Pathstream |NYC Hybrid
WHAT WE DO
Pathstream was founded on the premise that substantial unrealized economic and human potential exists within each organization's frontline workforce. We are reshaping the way employees and managers on the frontlines excel in their careers. In this age of rapid tech evolution, our enterprise partnerships transform frontline teams from transactional to relational, and from task-oriented to strategic.
We impact companies' bottom lines with improved productivity, increased retention, and differentiated quality of customer experience — while employees experience greater success in their current roles and unlock future professional growth.
THE ROLE
Pathstream is looking for a Client Partner to own and grow one of our enterprise B2B portfolios consisting of enterprise clients clustered into a single industry or set of industries or functions. This is a high-visibility, matrixed senior-level role that sits at the intersection of consultative selling, strategy, relationship management, analytics, and execution. As a Client Partner, you will be expected to drive revenue growth and product adoption for your portfolio. Reporting to our CRO, you'll own your portfolio of clients , the program outcomes we deliver, the verdict on whether our offerings are genuinely delivering impact, and the overall health and growth of the portfolio.
On a day-to-day basis, you'll direct the portfolio group’s members from customer success, marketing, and operations to drive execution, while working with your product, coaching, learning design, and engineering partners to address the portfolio’s evolving needs. You'll also serve as account lead for one client in your portfolio to stay close to the work and set the performance bar for your team. Lastly, you will manage one customer success leader who oversees day-to-day account management of the remaining clients in the portfolio.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Portfolio Ownership & Growth
Own your portfolio & the metrics — what the clients are buying, which of their business metrics we move, what a winning engagement looks like — and refresh it quarterly
Drive renewals across the portfolio and expansion within each client's division: more users, more geographies, adjacent lines of business under the same executive sponsor
Move clients through proof-of-concept scholarship, paid pilot, and division rollout on a defined timeline; never let an account stall in a stage without a decision
Serve as account lead for one client in your portfolio, held to the same standard as every other account and reported alongside them
Establish and maintain your internal partners’ baseline understanding of the key issues and pressures impacting your industry or set of portfolio companies; stay abreast of public company business & financial performance pertaining to your portfolio of clients; and anticipate trends that could impact their business and how we might help them
Program Performance & Offering Effectiveness
Directly guide your matrixed partners from customer success, marketing, and operations — diagnosing what's driving or inhibiting activations, enrollments, completions, and coaching engagement, and directing team focus accordingly
Track client program performance closely: understand the data, including client performance and attrition data where accessible, to calculate ROI and ensure the team is intervening effectively when metrics need attention
Evaluate and give substantive feedback on user-facing marketing — bringing strong instincts on what drives quality activations, completions, and sustained coaching engagement; hold the bar on campaign strategy, not just execution
Deliver a quarterly verdict per client on whether coaching, curriculum, and user experience are combining to deliver their business objectives and ROI goals — and when they aren't, make the case for what must change so it’s added to the roadmap
Portfolio Leadership
Set the portfolio's operating cadence and agenda, and decide when and how coaching and learning design should participate
Set and uphold the portfolio’s quality bar for client-facing narratives shared at each step of the client journey in all formats (e.g. slide decks, emails, etc)
Manage and develop your customer success lead; set the portfolio’s priorities for your matrixed partners across sales, marketing, coaching, learning design, operations, and data
Make the case for the resources your portfolio’s needs, and translate what's working — and what isn't — into more efficient, scalable operational processes
