Who this fits
This role suits someone who enjoys managing partner relationships, working carefully with account and usage data, and handling several requests at once. You’ll support distribution partners rather than direct end clients, and work with the Partnerships lead on larger accounts. The role is remote and calls for both independent follow-through and close collaboration.
From the employer
The Client Success Manager, Partnerships supports our network of distribution partners within the financial services sector, including resellers, data vendors, and platform providers.
