Role overview
This is a client-lead role where you own client relationships and the commercial growth that comes with them. You are the primary point of contact for a portfolio of clients and work to uncover and solve their real business challenges while turning those into signed offers. This is not an operational project role and does not involve disciplinary responsibility or day-to-day project management. If you are energized by owning the client and growing the business rather than managing teams on paper or running project operations, you are in the right place. At VI, leading is about setting direction and getting people pulling towards it without hierarchical or reporting responsibilities.
