What you'll do
  • Hire, lead, and inspire an initial team of 6+ client partners across the US

  • Monitor key account health indicators and surface strategic insights to executive leadership

  • Be the cultural and strategic foundation of a team that will shape Vention’s future 
What you bring
  • 8+ years in account management, client success, or software consulting, including 5+ years in a leadership role within client partnerships
  • Experience managing a minimum portfolio of $40M in recurring revenue or a billable headcount of 400+ FTEs
  • A proven builder who has created and scaled CP processes, not just inherited them
  • Deep expertise in client growth strategy, stakeholder mapping, and value delivery
  • Background in software development services, software consulting, or tech delivery
  • An excellent communicator, credible with both founders and engineers
  • A strong leader with a proven talent for mentoring and developing teams

  • Thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced environments with a strong sense of ownership
  • Bonus: Experience in VC-backed startup ecosystems
What you'll get
  • Work mode – hybrid 2 days onsite in New York office
  • 100% employer-covered medical insurance (including dependents). Comprehensive dental and vision coverage available for employees and dependents.
  • 401(k) with 4% company match
