About the Role

As our Growth Manager, you’ll play a key role in strengthening client relationships and growing our business. You’ll manage a diverse portfolio of accounts, ensuring clients receive exceptional service while identifying opportunities to increase value through repeat business, referrals, and new service offerings.

You’ll also be responsible for developing new business opportunities, managing sales pipelines, and staying closely connected to project delivery to ensure we consistently exceed client expectations.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage a portfolio of client accounts with varying goals, needs, and engagement styles.
• Act as the primary point of contact for assigned clients, building trusted, long-term relationships.
• Guide clients through the full engagement lifecycle, from initial conversations through delivery and follow-up.
• Identify, pursue, and convert new business opportunities.
• Grow existing accounts through repeat work, referrals, and expanded service offerings.
• Maintain and manage sales pipelines, tender opportunities, and future work prospects.
• Develop a deep understanding of each client’s business, priorities, processes, and decision-makers.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure seamless project delivery and outstanding client outcomes.
• Monitor project progress and remain actively involved to ensure responsiveness and client satisfaction.

About You

You’ll be a relationship-focused professional with a strong commercial mindset and a passion for helping clients succeed.

You’ll bring:

• Experience in sales, account management, stakeholder engagement, or client relationship management.
• A proven track record of growing revenue through both strategic business development and account growth.
• Strong relationship-building skills with the ability to establish trust and credibility at all levels.
• Excellent communication and negotiation skills.
• A proactive, organised approach with exceptional follow-through.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities across complex client portfolios.

Why Join Us?

This is an opportunity to play a key role in a growing organisation where relationships matter. You’ll have the autonomy to build meaningful partnerships, contribute to strategic growth, and work alongside a collaborative team committed to delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients.
