Experience

1. Accounts Manager

   Agile Squad

   Sep 2017 — Present · River Edge, NJ, US

   An Accounts Manager in a US IT staffing firm owns the full relationship lifecycle with client organizations and ensures every engagement runs smoothly from requisition to delivery. The role starts with understanding each client’s business model, technology stack, hiring patterns, and workforce priorities. What this really means is staying ahead of their needs, spotting gaps before they become urgent, and presenting the right talent solutions at the right time.The day-to-day revolves around managing active accounts, building trust with hiring managers, procurement teams, and VPs, and guiding them through the entire staffing workflow. This includes gathering detailed requirements for niche IT roles, advising on market availability, salary benchmarks, and delivery timelines, and making sure every submitted candidate is vetted, qualified, and aligned with the client’s expectations. A strong Accounts Manager keeps communication tight — coordinating between recruiters, clients, and consultants to eliminate surprises and keep placements moving.On the operations side, the role handles SOW discussions, rate negotiations, onboarding processes, background checks, project start coordination, and consultant care throughout the assignment. When issues come up — performance, billing discrepancies, extension planning — the Accounts Manager resolves them quickly and professionally so the partnership stays solid. They track KPIs like fill ratios, submission quality, response time, and revenue growth, using these insights to refine delivery strategies.A big part of the job is expansion. The Accounts Manager looks for opportunities to grow existing accounts, introduce new service lines, and convert small engagements into long-term strategic relationships. They collaborate closely with recruiting leads to forecast demand, prioritize openings, and maintain a strong talent pipeline across cloud, DevOps, data, cybersecurity, development, and enterprise apps.
