Senior Account Manager

The Cornerstone Senior Account Manager, Strategic Accounts owns the overall relationship and revenue growth within a book of Cornerstone's largest, most complex enterprise clients. This is a quota-carrying role with a blended mandate: 85% expansion within the existing client base and 15% net-new logo acquisition . The Account Manager pairs deep account stewardship with an active hunting mindset — proactively identifying and closing new opportunities within their accounts, not just managing renewals.

Maintain account intelligence — org charts, sponsor mapping, competitive landscape, renewal timing — to inform strategy and forecasting. Travel as needed for in-person executive engagement, including QBRs, briefings, and on-site strategy sessions. You've got what it takes if you have… 5+ years in strategic account management or enterprise sales, with a quota track record spanning both expansion and new business.
