  • Effective Communicator: You can break down complex data into actionable insights and communicate them clearly.

What You'll Do:
  • Lead a team of Account Managers, Account Directors, Key Account Directors, and managers to surpass our business retention and expansion targets in close partnership with Sales
  • Drive strong commercial results by coaching + modeling 360 degree client relationship-building and driving value realization for customers through strong product utilization
  • Accurately forecast retention and growth for your book of business through operational rigor, inspection, and a deep understanding of the dynamics of our accounts
  • Own talent management and development for individual contributors and managers through hands on coaching, mentorship, and implementation/execution of scalable performance management programs
  • Maintain strong performance + uphold our cultural values through a period of change and transformation
  • Craft a clear narrative for your team's performance + customer signals clearly to leadership
  • Recruit top talent for your growing team
  • Act as a senior voice for the customer across the organization aligning with Product, Enablement, and Marketing on roadmap feedback, go-to-market motions, and customer facing initiatives.

Candidate Requirements:
  • 10+ years of work experience in sales, account management, or client success
  • 5+ years of direct people management experience
  • 2+ year managing managers
  • A high aptitude and willingness to learn. Because of our diverse base of clients, much of the technical knowledge required to succeed will be learned on the job
  • Ability to distill and explain complex issues in simple terms
  • Experience operationalizing the customer journey
  • An intelligent, articulate, consultative and confident client facing professional
  • Must have the personal motivation and ability to contribute to a dynamic and entrepreneurial team culture
  • Superior ability to develop rapport with new people, and to maintain relationships, combined with a positive and proactive personality
