You are part of Vesper’s leadership team and help shape the direction of the company. You lead a team of 8 Account Managers in Amsterdam and Chicago, and you will scale the team significantly. You set the strategy, but you also stay close to the work. You speak with our top customers, close deals yourself, and can do anything your team does.

What you will be doing

• Lead cross-functional initiatives with Product to systematically identify and reduce churn.

• Lead cross-functional initiatives with Product and Marketing to map and capture upsell whitespace across our customer base.

• Go through the full customer journey yourself on a regular cadence, from onboarding to adoption to renewal, so you are intimately familiar with what your Account Managers experience and keep improving your coaching and development.

• Coach and develop Account Managers in commercial acumen, negotiation, data savviness and customer understanding. Lead by example, jumping in to meet customers, solve problems and close deals.

• Recruit, onboard and develop Account Managers as we significantly expand the team in line with our 2027 growth plans and five-year plan.

• Build metrics for account health and team effectiveness, and scale processes and automation so the team stays efficient as our customer base grows.
