Our solutions support a broad set of vertical markets, including associations, camps, studios, pet-care, education and youth programs, nonprofits, municipalities, faith-based organizations, wellness businesses, and other community-based organizations. \nAs TogetherWork continues to grow across multiple products and verticals, we are investing in a more structured, proactive, and premium technical support experience for our most important and complex customers. We are seeking a Director of Technical Account Management to build, commercialize, launch, operate, and scale this function from the ground up. \nPosition Summary \nThe Director of Technical Account Management will be responsible for building, launching, monetizing, and leading TogetherWork’s Technical Account Management function as a paid premium support program. This is not a traditional sales account management role. The focus is on premium technical support, proactive customer health management, escalation ownership, operational excellence, and creating a differentiated service experience that customers are willing to pay for. \nThis leader will stand up the program from scratch and will be accountable for moving quickly from concept to revenue. Within the first six months, the Director is expected to define the premium support offering, partner with commercial teams on packaging and pricing, identify the initial customer segments, launch a pilot, support early sales efforts, establish service delivery standards, and begin generating measurable revenue from the program. \nThis role is ideal for a hands-on builder who has experience scaling premium support, technical account management, enterprise support, or customer engineering programs in a SaaS or software environment. The Director must be equally comfortable designing the operating model, managing complex customer escalations, supervising TAM team members, collaborating with Product and Engineering, and partnering with Sales and Customer Success to turn premium support into a valuable, revenue-generating offering. \nThe successful candidate will bring strong technical support expertise, commercial awareness, executive communication skills, operational discipline, and the ability to create structure in a multi-product, multi-vertical environment. This person will serve as the leader responsible for ensuring TogetherWork’s most important and complex customers receive a proactive, coordinated, technically credible, and premium support experience. \nKey Responsibilities \nBuild and Monetize the TAM / Premium Support Program \nDesign, build, launch, and operate TogetherWork’s Technical Account Management program as a paid premium support offering for strategic, high-value, and technically complex customers. \nOwn the creation of the program charter, operating model, service tiers, customer eligibility criteria, staffing model, engagement cadence, escalation framework, reporting structure, and success metrics. \nPartner with Sales, Customer Success, Finance, Support, Product, and business unit leadership to define the commercial model for premium support, including packaging, pricing inputs, service levels, customer value proposition, renewal motion, and expansion opportunities. \nDevelop a premium support offering that can be clearly explained, sold, delivered, and measured across multiple TogetherWork products and verticals. \nCreate the initial go-to-market framework for the TAM program, including customer segmentation, target account lists, enablement materials, internal FAQs, customer-facing descriptions, and pilot criteria. \nWork with Sales and Customer Success to identify early adopter customers, support commercial conversations, participate in customer discussions when needed, and help convert pilot customers into paying premium support customers. \nEnsure the program begins generating measurable revenue within the first six months of launch. \nDefine what customers receive as part of the premium support offering, such as named TAM access, recurring technical reviews, proactive support trend analysis, escalation management, release readiness support, technical environment reviews, incident follow-up, and customer-specific support planning. \nEstablish clear boundaries between Technical Account Management, Customer Success, Sales, Support, Professional Services/Implementation, Product, and Engineering so the TAM function remains focused on technical health, support excellence, escalation ownership, and premium support delivery rather than quota-carrying account management. \nCreate scalable playbooks, templates, runbooks, customer-facing materials, internal workflows, governance processes, and reporting standards that can be applied across products and verticals. \nContinuously assess program profitability, customer adoption, staffing needs, service utilization, renewal impact, expansion potential, and customer satisfaction. \nLead Premium Customer Technical Health \nOwn the technical support experience for designated premium customers across TogetherWork’s product portfolio. \nDevelop and monitor customer technical health indicators, including support volume, severity trends, escalation frequency, recurring issues, SLA performance, product adoption risks, implementation complexity, integration challenges, payment-related support needs, release impacts, and customer sentiment. \nEnsure TAMs provide proactive, structured engagement with assigned customers, including recurring technical reviews, support trend analysis, open issue reviews, launch readiness planning, incident follow-up, and recommendations to reduce customer friction. \nOversee the creation of customer-specific support plans for complex or high-value accounts, including stakeholder maps, communication preferences, technical environments, open risks, known dependencies, escalation protocols, and success criteria. \nEnsure premium customers receive clear communication, timely follow-through, and coordinated resolution when issues span multiple teams, products, integrations, or systems. \nDrive root-cause analysis and corrective action planning for recurring customer issues, major incidents, missed expectations, or operational breakdowns. \nUse insights from premium customer engagements to identify product gaps, documentation needs, process improvements, training opportunities, and systemic support issues. \nBuild, Lead, and Develop the TAM Team \nHire, onboard, coach, and develop a high-performing team of Technical Account Managers supporting multiple TogetherWork products and verticals. \nDefine TAM role expectations, competency models, career paths, performance scorecards, onboarding plans, training programs, and quality standards. \nCoach TAMs on technical troubleshooting, customer communication, commercial awareness, executive presence, customer de-escalation, support analytics, cross-functional influence, documentation quality, and proactive customer management. \nSet clear team goals and operating rhythms, including weekly case reviews, escalation reviews, customer health reviews, backlog reviews, revenue tracking, pilot reviews, program retrospectives, and quarterly planning. \nCreate a culture of ownership, responsiveness, accountability, curiosity, customer advocacy, and continuous improvement. \nBalance team capacity, customer assignments, product specialization, vertical expertise, service coverage, and revenue commitments to ensure consistent delivery as the program scales. \nServe as an escalation point for TAMs and customers when issues require senior leadership involvement, cross-functional prioritization, customer-facing action plans, or sensitive communication. \nDrive Support Operations, Metrics, and Revenue Accountability \nEstablish the dashboards, KPIs, and reporting mechanisms needed to measure the performance, customer value, and revenue impact of the TAM program. \nTrack and report on metrics such as premium support revenue, pilot conversion rate, customer adoption, attach rate, renewal influence, expansion influence, premium customer satisfaction, escalation volume, time to resolution, time to first meaningful response, SLA attainment, recurring issue reduction, backlog aging, customer health, and TAM engagement quality. \nUse data to identify patterns, prioritize improvements, allocate resources, manage program profitability, and demonstrate the business value of premium support to executive leadership. \nPartner with Support Operations to ensure ticketing workflows, case categorization, severity definitions, handoff processes, knowledge management, and reporting structures support the needs of premium customers. \nCreate and lead governance forums for premium support, including regular cross-functional reviews with Support, Product, Engineering, Customer Success, Sales, Finance, Implementation, and business unit leaders. \nDevelop a repeatable approach for post-incident reviews, executive summaries, customer-facing action plans, internal lessons learned, and revenue performance reviews. \nEnsure the program is scalable, measurable, commercially viable, and operationally disciplined while still allowing flexibility across TogetherWork’s different product lines and customer types. \nPartner Cross-Functionally Across Products and Verticals \nWork closely with Support teams to advocate for customer-impacting defects, technical debt, product gaps, integration issues, and reliability concerns surfaced through the TAM program. \nPartner with Customer Success to align on customer health, renewal risks, adoption blockers, executive communication, commercial opportunities, and action plans for strategic accounts. \nCollaborate with Support leaders to ensure premium support processes complement, rather than duplicate, the broader support organization. \nWork with Implementation and Professional Services teams to ensure customers transitioning from onboarding to steady-state support have clear ownership, documentation, and technical continuity. \nPartner with Payments, Security, Data, and Platform teams as needed to support customers with complex operational, compliance, integration, or transaction-related needs. \nProvide leadership with a clear view of systemic customer issues, product friction, vertical-specific support trends, and opportunities to improve the overall customer experience. \nManage Escalations and Executive-Level Customer Communication \nLead or oversee critical customer escalations involving complex technical issues, repeated support failures, major incidents, high-risk accounts, or executive visibility. \nEnsure escalations have clear owners, timelines, communication plans, next steps, and resolution criteria. \nCommunicate confidently with customer executives, technical administrators, internal leaders, and cross-functional teams during sensitive or high-pressure situations. \nTranslate complex technical issues into clear business language for non-technical stakeholders. \nEnsure customers receive appropriate transparency, urgency, and follow-through without overcommitting or creating unrealistic expectations. \nDevelop escalation playbooks and communication standards that can be used consistently across the TAM team. \nImprove the Customer and Employee Experience \nIdentify opportunities to reduce customer effort, prevent repeat issues, improve documentation, streamline handoffs, and strengthen the support experience. \nPartner with Knowledge Management and Support Enablement teams to
