About the role
Job Summary
Senior Account Manager - eProduct Renewals
Are you a strategic renewals professional who excels at navigating complex negotiations and building trusted executive relationships
Do you enjoy turning customer value into long-term partnerships while influencing commercial strategy and mentoring others
This role owns the most commercially complex and highest-value accounts in the region. Where an Account Manager runs a defined renewal book, a Senior Account Manager carries the accounts where the outcome is not predictable: multi-site consortia, public tenders, competitive displacement attempts, contract restructurings, and accounts where the economic buyer has changed and the relationship has to be rebuilt from scratch.
You will negotiate independently up to defined commercial thresholds, own the escalation strategy on at-risk revenue rather than handing it upward, and shape how the wider team approaches renewals through playbook contribution and deal coaching. You are the commercial lead; the Customer Success Manager owns adoption and value realization, and you convert that evidence into price and term.
This is a senior individual contributor role with peer-leadership expectations. It does not carry direct reports.
