Job description

About the Role

Behavox's Strategic Account Managers own the full commercial relationship with some of the world's most complex and highly regulated financial institutions. This includes delivery outcomes, commercial performance, executive relationships, and long-term strategic growth across a portfolio of global banks, hedge funds, asset managers, and energy firms operating under the world's most demanding regulatory frameworks.

Clients in this portfolio are building or strengthening unified controls frameworks that bring together communications surveillance, trade surveillance, compliant archiving, and policy management into a single, defensible control system. The Strategic Account Manager's role is to understand where each client sits on that journey, ensure Behavox is delivering against their current needs, and position the platform to serve the full scope of their controls framework over time. This requires full end-to-end ownership of the relationship, delivery, health, satisfaction, retention, and growth for every account in the portfolio, operating with a high degree of autonomy on account strategy, renewals, escalations, and executive relationships.

The role requires the ability to think strategically and execute operationally, often in the same day. The Strategic Account Manager will own all renewals across the portfolio, build retention strategy, lead negotiations, and close; accurately forecast ARR churn risk and develop mitigation plans; drive inbound expansion deals independently in collaboration with Account Executives; and lead executive business reviews that are genuinely strategic: conversations about compliance posture, regulatory risk, control maturity, and platform value.

What You'll Bring

• Enterprise compliance technology and unified controls frameworks. Deep working knowledge of how communications surveillance, trade surveillance, compliant archiving, and policy management converge into a single control system at regulated financial institutions; understands how clients evaluate and mature their compliance posture over time.
• Financial services regulatory environment. Understands the regulatory obligations driving client demand, from communications monitoring requirements to trade reconstruction and archiving mandates, across global banking, hedge fund, asset management, and energy sectors.
• Multi-stakeholder account management across regulated financial institutions. Navigates complex organizational structures involving Heads of Surveillance, compliance analysts, technology teams, and operations teams; manages both executive-level strategic relationships and working-level practitioner relationships simultaneously.
• Commercial lifecycle management for enterprise SaaS. Owns the full renewal and expansion cycle: retention strategy, churn forecasting, negotiation, close, and pipeline development in partnership with Account Executives; understands how delivery health directly impacts commercial outcomes.
• Escalation management and operational accountability. Owns ticket triage, escalation, and resolution end to end for the full portfolio; manages complex, multi-workstream escalations with minimal manager involvement; builds relationships with Product, Engineering, and Support counterparts to accelerate resolution.

What You'll Do

• Account health monitoring. (content truncated)
