• Know all key stakeholders at your customer accounts, maintain active relationships with each, and engage regularly as relevant to the account’s business priorities.
• Escalate internal roadblocks that impact delivery or customer experience through the win‑room format, and bring forward constructive suggestions on customer engagement to key executive stakeholders.

Collaboration & delivery coordination

• Coordinate internal stakeholders to maintain alignment on account plan, priorities and ensure proactive issue resolution.
• Work closely with CX, Service, and other teams to deliver on SLAs and ensure a seamless customer experience.
