Account Manager (IT Services)

Virtuas•Houston, TX

4d•Hybrid

About The Position

Virtuas is a Certified B Corp IT services company based in Houston. We work with organizations to design, manage, and improve their technology environment. We are growing our team and looking for someone who wants to own a relationship from start to finish. This role is for someone who is naturally curious, communicates with ease, and gets genuine satisfaction from making something complicated feel clear and manageable for the people they serve. If you have worked in a marketing agency or a client-facing communications role and found that the part you loved most was the client relationship itself, this role was built for you. How We Work You own the relationship end to end, from the initial conversations through onboarding, ongoing service, renewals, and everything in between. Your clients will have one consistent person they trust. That is you. There is no commission in this role. We do not believe great client relationships should be driven by tit-for-tat financial incentives. We measure the success of our CX team by how well we retain clients, how many referrals those clients generate, the quality of the reviews and references they provide, and ultimately the revenue that follows from all of it. Revenue matters, but it is the last thing we think about because when we get the other things right, revenue follows on its own.

Requirements

Strong written and verbal communication skills. You write clearly, speak with confidence, and listen well.
Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple clients and competing priorities at the same time.
Collaborative by nature, comfortable working across teams that range from technical to creative to operational.
Comfortable with Microsoft 365, CRM platforms, and task or project management tools.
Able to work independently and stay productive in a remote environment.

Nice To Haves

2 to 3 years of experience in a client-facing role such as account coordination, client services, marketing account management, or communications.
A background in communications, marketing, or public relations is a strong plus. Marketing agency experience is particularly relevant to how this role operates.
Some exposure to IT services, professional services, or a technical environment.
Familiarity with ticketing systems or service delivery workflows is helpful but not required. You do not need to be technical. You need to be curious and willing to learn.
