Responsibilities
- Assumer la responsabilité commerciale complète, y compris les renouvellements, les ventes additionnelles et croisées, la négociation et la conclusion.
Requirements
- You have managed a high-touch portfolio of 10 to 25 accounts with a structured, recurring, senior-level cadence per account
- You have personally owned the full sales cycle: renewals, upsell, cross-sell, negotiation and closing. You have deals where you ran the negotiation and the close yourself
- You speak and write English at a C2 level. Concise, structured, impactful communication is verified at every step, and the entire hiring process runs in English
- You have worked with US & EMEA based enterprise clients and international stakeholders
- You turn project data into business narratives: you select the indicators that matter to your client's stakes (ROI, adoption, impact) instead of reporting raw activity
- You qualify and run long, complex cycles with a structured methodology (MEDDIC, BANT, SPIN or equivalent), and you can show how it changed a real deal
- You have at least 5 years of experience managing enterprise client portfolios in B2B SaaS, as a Customer Success Manager, Strategic Account Manager, or an Account Executive with genuine account management ownership
- You have built and sustained direct relationships with Directors and C-levels over 12 months or more, beyond operational contacts, including through difficult project phases
- Sustained relationship building. You create trust quickly and maintain it over months: proactive cadence, re-engaging silent sponsors, staying present at Director and C-level rather than retreating to operational contacts
- Humility and coachability. You self-assess honestly and integrate feedback fast
- Team play in a duo. You work as a true pair with a Project Manager: proactive mutual information, respect for their constraints, shared focus on the client's business goals. Prior experience of a CSM and PM duo model is a plus
- Prioritization. You take height on your portfolio regularly, rank accounts by value, risk and renewal proximity, and arbitrate your own agenda accordingly
- Domain and tooling exposure. Internal communications, employee advocacy or engagement knowledge, CS tooling (Gainsight, Planhat or equivalent), BI dashboards, or frontline-worker and manufacturing client contexts are all pluses, none is required
