Are you an Account Manager who enjoys growing relationships rather than constantly chasing new business?

We''re working with an established UK software provider that has been delivering business-critical SaaS solutions for over 25 years. Following significant investment and continued growth, they''re looking to appoint an Account Manager to manage and develop an existing portfolio of customers across the UK.

This isn''t a cold-calling role.

You''ll inherit an established client base and focus on building relationships, retaining customers and identifying opportunities to increase revenue through additional products and services.

The Opportunity for an Account Manager

This is a genuine opportunity to join a growing software business where you''ll have ownership of your own portfolio and the autonomy to manage it as if it were your own business.

You''ll work closely with clients across HR, Operations, Payroll, Finance and IT, becoming a trusted advisor whilst working alongside internal marketing, customer success and product teams to maximise growth.

The business has an excellent culture, encourages personal development and offers clear opportunities for progression as it continues to expand.

The Role of Account Manager

  • Manage and develop an existing portfolio of B2B customers across the UK.
  • Build long-term relationships with key stakeholders.
  • Identify opportunities to upsell and cross-sell additional software solutions.
  • Conduct regular account reviews and commercial meetings via Teams and face-to-face.
  • Prepare proposals, negotiate commercial agreements and close additional business.
  • Work closely with internal teams to ensure outstanding customer experience.
  • Maintain accurate CRM records and pipeline forecasts.
  • Manage your own diary with the flexibility of a fully remote role.

What We''re Looking For In An Account Manager

We''re open to speaking with candidates from a variety of backgrounds, including SaaS, technology, HR software, payroll, telecoms or any consultative account management environment.

Ideally you''ll have:

  • Around 1-3 years'' experience within Account Management, Customer Success or B2B Sales.
  • A track record of growing customer accounts through relationship management.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Commercial awareness and a consultative sales style.
  • Experience using CRM systems.
  • A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel to customer sites when required.

Previous software or SaaS experience would be advantageous but isn''t essential.

  • -35,000 basic salary
  • Uncapped commission (OTE -60,000+)
  • Fully remote working
