Your influence will stretch across Sales, RevOps, Product, and Leadership, shaping the customer experience and driving revenue growth.

• Strategic Account Management – Personally manage or co‑manage a select set of high‑value strategic accounts. Lead executive relationships, conduct business reviews, and drive high‑stakes renewal and expansion conversations.
• Process & Playbook Development – Build and refine frameworks that scale the team: account planning, QBR structure, health scoring, renewal playbooks, and expansion motions. Define KPIs and the tools/dashboards used to track them.
