Key Account Executive

We're looking for a detail-obsessed account orchestrator who thrives on managing high-value, complex B2B deals from execution through delivery.

The Key Account Executive will be assigned some of the most important accounts for the company. The focus will be to evolve the relationship with our key customers as well as identify new opportunities for growth.

• You're energized by keeping complex systems running smoothly

• High level communication and strategy with clients and internal leaders, while setting the correct expectations for the next steps and fulfillment.
• Analyze data to track key account performance, identify trends, and develop actionable insights for strategic decision-making.
• Exceptional execution to manage intricate internal workflows and complex deals, owning every detail including timelines, SKU variations, and fulfillment across multiple concurrent projects

• Uncover customer needs and present the proper solution by demonstrating knowledge of Sportiqe’s products and value propositions.
• Remain composed and adaptable as orders change or timelines shift without losing track of details. You thrive on being steady when everything else is moving.
• High-touch client management - You'll manage their expectations, solve problems proactively, and ensure every order — from initial design concepts through final delivery — exceeds their bar.
• You will continuously learn and contribute to a winning team where we are all in it together.

In addition to working with high end, enterprise clients on the front end of concept and design; at Sportiqe we offer a community of awesome people who are all committed to the same goal, work collaboratively, and have fun.
