimately, the Engagement Manager's success is measured by how well clients understand and embrace the onboarding process, how accurately expectations are managed, and how confidently customers move through implementation toward successful adoption.

About you:

What's in it for you:
  • Competitive salary and meaningful equity opportunities.
  • Healthcare, dental, and vision coverage.
  • 401(k) / RRSP enrolment program.
  • Take what you need PTO.
