Senior Strategic Account Manager - Agency / Manage Existing Clients

Senior Strategic Account Manager – Agency / Manage Existing Clients

Bowman Williams is a niche permanent-placement staffing firm focused exclusively on the IT Cloud and Managed Service Provider industry.

For more than 16 years, we've worked in one market and built deep relationships within it. Today, we partner with more than 1,000 MSP clients across seven U.S. cities, generate more than 70% repeat business every year, and have been recognized by Forbes as one of America's Best Staffing Firms.

You are not building a desk from scratch, you will not cold call into a market you don't know and you will not wait for applicants to come in. You step into an established client base, you work directly with CEOs and you are being plugged into a recruiting model built around proactive recruiting and efficiency.

We are looking for a Senior Account Manager with agency experience.

Why People Stay

We've built the company so that each seat is empowered to make placements efficiently as possible. We cut out the red tape. We double down on automation and our culture is highly collaborative.

Being niche allows us to remove the "red tape" that often slows down experienced account managers. For example, we proactively recruit and leverage speed to market, we position ourselves as thought leaders in our industry, we work directly with CEOs (not HR) and we automate most repetitive follow-ups and administrative tasks so that Account Managers can spend more making placements closing deals.

Our average employee tenure is more than five years. Every job offer we extend includes guaranteed compensation increase at the start of Years 2 and 3. You will have a clear financial and career path as you grow with the company.

We take a two-hour lunch every day and offer unlimited PTO.

Senior Account Manager Responsibilities – we're looking for agency experience.

• Manage 8–12 active job orders at a time. We recruit proactively which means we are continuously interviewing candidates and building pipelines for the same positions in the same cities. You are not responsible for sourcing. Recruiters bring qualified candidates to you.
• Manage a book of 20–40 MSP clients. Most already have years of hiring history with Bowman Williams, so you are inheriting established relationships rather than starting from scratch. You'll work directly with CEOs and you will position yourself as a staffing partner who understands their industry and business model well enough to help them scale.
• KPIs and Expectations. Our company averages a 40% close rate. Account Manager will typically average 3 submittals, confirm 3 interviews and make a placement within 22 days. Account Managers are responsible for owning the client communication.
