About the Role
We are looking for a proactive, client-focused skilled to join our growing team as a Client Success & Sales Operations Specialist.

The ideal candidate brings a strong understanding of the financial services or fund administration industry, excellent communication skills, and the ability to independently manage client interactions and coordinate with internal teams.
Unlike a traditional sales operations role, this position is not focused on supporting sales cycle.

and coordinate with internal teams to resolve complex questions.
- Proactively track client requirements, implementation progress, and outstanding action items to ensure a smooth customer experience.
- Build strong relationships with client stakeholders, ensuring timely communication and effective issue resolution.
- Facilitate a structured handover to the long-term account management team once clients are successfully onboarded and stabilized.
2. Sales Operations & Deal Support
- Work closely with assigned sales managers to support ongoing sales opportunities and client engagements.
- Prepare and coordinate client proposals, presentations, commercial documents, and other sales-related materials using established templates.
- Maintain accurate CRM records, including client interactions, opportunity stages, follow-ups, and key action items.
- Coordinate client meetings, track discussions, and ensure timely follow-ups on outstanding requirements.
- Support the sales process by coordinating with relevant internal stakeholders to address client queries and documentation requirements.
- Ensure a seamless transition from the sales process to implementation without losing relationship continuity.
3. Cross-Functional Coordination & Implementation Support
- Work closely with product, technology, operations, and implementation teams to facilitate successful client onboarding.
- Develop a strong working knowledge of the company's products, services, and relevant industry workflows.
- Translate client requirements into clear action items for internal teams and communicate progress effectively to clients.
- Maintain detailed documentation of client discussions,
product requirements, implementation milestones, and outstanding issues.
- Identify and proactively escalate risks, delays, or challenges that could impact client onboarding or satisfaction.
Required Qualifications & Skills
- Prior experience in customer success, client servicing, relationship management, implementation, or a similar client-facing role within financial services.
- Strong preference for candidates with experience in fund administration, asset management servicing, or related financial services operations.
- Good understanding of fund administration workflows, client requirements, and the broader financial services ecosystem.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the confidence to interact directly with senior client stakeholders.
- Ability to understand product functionality, explain solutions clearly, and independently address client questions.
- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple client engagements simultaneously.
- Ability to coordinate effectively across sales, product, technology, and operations teams.
- Proactive problem-solving mindset with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
- Comfortable working in an evening/night shift aligned with US business hours.
