The Account Manager is equal parts relationship management, sales, and client satisfaction. You will be responsible for owning a portfolio of accounts, executing renewals contracts, and upsell opportunities. We believe that keeping our existing customers is equally as important as acquiring new ones.

You will work with the Sales and Customer Success teams to identify growth opportunities and provide insights that improve future outcomes.
