Full Job Description
Front's Account Management team owns a book of business - and turning that book into revenue is the job. As a Senior Account Manager, you'll run point on Front's largest, most strategic accounts: closing renewals, hunting for expansion, and negotiating your way to bigger deals every quarter. This is a quota-carrying seat for someone who treats every account like a pipeline of upside, not a maintenance task.

You'll be paired with a Customer Success Manager who keeps the product humming, but the commercial number is yours. Win the renewal, land the upsell, close the multi-year deal. This role is built for a closer who wants a bigger book, bigger deals, and the autonomy to run their territory like a business.

What will you be doing?
  • Own the number for a portfolio of Front's largest strategic accounts - renewals, upsell, cross-sell, and net revenue retention are your quota
  • Run and close complex, multi-stakeholder negotiations, from renewal terms to premium package upsells to multi-year contracts
  • Hunt for expansion inside your existing book - using usage and health signals from your CSM partner to find the next deal before the customer asks
  • Build the pitch: position services and premium packages as revenue-driving add-ons, not afterthoughts
  • Forecast like a pro - accurate, defensible pipeline and renewal forecasting that leadership can plan the business around
  • Set the standard for the team - your deal strategy and negotiation playbook become what other AMs copy
  • Go toe-to-toe cross-functionally with Sales, Support, Product, and Marketing to clear blockers and close faster
  • Represent the customer's voice in pricing and packaging conversations - and use it to close bigger deals


What skills and experience do you need?
  • 5+ years carrying a number in Account Management, Renewals, or a commercial Customer Success role in SaaS, with a track record of hitting or beating quota
  • Proven closer - you've run complex, multi-stakeholder negotiations and multi-year contracts and won
  • Track record positioning and selling services or premium packages as part of the deal, not a separate ask
  • Sharp with data - you use usage and health signals to build the business case and know exactly which accounts to push
  • A negotiator's instincts and the relationship chops to keep the customer close while still pushing for the better deal
  • Process-driven - you build the systems and playbooks that let you run a bigger book without dropping deals
  • Comfortable partnering with CSMs, Solutions Architects, or technical teams, but never confused about who owns the commercial outcome
  • Fluency with AI tools and a bias toward using them to move faster, think sharper, and automate the repetitive


Front operates on a hybrid model - we come together in the office each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to collaborate and stay connected.

What we offer
  • Competitive salary
  • Equity (we are post-series D & backed by some of the best VCs in the US)
  • Private health insurance, including plan options at no cost to employees
  • Paid parental leave
  • Flexible time off policy
  • Flexibility to work from home Monday and Friday, unless posted as a fully remote role
  • Mental health support with Workplace Options
  • Family planning support with Maven
  • $100 per month Lifestyle Stipend to spend on fitness, health and wellness, and other activities
  • Wellness Days - Fronteers get an additional day off on months with no holidays
  • Winter Break - Our offices are closed from Christmas to New Year's Day!
