In this role, you'll be expected to collaborate with account executives, identifying new business opportunities to help expand our footprint within each client account.

• Cultivate relationships with users and key stakeholders to ensure AlphaSense is viewed as a business partner rather than vendor
• Hold Business Reviews with key stakeholders
• Consistent proactive outreach with material and information that’s relevant for our user base
• Serve as our boots on the ground and physical presence within each client (floor walks, lunch and learns, etc.)
• Serve as both the advocate for AlphaSense to the client, and the client advocate within AlphaSense
