Apply for Senior Enterprise Account Manager

Founded in 2023, Handraise is an AI-native narrative intelligence platform helping the world’s most visible companies understand, manage, and shape how they are perceived across media, markets, and AI systems.

We work with some of the most influential brands in the world, and our investors include Silverton Partners, Floodgate, and Bill Wood Ventures.

Our Founder previously founded TrendKite, the PR analytics company that helped define the modern media measurement category before being acquired by Cision for $225M.

We’re a competitive, tight-knit team based in Austin, TX. We value autonomy, ownership, speed, and grit. We’re looking for people who thrive in ambiguity, care deeply about winning, and want to help build a generational company at the center of how brands understand and control their narratives in the age of AI.

Handraise is hiring a Senior Enterprise Account Manager to own and grow relationships with our enterprise customers after the sale.

You will become the primary strategic and commercial partner for some of the world’s largest brands, ensuring they realize meaningful value from Handraise, renew their partnerships, and expand the platform across teams, use cases, and business units.

This is not a traditional support role. You will work directly with senior Communications, PR, and Marketing leaders to understand their priorities, demonstrate measurable value, and turn successful customer relationships into long-term enterprise partnerships.

You’ll work closely with Customer Success, Sales, Product, and company leadership. You will also help build the account management processes, playbooks, and standards that support Handraise as we scale.

If you can build trust with senior executives, identify growth opportunities, navigate complex organizations, and take ownership without waiting for a playbook, this role is for you.

• You are comfortable having difficult conversations and addressing risks directly
• You are curious and passionate about the use and impact of AI
