- Own all client-facing status communication, from weekly detail to executive summary, translating engineering and product progress into business terms.
- Keep ownership of every open item unambiguous, internally and with the client.
- With our existing clients: Own coverage for several existing clients: build and grow relationships across a portfolio of banks and fintechs.
- Run the operating cadence for each account: QBRs, roadmap check-ins, prioritization sessions.
- Track portfolio health (KPIs, adoption, satisfaction, support/escalation trends) and turn it into a clear read-out for internal teams and clients.
- Lead post-incident or post-issue reviews with clients, translating technical root cause into a business-appropriate explanation and forward-looking action plan.
What You’ll Bring
- Proven ability to build and deepen client trust & relationships in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment.
- Strong track record of building operating rhythms with clear accountability in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
- Exceptionally strong written & verbal communication skills, ability to communicate in a structured, succinct, executive ready way.
- Comfortable working through day-to-day delivery blockers and communicating status and risk to executive and board-level audiences.
- Strong analytical and critical thinking, with a data-driven decision-making approach.
- Highly self-motivated, adaptable, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, execution-focused environment.
- Experience managing credit card or lending portfolios at a bank, issuer, or fintech.
