  • Performance Reporting: Own and report on the team’s account pipeline, maintaining an accurate, up-to-date view of portfolio health. Communicate key data, including upsell opportunities and at-risk accounts, with the Head of Schools. Use CRM platforms to manage data across your own portfolio - tracking engagement quality, identifying schools that need additional support and taking action early to protect relationships.
  • Commercial Strategy: Work closely with the Head of Schools to develop and refine the AM strategy. This will include improving portfolio pipelining, engagement strategy and renewal roadmaps. Feed into wider business planning by working with Business Development, Marketing & Product teams to provide the school partnerships perspective on product development, marketing campaigns and pricing decisions.
