Sentant is seeking a driven and highly organized Account Manager to own the full client lifecycle — from onboarding and deployment through ongoing relationship management, retention, and growth. This role is the day-to-day owner of a portfolio of client accounts and the connective tissue between our clients and Sentant’s internal service teams.
The Account Manager is the hands-on operator who makes that strategy real: standing up new clients cleanly, keeping delivery on track, and building trusted relationships that turn clients into long-term partners. The ideal candidate is proactive, detail-obsessed, and thrives in a fast-moving, client-facing environment.
Key Responsibilities
Client Onboarding & Deployment
- Own the end-to-end client onboarding process: kickoff calls, documentation, timelines, internal coordination, and clear expectation setting.
- Drive deployment of new clients onto Sentant’s tools, processes, and communication channels, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks during the transition from sales to service.
- Coordinate closely with engineering, security, and helpdesk teams to stand up client environments accurately and on schedule.
- Create and maintain onboarding documentation and account records so every client starts with a clean, well-organized foundation.
Client Relationship Management
- Serve as the primary day-to-day point of contact for a portfolio of clients post-sale.
- Build strong, trusted relationships with client stakeholders, ensuring they feel supported, informed, and understood.
- Conduct regular client check-ins to stay aligned on goals, priorities, and pain points, and to keep service delivery on track.
- Support and help deliver Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs), preparing materials that surface insights, service value, and opportunities.
Service Delivery & Coordination
- Act as the client’s advocate internally, translating client needs into clear actions for Sentant’s technical and operational teams.
- Track open items, tickets, and projects across the portfolio, following through to resolution and keeping clients updated on progress.
- Proactively identify and escalate delivery risks, service gaps, or blockers before they become client-facing problems.
Client Retention & Growth
- Monitor client satisfaction and health, proactively addressing risks to churn.
- Identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities through a clear understanding of client goals, usage, and evolving needs.
- Partner with leadership, Client Success, and sales to price, pitch, and execute on new initiatives within existing accounts.
Strategic Insight & Planning
- Track how each client’s business is evolving — org changes, growth, and shifting priorities — and share what it means for service alignment.
- Maintain a working knowledge of IT, cybersecurity, and compliance trends, especially as they relate to the startup and VC ecosystem.
- Contribute clean, well-documented account notes and health metrics that feed Sentant’s broader Client Success strategy.
Ideal Candidate Profile
Required Skills & Experience
- 2+ years in an Account Management, Client Success, project coordination, or similar client-facing role — preferably at a Managed Service Provider (MSP) or in IT / Cyber / Compliance.
- Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent client relationships or projects without dropping details.
- Outstanding organization, communication, and follow-through skills.
- Comfortable coordinating with technical teams and non-technical stakeholders alike, and translating between them.
- A proactive, ownership-driven mindset — you chase down answers and close loops without being asked.
Preferred Qualifications
- Exposure to MSP, IT service delivery, or cybersecurity environments.
- Familiarity with startups, venture-backed companies, and their operational lifecycles.
- Working familiarity with tools like Jamf, Okta, Google Workspace, or MDM/SSO systems.
- Comfort using metrics, reporting, and CRM tools (e.g., HubSpot) to stay organized and inform client conversations.
Success in This Role Looks Like
- Efficient, consistent, and well-documented onboarding and deployment for every new client.
- High client satisfaction and strong retention across the portfolio.
- Clients who feel proactively managed — issues surfaced and resolved before they escalate.
- Growth in service utilization and project expansion within existing accounts.
- Clean account records, health metrics, and QBR materials that strengthen Sentant’s overall Client Success motion.
