• Performance & Analytics: Establish and monitor the right metrics, dashboards and reporting; use data to optimize coverage, productivity and targeting.
  Cross-Functional Partnership: Work closely with Sales, Marketing, Onboarding, Product, Finance and Operations to align acquisition to post-sale motions, surface product feedback, and improve customer outcomes.
• Customer Advocacy & Escalations: Represent  customer needs internally, lead resolution for strategic/high-impact accounts and systemic issues, and steward voice-of-customer insights.
• Headcount & Budgeting: Lead workforce planning, staffing models, and budget recommendations for the  account management organization.
