Want to help people get the most out of your products? You should be an Account Manage.
Account Managers act as the first point of contact at a company for their clients, ensuring that they always receive the best service possible.
They’re usually found working within the sales or marketing department, and may be dedicated to a single account, or look after several as part of a portfolio. It all depends on the size of the client in question. And, by size, we mostly mean demand.
Typical duties for an Account Manager could include:
- Liaising with clients’ and identifying their needs
- Putting together proposals to suit their requirements
- Chasing up client requests
- Keeping clients updated on new business or product developments
- Managing budgets and payments
- Dealing with any issues or complaints from clients
Get qualified
Many Account Managers vacancies are advertised as graduate positions. However, it’s more than possible to break into the industry without a degree, and previous sales or account management experience or qualifications will help you get started in the industry.
