About Rimes
Rimes provides enterprise data management solutions to the global investment community. Driven by our passion for solving the most complex data problems, we provide our clients with investment intelligence that powers more than US$75 trillion in assets under management annually. The world’s leading institutional investors, asset managers and service providers rely on Rimes to help them make better investment decisions using accurate information and industry-leading technology.
The Role
The Client Executive owns Rimes' most strategic client relationships in North America - a portfolio of approximately 4-8 of our largest and most complex enterprise accounts. This is not a support role or a service function. You are the commercial owner of these accounts: responsible for retention, renewal, expansion, and ultimately the long-term health of each relationship.
Your clients are institutional - asset managers, allocators, wealth platforms -- and they operate at a level of sophistication that demands more than account management. They expect a partner who understands their business, anticipates their needs, and brings value to every interaction. Relationships are long, contracts are complex, and trust is earned with every engagement.
You will assume responsibility of select accounts from the Sales team and own the relationship from that point forward. Your mandate is to deepen those relationships, drive same-store growth, and ensure Rimes delivers on its commitments - consistently, at the standard our clients expect.
What You'll Own
Account Ownership & Retention

- Deliver reliable renewal and expansion forecasts on a consistent cadence with defensible assumptions.
