• · Partner with Research teams to shape high-impact client engagement agendas and ensure client priorities are reflected in internal planning, service delivery, and product feedback.
• · Manage the overall client partnership across assigned organizations, including executive check-ins, value reviews, renewal preparation, stakeholder training, account research, and the development of actionable service and growth strategies.
• · Lead renewal negotiations with confidence, fairness, and commercial judgment, structuring mutually beneficial agreements that support long-term partnerships and achievement of retention targets.
• · Continuously identify ways to increase client value by driving deeper utilization of existing resources, connecting client objectives to Euromonitor capabilities, and reinforcing the impact of the partnership.
• · Demonstrated track record of setting, owning, and exceeding ambitious commercial and client engagement goals.
• · High intellectual curiosity, commercial acumen, and a growth mindset, with the ability to uncover strategic client needs and translate them into actionable opportunities.

· Successful experience in sales, account management, client engagement, or a related commercial role, with evidence of sustained performance and increasing responsibility.

· Consistently goal-oriented and accountable for results, with a history of performing at or above target in commercially driven environments.

· Resilient, proactive, and solutions-oriented, with the confidence to challenge assumptions, navigate complex client situations, and pursue opportunities with disciplined urgency.

· Confident in engaging senior executives and cross-functional stakeholders, adapting communication style to influence decision-makers across levels, functions, and geographies.

· Highly organized and disciplined in managing complex stakeholder networks, follow-up cadences, scheduling priorities, and multiple concurrent account initiatives.

· International perspective and cultural fluency, with the ability to engage effectively with clients and colleagues across regions and markets.
