Job description

Built on service. Powered by people.

Impact was built differently: invest in great people, trust them to do great work, and deliver the kind of service clients remember. That approach helped us grow from a small office technology company into a national managed services provider, while remaining privately owned and people-first.

What makes Impact special is that growth has never come at the expense of the values that got us here. We continue to reinvest in our people, our capabilities, and the opportunities ahead so employees can grow alongside the business. We’ve built something special, but we’re far from finished. The people who join Impact now will help define what comes next.

Job Overview

The Technical Account Manager (TAM) serves as a trusted technical advisor and governance partner for assigned managed services clients. This role provides proactive technical oversight by assessing client environments against standards, identifying risk and lifecycle exposure, and translating findings into clear, actionable recommendations. The TAM partners closely with internal delivery teams and customer stakeholders to ensure environments are stable, supportable, and aligned with best practices. This position is focused on strategic technical visibility and planning rather than day‑to‑day ticket execution.
