This role is responsible for uncovering net new upsell opportunity, expanding existing accounts, and delivering maximum value through our solutions.

Strategic Account Leadership Build deep, multi-level relationships within client organizations, acting as a trusted advisor and advocate. Align solutions to customer business goals, articulating value to drive retention, renewals, and expansion.
Continuously assess and adapt to customer needs, mitigating risk and maximizing long-term impact. This includes a deep understanding of industry and market headwinds and tailwinds. Growth Execution & Hunting Mindset Own the full sales cycle for renewals and upsells with a strong emphasis on proactive discovery and qualification.
Prospect actively within your book of business, supported by a high volume of calling and structured outreach.
