Head of Account Management

Who We Are:

At K1x, we are revolutionizing the tax software sector with innovative technology that brings clarity, efficiency, and control to intricate K-1 and partnership reporting. Our platform empowers top firms and institutions by streamlining data management, automating compliance processes, and providing insights that enhance client results. As a rapidly growing Series B SaaS company, we have earned the trust of tax and accounting professionals who appreciate accuracy and collaboration. Each team member contributes directly to how clients engage with our technology and services, with our Account Management team being pivotal to this goal.
Role Overview:

This is a leadership role for someone who wants to build and run a high-performing Account Management team. As the Head of Account Management at K1x, you will lead, coach, and develop a team of Account Managers while personally owning a small portfolio of strategic accounts, staying close to the client experience you're asking your team to deliver.

Most of your time will go toward leading the team: setting and holding the team accountable to quota, running regular pipeline, renewal, and forecast calls, and partnering with AMs to identify whitespace and build expansion pipeline across their books. You'll also coach the team on renewal strategy, growth conversations, and building strong sponsor relationships, while facilitating Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) for your own accounts and working closely with Product, Support, and Finance to ensure clients realize full value from K1x.

This role is ideal for someone who has carried an Account Management quota themselves and now wants to multiply that impact through others - a leader who is comfortable setting targets, coaching through pipeline reviews, and being accountable for team-wide renewal and growth outcomes in a fast-paced, startup-minded environment.
