Right now, we build software that helps organisations create accessible, fast, high-quality websites. Our customers include Fortune 500 companies, universities, local and state government agencies, and so much more.

We’re looking for a commercially ambitious Account Manager to help grow Silktide’s existing customer base. You’ll identify where our expanding range of products can solve real customer problems, then own those opportunities from the first conversation through to close. This is a proactive, consultative role for someone who wants to grow accounts by creating genuine value.

- Consultative selling: Understand what customers are trying to achieve, uncover their challenges and priorities, and recommend the right solutions to help them get closer to their objectives.

- Commercial ownership: Own opportunities through the commercial process, from identifying a strong fit through to proposal, negotiation, and close.

- Account development: Work closely with Customer Success Managers to understand each customer, map key stakeholders and teams, and identify where there may be opportunities to grow the relationship.
