This role works cross-functionally with internal partners, including Account Executives, Recruiting Leadership, Recruiters, and Operations—to optimize delivery, improve client experience, and identify growth opportunities within existing accounts.

- Ensure timely and successful delivery of staffing solutions aligned with client project needs and objectives
- Collaborate with recruiting teams to align technical talent with engineering disciplines and project requirements
- Forecast, track, and report on key account metrics, including fulfillment activity and revenue performance
- Prepare regular account status updates and performance reports
- Support issue resolution, escalations, and complex client requests as needed
- Proven experience in staffing, recruiting, or account management, preferably within engineering, technical, or AEC markets
- Demonstrated ability to communicate, present, and influence stakeholders at all levels, including senior leadership
- Experience delivering client-focused staffing solutions in a fast-paced, project-driven environment
- Strong working knowledge of Bullhorn ATS/CRM, search tools, and Microsoft Office (especially Excel)
- Ability to manage multiple accounts and priorities simultaneously while maintaining strong attention to detail
