The Role
Showbie is looking for an experienced Senior Account Manager - EdTech SaaS Sales to drive customer retention, expansion, and recurring revenue growth across our existing customer base.
This is a remote role based in the United Kingdom, with occasional travel required for customer meetings, team days, or business needs.
This is a commercial sales role with responsibility for ARR, Net Revenue Retention (NRR), renewals, upsell, expansion, and accurate revenue forecasting.

You will work with a diverse range of customers, including Multi-Academy Trusts, districts, and schools of all sizes, from SMB to Enterprise, both in the UK and globally.
You will need to be confident engaging with senior and C-level stakeholders within the EdTech sector, including leading customer meetings independently.
