Lead Technical Account Manager at Ben, enhancing customer outcomes through enterprise technical account management. Driving team performance and bridging client needs with product development in B2B SaaS.
Responsibilities
Lead, coach, and develop a team of 4-5 Technical Account Managers - setting clear expectations, running regular 1:1s, and creating development plans that prepare them for increasing enterprise complexity.
Define the operational infrastructure: playbooks, escalation workflows, coverage models, handoff processes with Customer Success, and enablement materials that allow the team to scale effectively.
Own a portfolio of complex, strategic accounts - serving as their technical advisor for ongoing optimisation and critical issues.
Act as the ultimate escalation point for the team's most challenging technical problems, partnering directly with Product, Engineering, and Operations to resolve critical customer issues.
Be the primary conduit between customers and product development - synthesise technical feedback, identify patterns across accounts, and advocate for features and fixes that matter most to enterprise customers.
Establish key performance metrics (SLAs, CSAT, NPS, escalation trends) and use them to drive continuous improvement across the function.
Lead post-mortems and root cause analyses, turning individual customer issues into systemic product and process improvements.
Collaborate with Customer Success, Support, Product, and Engineering leadership to clarify boundaries, streamline processes, and strengthen feedback loops.
Represent the customer voice in product planning and strategic conversations - your insights should directly influence what gets built and when.
Model what great TAM work looks like through your own customer engagements.
Requirements
Have strong experience managing technical account management, customer success engineering, support engineering, or similar customer-facing technical teams.
Possess a solid technical background in B2B SaaS - comfortable with implementation, integrations, platform operations, and complex troubleshooting.
Have built or scaled operational frameworks for technical teams, especially in defining function scope, service boundaries, and cross-team workflows.
Can balance leadership responsibilities with hands-on IC work - comfortable being both strategist and practitioner.
Excel at cross-functional collaboration and stakeholder management - able to influence product and engineering teams with customer evidence and clear prioritisation.
Are data-driven with experience managing operational metrics and using them to drive team performance.
Thrive in ambiguity and genuinely enjoy building structure and clarity where none exists.
