About the role

  • Enterprise Account Director managing strategic customer accounts and driving automation solutions for growth at Parabola. Collaborating closely with engineering for maximum value creation.

Responsibilities

  • Account Planning: Own the strategy for each account including current health status, path to next stage, whitespace mapping, and expansion potential. You'll work with department leads to identify blockers, reengage users for the Growth Automation Engineer to help drive utilization, and you'll surface new functional use cases and opportunities for growth. You'll evaluate how to more deeply engage with customers including a strategy for what can be automated and what should remain human.
  • Commercial Strategy & Execution: Own the renewal, expansion strategy and execution for your book of accounts. Accurately forecast retention and expansion on a weekly basis for the month and next two quarters.
  • Executive QBRs: Drive alignment with leadership on ROI, consistently realigning on their top initiatives and how they translate to Parabola mandates.
  • New Function Expansion: Leverage your whitespacing map to break into new functions and teams. Cross-sell to new teams within our book of business by leading dialed discovery calls and demos with key stakeholders and end users, pitching relevant use cases that drive quantifiable business outcomes to drive expansion. You’ll lead those intro calls and hand off scoping and co-building to Automation Engineering.
  • Partnership with Automation Engineering: You have a kick-a** partner here. A core part of your role will be to nurture an effective partnership with your Automation Engineering counterparts. This person will own the hands-on-keyboard work (office hours, build support, new product release introductions).
  • Voice of the Customer: You will represent our strategic customer needs and product requirements to our product and engineering team
