Role Overview
As a Key Account Manager, you will own and grow a portfolio of around 100+ clients. Your clients are fast-growing scale-ups, SaaS companies, and established Mid Market to small Enterprise organizations across sectors including tech, fintech, retail, healthcare, and professional services.
This is a highly commercial and strategic account management role. Your mission is to renew, grow and secure your portfolio by leading upsell, win back, and expansion opportunities, while managing complex sales cycles, multi-stakeholder environments, and challenging commercial conversations. You will work in close partnership with a Customer Success Manager, forming a duo on your portfolio to drive both commercial growth and long-term client success.
Scope & Responsibilities
As a Key Account Manager, you will be responsible for:
Managing and growing a portfolio of around 100+ existing clients
Driving ARR and NRR growth across your portfolio through upsell, win back, and expansion
Identifying and closing upsell and cross-sell opportunities within existing accounts
Re-engaging former clients, understanding churn reasons, rebuilding the value case, and winning them back
Expanding existing accounts into new subsidiaries, entities, or decision-making scopes
Securing renewals and reducing churn by proactively identifying risks and leading recovery plans when needed
Leading complex sales cycles and negotiations involving multiple stakeholders, buying committees, and senior decision-makers
Managing difficult commercial conversations, whether a client is unhappy, at risk of churning, or pushing back on pricing
Navigating tripartite relationships when relevant, including with HR Media agencies acting as intermediaries between clients and Welcome to the Jungle
Acting as a trusted advisor to help clients maximize the value of Welcome to the Jungle’s solutions
Partnering with internal teams to deliver a strong client experience and long-term business impact
Maintaining strong commercial discipline through rigorous pipeline management, forecasting, and CRM hygiene
Contributing to team excellence by sharing feedback, best practices, and ideas to improve processes and execution
Continuously strengthening your HR expertise to become a trusted advisor on hiring trends and talent market challenges
You likely have between 5 and 8 years of total experience, including at least 3 years in an Account Manager or Key Account Manager role. A previous Account Executive background is a strong plus. You have worked on Mid Market accounts or above, ideally in SaaS, and are comfortable operating in commercial environments that require strategic account thinking rather than transactional sales.
To thrive in this role, you bring both the mindset and the execution skills of a strong commercial KAM:
You know how to grow a portfolio through upsell, expansion, and retention
You are comfortable with complex sales cycles, senior stakeholders, and multi-layered account strategies
You are confident in negotiation and in handling challenging client conversations
You have a track record of high performance and a strong appetite for results
You are entrepreneurial, proactive, and eager to create opportunities
You adapt well in fast-changing environments and stay effective when priorities evolve
You welcome feedback and use it to raise your level
You bring positive energy, ambition, and strong team spirit
The compensation package is structured with 75% fixed salary and 25% variable*, based on seniority and performance.*
Nous passons beaucoup de temps au travail. En moyenne et en cumulé, nous passons 13 ans de notre vie à travailler, 15 pour ceux qui enchaînent les heures sup’. Et au rythme moyen d’un nouveau poste tous les 5 ans, ça fait 12 changements au cours d’une vie. Nous consacrons beaucoup de temps et d'efforts au travail. Mais notre lien avec lui s’est détérioré. Notre vie tourne autour de la routine du 9h-18h, du lundi au vendredi. Nous vantons les mérites des soirées passées à travailler tard et nous ne nous déconnectons jamais. Puisque nous n’avons pas notre mot à dire sur son organisation, nous adoptons nos vies à notre travail. Et lorsque les entreprises ne prennent pas la mesure de notre investissement, nous changeons de job dans l'espoir qu'ailleurs notre temps sera mieux valorisé. Nous donnons à chacun une perception plus vivante des personnes avec qui ils pourraient travailler, pour les aider à avancer dans la bonne direction lors des phases de transition professionnelle. Nous offrons aux chercheurs d’emploi et aux professionnels RH une combinaison unique d’outils de recrutement et d’une plateforme d’emploi pour rendre les transitions professionnelles centrées sur l’humain. Pour que notre vie ne se résume pas à des e-mails, des présentations et des visios. Et pour que nous ayons plus de temps pour faire ce que nous voulons, voire ne rien faire du tout. Pour que notre travail s'aligne avec qui nous sommes, comment nous vivons et aimons faire les choses, et que nous ayons plus de contrôle sur notre quotidien. Parce que cela nous rend plus productifs, et surtout plus heureux. Pour que les entreprises investissent dans notre développement et notre épanouissement à long terme, participant ainsi à créer des citoyens plus accomplis et une planète plus saine. Pour que le travail devienne une récompense, et ne soit plus une punition.
