- You’ll also be proactive in staying curious and learning everything about this complex industry, helping to guide your clients with insights that add value to their business.
If you're passionate about personal and professional development, continuous improvement and client success, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!
Key Responsibilities
- Manage your own portfolio of clients, ensuring high‑quality, consultative service and retention.
- Engage with clients to understand their needs, offering tailored solutions and context on industry challenges.
- Hold internal teams accountable to meet client expectations.
- Maintain strong, proactive communication and work cross‑functionally to ensure smooth delivery.
- Stay up‑to‑date with industry trends, continually developing your knowledge.
What You’ll Bring
- Previous account management experience and a proven track record in managing your own portfolio of medium to large enterprise clients.
- Demonstrable experience exceeding client expectations, providing a world‑class customer service and driving client retention.
- Strong ability to hold consultative conversations with clients.
- Empathy, with the ability to hold difficult conversations to achieve a desired outcome.
- Self‑awareness, with an inquisitive, ‘learn‑it all’ mindset.
- A passion for self‑development and continuous improvement.
- A genuine interest in sustainability and energy management.
Why Us
- Competitive salary (£28,000 - £31,500 DOE) – £28,000 for those new to the industry with clear progression pathways.
- Hybrid working (Leicester‑based with 2 days per week in office).
- Clear career progression, with multiple career pathways (this role opens a number of doors across the industry).
- Supportive environment with a focus on career development.
