Client Services Manager

Overview & What We Do

Apex Leaders custom-recruits industry experts for our private equity firm clients. Through a bespoke process, we research, vet, and connect our clients with the most relevant, skilled advisors so that they can quickly and confidently navigate investment opportunities.

If you are motivated, professional, and intellectually curious, we invite you to apply for our full-time Client Services Manager role!

PLEASE NOTE: This is a proactive posting. We are vetting top talent now for anticipated hires in the coming 3-6 months.

We are open to this position being based at our headquarters in Boise, ID and can split time working in the office and working remotely, or can be based remotely out of one of the following states: Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, New York, New Jersey, Texas, Florida, or Nebraska. The Client Services Manager will report directly to the Director of Client Services and be a member of our Operations team.  

Apex Leaders is an equal-opportunity employer, and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. If you’re a passionate team player who wants to have an impact on a diverse and dynamic team, we’d love to hear from you!
 

Our Culture

At Apex Leaders, you are surrounded by collaborative, tenacious teammates who push each other to overcome obstacles, test the status quo, and achieve success every single day. We hire people who work hard and challenge themselves while also having fun along the way.

Our team is dedicated to creating a working environment where employees can grow and thrive. And we pride ourselves on creating an atmosphere that embodies our core values of Win-Win-Win, Talk to Each Other, Make Change, Give a Damn, and Team First, Always. 
 

The Opportunity & Our Growth Roadmap

We’re being proactive. We anticipate needing a new Client Services Manager in the coming months as our client list expands. We’d rather meet you now and take our time getting to know you than scramble to hire someone in a panic later. This posting is for our “future hires” pipeline. If you need an immediate paycheck, the timing here might not work—but if you’re interested in a long-term fit and want to get the vetting out of the way now, we’d love to talk.
 

What We’re Looking For

The Client Services Manager is an integral part of the Operations team. The mission of this role is to match our private equity clients with precise-fit industry experts so they can quickly and confidently navigate investment opportunities. 

The Client Services Manager serves as the main project lead between Apex Leaders and our clients, managing the full project lifecycle from a consultative exploration of the project goals and objectives for the client to initial research to final introduction with industry leaders. In this role, a “project” is to support a client’s prospective deal or industry research by identifying and vetting the exact industry expertise they need. You are responsible for translating client objectives into specific advisor criteria, sourcing and interviewing high-level advisors to ensure a precise fit, and facilitating the introductions that drive our clients' investment decisions.

In addition, this role works closely with various members of the team to support ongoing company initiatives that accelerate the growth of Apex Leaders. This includes proactively exploring and implementing AI-powered solutions to enhance our services and operations.
