Client Engagement Specialist

Client Engagement Specialist | Connecticut

Be the day-to-day client contact for a cutting-edge technology company working with a major government client.

Woods & Co is proud to be partnering with a global technology company with offices across Australia, the US, the UK, and New Zealand, in their search for an Associate Account Manager / Customer Success Manager to support their Connecticut government program. Since 2018, this organization has been developing world-leading imaging and AI technology to reduce road fatalities and injuries caused by distracted driving, and this brand-new role in their US structure is central to keeping that mission on track for one of their most important public sector clients.

This is a full-time, salaried position based in Connecticut (or within around an hour of East Hartford — the Boston and New York areas work too), reporting to the Account Manager.
