Client Services Executive

Aleysian•Chicago, IL

2d•$165,000 - $185,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Aleysian is a B2B technology consulting firm that designs and builds the revenue foundation connecting selling, quoting, billing, and fulfillment into a single structural system. We work at the intersection of quote-to-cash and digital commerce, engaging at the C-suite level to architect around your revenue model — not just implement tools. The result is infrastructure built to hold under the weight of growth, across every channel, at scale. The Client Services Executive is the senior leader accountable for the outcome of a portfolio of Aleysian engagements: delivery quality, financial performance, executive client relationships, and the growth those engagements earn. You oversee and align each engagement, hold teams to Aleysian delivery standards, and serve as the escalation point for clients and project team members. Day-to-day execution sits with the project managers who serve as engagement leads, while you focus on the client relationship and the long-term health and growth of the account. You will lead multiple concurrent engagements. This is a hybrid role, with preference for candidates in the Chicago area who can work from our downtown office.

8+ years in professional services or systems integration, including 4+ years in senior client-facing leadership.

Fluency in delivery economics: gross margin, forecast accuracy, utilization, and change discipline.
Experience operating in matrixed delivery models.
History of growing accounts through delivery, with measurable follow-on revenue.
Eligible to work in the United States without limitation.

Experience across the Salesforce platform (Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Commerce Cloud, Revenue Cloud, Data Cloud, Agentforce).
