What is a customer engagement manager?

As a customer engagement manager, you perform a number of client-related duties, ranging from marketing and sales development to providing technical support to sales teams. You consult directly with clients to determine project goals and then develop and execute a plan to meet those goals. A career as a customer engagement manager requires you have some formal qualifications and education, typically at least bachelor’s degree in business administration or a related field, and several years of prior work experience in customer engagement or sales projects. Strong leadership qualities and excellent verbal and written communication skills will also set you ahead of other candidates.
