  • Proactively identify trends, recurring issues, risks, and improvement opportunities; maintain an accurate view of account health.
  • Track, monitor, and report on incidents and ticket performance (e.g., volumes, SLA attainment, themes), supporting both client and internal reporting needs.
  • Escalate issues requiring investigation or prioritisation within Unily and manage them through to resolution, ensuring clear ownership and timely updates.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams (Support, Engineering, Product, Customer Success) to improve outcomes and drive continuous service improvement.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders and decision-makers within assigned accounts.
  • Plan and deliver regular account review meetings, presentations, and reports to communicate service value, performance, and agreed next actions.
  • Stay current on Unily features and relevant technology developments to identify opportunities and advise customers appropriately.
  • Ensure timely and effective communication of technical updates, risks, and progress to clients and internal stakeholders.
  • Maintain accurate account documentation and client-specific support information (e.g., environments, contacts, runbooks, known issues).

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
  • 2+ years' experience in technical account management, customer success, support, or a related client-facing technical role.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to translate technical detail for non-technical audiences.
  • Working knowledge of ITIL practices, including incident, problem, and release management.
  • Strong technical foundation and the ability to understand, troubleshoot, and explain technical concepts.
