Job Description
We are seeking a Melbourne based Senior Account Manager to lead one of our most strategic wholesale telecommunications accounts. This is a senior, high-impact role for a commercially astute relationship leader who thrives at the intersection of wholesale network services, complex service delivery, and executive stakeholder management.
This role goes beyond traditional account management. You will be a trusted partner to senior customer executives and a credible internal leader, able to orchestrate outcomes across network, operations, product, finance, and external network partner teams.

1. Own and grow a large, high-value strategic wholesale account, focusing on long-term partnership rather than transactional sales
2. Develop and execute a multi-year account roadmap aligned to customer growth, margin, and customer experience strategies
3. Lead executive governance forums and manage C-level stakeholder relationships
4. Navigate wholesale pricing, volume economics, margin pressure, and complex contract structures
5. Anticipate and manage risks arising from network change programs, capacity constraints, and regulatory shifts
6. Lead complex escalations across provisioning, assurance, service classes, and network constraints
7. Align sales, service delivery, product, finance, and operations through influence rather than authority
Qualifications
8. 5–8+ years' proven experience in account management, customer success, or B2B relationship management.
9. Strong commercial acumen with a track record of identifying and closing revenue opportunities.
10. Exceptional analytical and numerical skills to drive informed business decisions.
11. Outstanding communication, negotiation, and presentation skills, able to simplify complex solutions for clients.
12. Experienced in managing strategic accounts and projects in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
13. Proactive problem-solver with a customer-first approach.
14. Skilled in leveraging CRM tools such as Salesforce, HubSpot, or Dynamics to optimize account performance.
Desirable
15. Experience in the relevant industry, such as telecommunications, voice, or data services.
16. Familiarity with customer engagement frameworks or methodologies, including QBRs and customer lifecycle management.
17. Background in technical or operational environments supporting complex customer solutions.
