We're hiring an Account Manager to own relationships with our members — keeping them engaged, helping them get more value over time, and turning first-time users into long-term, growing accounts. Summary Flexible Title: Can tailor to reflect your skills & experience.Flexible Time: Can do full-time, part-time, side-gig (off-hours), or fractional (contract).Flexible Commitment: Can do short-term, long-term, or intermittent. Why so flexible? We're a FUNDED startup racing to launch end of Q3 2026. That gives us just 3 months to stack features while raising additional working capital. Feel free to jump in, help us ship, then bounce >> or stick around. A successful launch translates into lots of permanent jobs for those that want them. We're also interested in long-term "side gig" relationships, if that's what you're into—in our experience, a few expert hours often beat full-time learning-curve hours. About Us We're a credible, funded, remote-first startup backed by a growing team. We're pre-launch and moving fast. About The Role This is the relationship-owner seat. Where a customer success associate is the responsive first point of contact, an account manager owns a book of accounts — you're responsible for keeping your members engaged, healthy, and growing over time. Our members are busy professionals and business owners who work through relationships and value their time. They don't want to be "managed" — they want someone who genuinely knows their situation, checks in at the right moments, removes friction, and helps them get more out of what we offer. You'll be the person who owns that relationship end to end: retention, engagement, and expansion. This is part relationship management, part retention, part "grow the account." The bar is warmth, reliability, and follow-through — plus the commercial instinct to spot when an account is ready for more and when one is at risk. Compensation Up to $90,000 max total annual compensation in Tier 1 cities; cash and equity components to be negotiated. Given the flexible commitment model, comp will be structured accordingly — fractional or hourly arrangements welcome.
