  • Set strategic direction for the Account Management teams to exceed our targets and maintain our strategic cities, while consistently reviewing and updating strategies as our business evolves.
  • Consistently analyze the performance of the Account Management department ensuring prompt delivery and accuracy of daily/weekly/monthly/quarterly reports to executives and senior management.

Requirements

  • 7-10+ years of experience.

  • Understanding of both the regulatory processes and politics involved at the state and local level; experience navigating city and state level government.
  • Experienced public speaker, comfortable communicating your message and responding to tough questions from hostile audiences- from community groups to high-ranking elected officials.
  • Ability to think on your feet- to quickly synthesize and respond to new information while also continuing to drive your priorities- both one-on-one or when presenting publicly.
  • Thorough attention to detail when analyzing regulatory language and parameters.

Preferred Qualifications

  • BA required, advanced degree, JD, MBA, or MPA preferred.
