Senior Account Manager

Swiftly is on a mission to help cities move more efficiently. We are the leading transit data platform for agencies to share real-time passenger information, manage day-to-day operations, and improve service performance. Today, over 200 transit agencies in 12 countries – including LA Metro, MARTA, SEPTA, and MBTA – rely on Swiftly to improve on-time performance by up to 40% and increase passenger information accuracy by up to 50%. The result is better service reliability, increased ridership, and more efficient transit operations.

The Account Management team is part of the Customer Success organization at Swiftly and engages with our customers to understand their core challenges and act as a partner in creating the solution. The Account Management team has two north star objectives: retain our customers’ business and grow opportunities within the customer base. The team cares deeply about the problem we’re solving, so we empathize with and listen to our customers to build partnerships and deepen our value proposition. 

We thrive with constraints, getting creative to execute on a variety of deliverables in collaboration with other teams. Lastly, while we love to win, we know that the best means to that end on a broad scale is to support our colleagues and win as a team. The Account Management team is guided by Swiftly values – team, communication, feedback, growth, diversity, impact – and often combines several values to solve problems and deliver value to our customers.

The Senior Account Managers own the commercial aspects of renewals along with the end-to-end sales cycle for upsells in our existing mid-sized to large strategic customers. They are responsible for working closely with Solutions Engineering, Technical Support, Marketing, Partnerships, and Product teams to increase the ‘stickiness’ of Swiftly amongst our customers. AMs help ensure our customers find continued success and measured value in their partnership with Swiftly by expanding their product portfolio. 

Account Managers own their own territory of existing customers and are responsible for retention, lead generation for upsell and cross-sell opportunities, and increasing revenue from the customer base. Swiftly has aggressive upsell goals, and we are looking for dedicated professionals who can empathize with the needs of mid-sized to large complex agencies and are committed to the success of the transit industry.

Travel note: Swiftly employees can generally expect to travel 1–2 times a year for in-person company or team offsites. As a fully distributed company, we consider these offsites important for cultivating strong relationships across our teams! Attending these in-person is expected and encouraged, although we understand everyone has different personal circumstances and we will consider requests for exceptions. Customer-facing team members and other specific roles may be expected to travel more frequently.
