* Consistently find ways to help the client recognize their return on investment
* Grow your accounts naturally through excellent client service
* Manage client relationships by organizing and leading routine check-in points, educating and integrating the client and developer, and tracking progress to create a sustainable partnership
* Creatively problem solve to ensure we're finding the balance between advocating for the client while balancing business needs
* Proactively and swiftly escalate when necessary to solve for challenges that arise throughout the client lifecycle
* Uncover opportunities for growth by understanding client's business needs and facilitate upsell conversations between Account Manager and client
* Work cross-functionally with Andela counterparts to manage healthy partnerships and ensure developer success
* Be accountable for accurate data upkeep
* Partner with Andela's Product team and cross-functional stakeholders to provide client feedback and support the evolution of Andela's solution
* Identify clients who are willing to serve as references, as well as facilitate conversations between existing clients and potential clients where fit exists
* Help drive client references, referrals, and product adoption
* Assist with internal operational tasks and projects, including reporting, data gathering and issue resolutions

What makes you a great fit for this role:

* 4+ years years of professional work experience
* 2+ years of relevant work experience in a client-facing client success, account management or professional services organization
* Consistent track record of exceeding KPIs and providing professional client service in a dynamic, start-up environment
* Exceptional communication skills, highly organized, and collaborative
* Unprecedented attention to detail - you let nothing go unnoticed, overlooked, or undone
* Strong writing skills, with a keen eye for polish, grammar, and tone
* You consider project management a strength and have experience using internal resources and stakeholders to execute against deadlines
* You have work experience with best-in-class technology companies and/or with distributed teams
* Self-motivated, proactive team player with innovative ideas to strengthen internal relationships and inspire client loyalty and adoption
