Job description

Who are we?
At Leadership Connect, we believe that relationships are everything in business and in life. Founded by two former CEOs of S&P 500 companies and a former presidential press secretary, our premier information service is built for developing relationships that impact decisions in government, business, and media. Utilizing deep research expertise and cutting-edge technology, we help our clients win business and influence policy across various specialties and verticals. We are a close-knit team dedicated to helping each of our users make a difference.

Core Functions of the Role:

  • Manage an assigned book of business, serving as the primary point of contact for client relationships across end users and executive decision-makers

  • Conduct executive-level conversations to present business-relevant solutions, articulate product value, and address competitive considerations

  • Build and execute strategic account plans in collaboration with client success team members

  • Research client industries and business priorities to develop a working understanding of their challenges and identify where Leadership Connect can add value

  • Lead discovery conversations to understand how clients work day-to-day, uncover friction points in their workflows, and identify gaps where Leadership Connect can meaningfully improve speed, accuracy, or outcomes

  • Connect client challenges directly to product solutions, articulating how specific features and capabilities address the problems surfaced during discovery

  • Lead renewal and retention efforts by clearly communicating the value delivered and embedding Leadership Connect solutions into client workflows

  • Identify and pursue expansion opportunities within existing accounts through consultative discovery and solution alignment

About You:

  • Demonstrated ability to manage and grow a book of business, with experience in renewals, expansion, and consultative client engagement

  • Strong discovery skills — able to ask the right questions, understand how clients work, and identify challenges that aren't always explicitly stated

  • Comfortable leading conversations with senior and executive-level stakeholders

  • Intellectually curious, with a genuine interest in understanding client industries, business priorities, and relationship development strategies

  • Able to connect client challenges to specific product solutions in a clear and credible way

  • Effective written and verbal communicator across client-facing and internal contexts

  • Organized and able to manage multiple client relationships and priorities simultaneously

  • Proficient with CRM systems; Salesforce experience a plus

  • Collaborative by nature — works effectively with client success, product, and internal teams to deliver for clients

What is it like to work here?
We foster an environment that encourages all our team members to excel by offering competitive compensation for top talent. We believe in creating a friendly and enjoyable workplace, with regular team-building events, happy hours, and more. Transparency is key within our company, and we hold weekly town halls led by our CEO to address questions regarding business plans, product direction, and company goals. In addition, we provide flexible PTO policies to ensure you can enjoy your time outside the office and focus on your personal life.
