Role Overview

We are seeking an Account Manager to support the growth and development of a portfolio of clients across the UK and Ireland. This role will focus on maintaining strong client relationships, supporting ongoing account activity, and identifying opportunities to expand existing partnerships.

This is a hybrid role based in Dublin, requiring regular office attendance (3 days per week) and approximately 20% travel, primarily across the UK.

What makes this role unique is the level of visibility and impact it offers.

You will work closely with senior leadership, including the VP of UK & Ireland and the Head of Sales for EMEA & APAC, and will be directly involved in key stakeholder interactions. This is an opportunity to operate in a lean, high-impact environment where your contribution is visible and valued, rather than being one of many layers within a larger organisation.

The role offers strong exposure to senior stakeholders and cross-functional teams, providing an opportunity to develop commercial and strategic account management skills within a global technology organisation.
