The Role:

We are looking for a Customer Success Account Manager to join our Data Transformation business, playing a critical role in ensuring our clients achieve real, measurable value from their partnership with us.

This is a relationship-first role - you do not need a technical background (although desired). What matters most is your ability to build trust with clients, keep projects and partnerships on track, and ensure every customer feels genuinely supported throughout their journey with us. You will be the glue between our clients and our internal teams, making sure the right conversations happen at the right time and that nothing falls through the cracks.

This is a hands-on role that requires strong organisation, confidence working with stakeholders at all levels, and the ability to balance day-to-day client engagement with a longer-term focus on retention, growth and continuous improvement.

Key Responsibilities:

• Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for a portfolio of clients, building strong relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
• Oversee customer onboarding, ensuring clients are set up for success from day one and understand what to expect at each stage of their engagement.
• Run regular check-ins and quarterly business reviews (QBR’s), keeping clients informed on progress and demonstrating the value we are delivering.
• Track customer health across your portfolio - identifying accounts that may need additional attention and escalating risks early.
• Work closely with the delivery teams to make sure client expectations are being met, and any issues are resolved quickly.
• Support contract renewals by maintaining high levels of satisfaction and proactively addressing any concerns before they become problems.
• Identify opportunities to grow accounts by spotting where additional services could genuinely benefit the client, and passing these on to the sales team.
• Act as the internal champion for your customers, bringing their feedback and needs into team conversations to help us continuously improve.
• Maintain accurate records of customer interactions, health status, and activity in Hubspot.

Skills and Attributes Required

• 2–5 years of experience in a customer-facing role such as Customer Success, Account Management, Client Services, or Project Coordination.
• A natural relationship-builder who genuinely enjoys helping clients succeed and can manage multiple accounts without dropping the ball.
• Strong organisational skills - able to juggle competing priorities, follow through on commitments, and keep stakeholders informed.

Desirable

• Experience working with public sector, healthcare, or financial services clients.
• Exposure to professional services, consulting, or managed services environments.
• Familiarity with project-based or milestone-driven client engagements.
