We are seeking one or two Strategic Account Managers to own relationships with our highest-value clients and serve as the connective tissue between customers and our global execution teams.

The Strategic Account

Manager (SAM) is responsible for owning the end-to-end customer experience for a defined portfolio of high-value accounts. This role sits at the intersection of client management, delivery oversight, and internal coordination, ensuring projects move efficiently, communication is proactive, and CIR consistently delivers on commitments. This role requires strong judgment, explicit communication, and comfort operating across time zones— particularly with delivery teams based in India.

This role is critical to CIR’s ability to scale: as project volume grows, client experience must improve, not degrade.
