Job description

Upsell Account Manager (US)

Department: Customer Experience (Account Management & Revenue Expansion)

Reports to: Senior Manager – Account Management, Customer Success & Retention

Role Type: Individual Contributor

Location: Remote (US-Based)

Employment Type: Full-Time

Overview

As we scale, expansion and renewal revenue are strategic pillars of growth. Upsell, cross-sell, and renewals are expected to contribute meaningfully to overall sales efficiency, with upsell targeted to drive ~30% of total sales revenue and support Net Revenue Retention (NRR) above 100%.

We are seeking a highly driven, data-informed, and consultative Upsell Account Manager who will own the commercial lifecycle of existing customers, working in close partnership with Customer Success and Retention teams.

This role owns the post-adoption commercial motion — managing renewals, identifying expansion signals, leading value-based upsell conversations, and closing expansion and renewal deals aligned to real customer outcomes.

Why This Role Matters

In modern SaaS businesses, NRR is driven by two levers:

  • Customers who renew because value is delivered
  • Customers who expand because value grows

This role ensures both happen with discipline and intent.

You Will Be Accountable For
  • Expansion ARR
  • Renewal execution
  • Commercial contribution to keeping NRR above 100%

While Customer Success owns health and value delivery, this role ensures commercial moments are executed cleanly, confidently, and on time.

Key Responsibilities
  • Expansion & Renewal Revenue Ownership
  • Own upsell, cross-sell, and renewal execution across an assigned book of customers
  • Drive expansion motions that contribute ~30% of overall sales revenue
  • Manage renewal timelines, pricing discussions, and contract execution
  • Partner closely with Customer Success and Retention Managers to ensure renewals are aligned to customer health

Expectation: Clear ownership of revenue outcomes without duplicating CS responsibilities.

  • Value-Based Upsell & Commercial Renewal Conversations
  • Lead consultative upsell and renewal discussions grounded in:
    • Product usage and adoption data
    • Customer outcomes and maturity
    • Commercial value and ROI
  • Confidently position renewals and upgrades as continuations of value, not administrative events
  • Manage objections and negotiations professionally and transparently
  • Partnership with Customer Success & Retention
  • Work in lockstep with:
    • Customer Success Managers (health, adoption, value realization)
    • Retention Managers (risk mitigation, save plays)
  • Avoid selling into unhealthy or high-risk accounts without CS alignment
  • Ensure smooth handoffs post-upsell and post-renewal

Guardrail: This role does not own customer health plans or churn saves — it owns the commercial execution.

  • Pipeline, Forecasting & Renewal Discipline
  • Maintain a clean and accurate pipeline covering:
    • Expansion opportunities
    • Upcoming renewals
  • Forecast renewal and expansion ARR with high confidence
  • Track close plans, renewal risks, and commercial blockers
  • Provide visibility into NRR drivers and gaps
  • Insights, Strategy & Process Building
  • Identify patterns across renewals and upsells to inform:
    • Packaging and pricing strategy
    • Expansion triggers
    • Renewal timing and playbooks
  • Help build repeatable renewal + upsell processes as the business scales
Success Metrics (KPIs)
  • Expansion ARR generated
  • Upsell contribution to total sales revenue (target ~30%)
  • Renewal rate across managed accounts
  • Net Revenue Retention (NRR > 100%)
  • Upsell + renewal forecast accuracy
  • Post-renewal and post-upsell customer satisfaction
What Success Looks Like
  • Renewals are predictable, on-time, and value-aligned
  • Expansion revenue is consistent and repeatable
  • NRR remains above 100% quarter over quarter
  • Customers experience renewals as a natural continuation of value
  • CS and Retention teams trust this role to handle the commercial layer
Who Thrives In This Role

This role is ideal for someone who:

  • Is comfortable owning both expansion and renewal revenue
  • Respects Customer Success ownership of relationships and health
  • Is confident leading commercial conversations without being transactional
  • Uses data to drive urgency and decision-making
  • Is accountable, disciplined, and outcome-oriented
  • Thinks in terms of NRR, not just deals
Compensation & Benefits
  • Competitive base salary
  • Quarterly bonus tied to upsell and renewal performance (based on % of revenue generated)
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Direct exposure to leadership on pricing, packaging, and growth strategy

Budget : $63,000-$70,000 (OTE $80,000-$85,000)
