Doing this job remotely

Client contact happens through scheduled video calls, email, and shared dashboards, so the job is widely offered remote. The manager needs to be available during clients' business hours, which can dictate a working schedule if the book spans time zones. Occasional travel for on-site reviews or conferences may apply, mostly for larger clients.

Where it comes from and where it leads

People move in from customer support, account coordination, implementation, or from working in the client's own industry. They advance to senior or enterprise success manager, team lead, or shift into account management and renewals-focused sales.
