About the Role
We’re looking for a commercially driven and people-focused Client Services Manager to lead one of our UK client-account squads.
This is a true player-coach leadership role – you’ll inspire, develop and guide a team of Senior Account Managers, Account Managers, and future Associate Account Managers, while owning the squad’s overall performance across retention (NDR) and cross-sell growth.
You won’t carry your own portfolio. Instead, your success will be defined by how effectively your team performs, grows, and delivers for clients.
What You’ll Be Doing
Lead and Grow Your Squad
- Own your squad’s Net Dollar Retention (NDR) and cross-sell performance
- Build a high-performing, commercially focused team culture
- Set the standard for client engagement, service excellence, and delivery
- Coach and develop team members at all levels, supporting clear progression pathways
Drive Retention & Growth
- Protect and grow client relationships, with a strong focus on retention-first strategy
- Enable the team to identify and progress cross-sell opportunities naturally
- Maintain clear visibility of pipeline, conversion rates, and incremental revenue
- Proactively manage at-risk accounts and mitigate churn early
Coach & Develop Talent
- Deliver structured coaching, performance management, and career development
- Support Associate Account Managers progressing to Account Manager level
- Embed a solution-led, relationship-based approach to account management
Own Commercial Performance
- Track and manage performance against targets, taking action where needed
- Ensure the squad consistently exceeds the ≥92% retention gate
- Provide insights into risks and opportunities for wider business planning
Run an Effective Operating Rhythm
- Lead account planning, pipeline reviews, and service delivery cadence
- Oversee allocation of lower-tier accounts (XS-tier) across the squad
- Ensure consistency in service quality, communication, and client experience
Collaborate Across the Business
- Work closely with Sales, Marketing, Finance, Compliance, and Operations
- Partner with Key Account Managers within your industry pillar
- Act as a confident, independent stakeholder representing your clients and team
- Support and deputise for the Group Client Services Director where required
What Success Looks Like
- Consistent achievement of NDR and cross-sell targets
- Strong client retention and proactive risk management
- A high-performing, engaged, and stable team
- Clear development pathways across all team levels
- Trusted relationships with senior stakeholders across the business
What We’re Looking For
Essential
- Proven experience leading account management or client service teams
- Strong track record of client retention and revenue growth
- Demonstrated ability to coach and develop high-performing teams
- Commercially astute, balancing retention and growth priorities
- Confident in managing complex client relationships and at-risk accounts
- Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
- A player-coach mindset — leading through others without owning a portfolio
Desirable
- Experience leading teams through organisational or compensation changes
- Background in solution-led, relationship-based account management
- Experience managing pooled or lower-complexity account segments
- Familiarity with CRM and pipeline management tools
