Job description

Overview

As the Director, Relationship Management, you are more than a team leader — you are a regional growth owner. You’ll shape strategy, drive growth, and inspire performance across a high-impact team of Veterinary Relationship Managers (VRMs) focused on clinics with low to mid-level adoption of Covetrus solutions. Your mission: transform these accounts into loyal, thriving customers by deepening relationships, expanding solution usage, and delivering measurable value.

You’ll lead with data, insight, and heart — combining commercial discipline with a customer-first mindset. This is a dynamic, remote-based leadership role that blends consultative sales, business development, and virtual team management in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.

We are only looking for candidates located within Washington, Idaho, OR Montana

• Conduct skill-based 1:1s, structured deal reviews, and proactive coaching sessions tailored to each VRM’s growth path.
• Address underperformance swiftly while celebrating and scaling success.

Customer Engagement & Growth

• Drive full-cycle relationship management—from onboarding and education to optimization, cross-sell, and renewal.
• Oversee execution of VetSuite lead handoffs and account collaboration with Account Executives via Salesforce.
• Identify and resolve friction points in the customer journey before they impact satisfaction or retention.

Talent Development & Culture Building

• Reward excellence and address low performance with urgency and compassion.

Cross-Functional Execution

• Collaborate with Product, Marketing, Enablement, and Customer Success to align field strategy with GTM priorities.
