Role Overview

The Strategic Account Manager owns the end-to-end relationship for key accounts, serving as VIATechnik's primary commercial relationship holder and growth driver across key regions, projects, and service lines. This is not a support or bridge role. The Strategic Account Manager carries full accountability for the revenue, pipeline development, client satisfaction, and account expansion for the identified accounts.

Day-to-day, this means leading all sales activities for the account, including bid form completion, estimating, proposal development, and contract execution. It means building and maintaining relationships with the people who control project budgets: Project Executives, Senior Project Managers, VDC Directors, and regional leadership. It means having enough operational awareness to speak credibly about active projects without carrying delivery responsibility.

The role also includes tightening the internal processes that support the account: estimating procedures, project backlog management, project handoff quality, and department coordination.

This position requires regular travel, primarily across the Northeast, New York, and Florida, with West Coast engagement coordinated through the Project Director. The expectation is facetime with key stakeholders at the project and regional level for each key account, not just remote account management.
