About the Role
We are looking for a motivated and results-driven Inside Sales Account Manager to join our growing renewals team. In this role, you will be responsible for managing a portfolio of customer support renewal opportunities across the EMEA region, working closely with customers, channel partners, and internal teams to ensure contracts are successfully renewed and booked.
This is a relationship-focused sales role centred on customer retention, account growth, and support contract renewals rather than traditional new business prospecting. You will leverage Salesforce CRM, Excel, and data-driven insights to effectively manage your territory, maintain an accurate pipeline, and achieve sales targets.
Whether working independently or alongside partners and internal stakeholders, you will play a key role in driving revenue retention, strengthening customer relationships, and delivering an exceptional customer experience.
Key Responsibilities
Manage a portfolio of customer accounts, driving support contract renewals through to successful booking and closure.
Develop and execute account plans for medium to high-complexity accounts in line with defined sales strategies.
Work closely with channel partners, including distributors and resellers, to manage renewal opportunities and support customer retention.
Collaborate with internal stakeholders, including Customer Operations teams, to facilitate quote creation, contract revisions, and booking activities.
Understand customer business requirements and position solutions effectively to address challenges and support retention strategies.
Build and maintain a robust sales pipeline, accurately forecast opportunities, and use data-driven insights to achieve targets.
Maintain accurate opportunity management and forecasting within Salesforce CRM.
Utilise Excel and reporting tools to track renewal activity, manage sales priorities, monitor performance against targets, and identify opportunities for growth.
Establish and maintain strong customer relationships, identifying opportunities for account expansion and long-term growth.
Stay informed about industry trends, competitor activities, and emerging technologies to better support customer needs.
What We're Looking For
Qualifications & Experience
Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience in any discipline, preferably Business, IT, Sales, or a related field.
3 to 5 years of sales, account management, business development, renewals, customer success, or related experience.
Proven track record of achieving sales targets and building strong customer relationships.
Experience within an Inside Sales, Renewals, Customer Success, or Account Management environment.
Experience working with channel partners, distributors, or resellers would be advantageous.
Skills & Knowledge
Strong account management, customer retention, and relationship development skills.
Good understanding of technology solutions, products, and services and their application to business challenges.
Strong relationship-focused sales skills with the ability to manage existing customer accounts and renewal opportunities.
Excellent communication, presentation, negotiation, and influencing skills.
Ability to work collaboratively within a team environment and support or lead smaller project or sales teams when required.
Strong analytical skills with experience managing sales pipelines and forecasting performance.
Proficiency in CRM platforms, particularly Salesforce, with the ability to manage opportunities, forecasts, customer data, and sales activity effectively.
Strong Microsoft Excel skills, including the ability to create and manage spreadsheets, analyse data, track performance, and support forecasting activities.
Experience using reporting and business intelligence tools such as Power BI would be advantageous.
Ability to interpret sales performance metrics and use data to prioritise opportunities and drive results.
Customer-focused mindset with the ability to identify needs and deliver value-driven solutions.
