  • Develop and drive account management plans for clients
  • Conduct regular account health checks
  • Identify and communicate upsell opportunities to the sales team
  • Build subject-matter expertise to support pre-sales, upsell, and training activities
  • Act as a liaison between clients and internal teams such as Product and Research & Development on key client initiatives

  • An innovative, motivated, client-oriented, and commercially aware mindset
  • Ability to manage projects and multitask independently
  • Strong teamwork skills, with the ability to manage the expectations of a diverse and demanding client base
  • Uncompromising personal and business integrity
  • 5+ years of experience, ideally in a client-facing role within financial services or sustainability
