We are looking for an experienced Technical Account Manager to take ownership of the complete client journey, from initial discovery and solution design to deal closure and successful project delivery. In this techno-commercial role, you will combine technical expertise, consultative sales, and relationship management to understand client needs and translate them into tailored software solutions.

Monitor project progress to ensure deliverables meet agreed requirements, quality standards, and timelines through final client approval. Account Growth and Relationship Management: Identify opportunities for upselling and cross-selling additional services, including new software modules, maintenance and support, cloud solutions, quality assurance, and dedicated development teams. Develop trusted, long-term client relationships that encourage repeat business, referrals, and positive testimonials.
