Key Responsibilities

Portfolio & Account Health

• Own portfolio-level account health across assigned covered entity accounts, monitoring retention risk, client satisfaction, and program performance indicators such as 340B capture rate and total booking value (TBV) trends.

• Proactively identify at-risk accounts and intervene ahead of escalation, coordinating with account managers and internal stakeholders on remediation plans.

• Track implementation backlog aging and other cross-functional metrics that affect the client experience, escalating systemic issues to Implementation Services and Technical Operations leadership.

Escalation Management & Client Advocacy

Team Leadership & Development

• Lead, coach, and develop the U.S. Account Management team, setting clear performance expectations and building a bench of account managers capable of handling complex, high-value covered entity relationships.

• Track account manager turnover, ticket responsiveness, and training gaps, and build corrective plans in response to client feedback, including third-party performance benchmarks such as KLAS.

• Build and maintain onboarding and continuing-education programs for account managers to close recurring training and knowledge gaps.

Process & Communication Standards

• Establish and enforce consistent standards for client-facing communication, quarterly business reviews, and account documentation across the team.

• Drive continuous improvement of Account Management processes, tooling, and reporting cadence in partnership with Operational Excellence.

Cross-Functional Partnership & Growth Support

• Demonstrated experience managing escalations and retention for at-risk enterprise or healthcare accounts.

• Strong track record of building team performance standards, coaching frameworks, and measurable improvement in client satisfaction metrics.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to calibrate tone for executive, client, and internal audiences.

• Comfort operating in a remote, distributed team environment across U.S. and international (India-based) colleagues.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in the 340B drug pricing program, pharmacy benefit management, healthcare revenue cycle, or a related healthcare compliance/SaaS domain.
