Account Manager

This role is to ensure the Flightscape team succeed in our strategic objective of selling and managing customer relationships across the organisation (flight & crew planning, tracking for operators and roster and flight management tools for pilots and crew). These solutions are mission critical for airlines to operation and manage operations and costs.

The purpose of this role is to oversee the customer success and satisfaction for several of our airline customers in Australasia (including but not limited to, Australia, New Zealand, South Pacific and south Asia) and to be the day-to-day point of contact for Flightscape to expand the footprint and grow services sales and revenue opportunities.

In this role you will take a strategic approach to manage multi-level relationships – creating a mutual action plan oriented to customer success objectives, acting as a trusted advisor in the alignment of business challenges to our solution value, acting as a trusted partner to guide our customers to get the most from the partnership, and providing an escalation point for our customer success team.

You will leverage your experience in value-oriented sales frameworks and key existing relationships to ensure that we meet our revenue targets from these accounts whilst providing the highest level of service. You will interface with stakeholders at a variety of levels spanning airline executives to department leaders and functional managers. You will also efficiently complete account management processes including annual briefings, quarterly health checks, monthly steering committee meetings and any proposals/statements of work required to interface with our commercial and R&D teams.
