Relationship Manager, Early Stage

At Mercury, we’re building a better way to bank* for all types of businesses. We started by imagining what the best banking platform for startups would look like and in just a few short years we have over 200,000 customers using Mercury’s products, supporting their businesses as they grow.

As a Relationship Manager at Mercury, your role will be grounded in engaging with our early-stage customer base (i.e. a startup that participated in a well-known accelerator or a solo-founder that raised their first round of vc-backed capital) to develop relationships focused on elevating their Mercury experience and ultimately supporting them in making the most out of our platform.

Working with a larger book of these accounts, you’ll aim to intimately understand how Mercury’s platform (feel free to check out our demo here) helps our customers simplify their day-to-day finances and focus on what’s most important to these customers: building their company. Directly collaborating with founders, you will identify meaningful opportunities to provide value, all measured against quarterly retention and growth metrics. This entails balancing a high-velocity approach with a curated and personalized experience for your customer base, supporting the long-term retention and ultimate growth of your book of business.

This will be a highly cross-functional role, working closely with Activation, Sales, Customer Support, Product and Marketing just to name a few. You will act as the internal champion for our customers being a crucial catalyst for product improvement. As an early member of the Relationship Management team, you’ll also play a key role in shaping core processes and organizational structure as we scale.

What you’ll do:

• Act as the primary point of contact for clients, serving as the face of Mercury and supporting them in optimizing their banking and financial workflows, with a keen focus on clear and concise communication for a fast-paced audience.
• Proficiently manage a large portfolio, implementing processes to ensure operational efficiency and effective engagement with clients.
• Upsell and cross-sell by introducing new features and products to our clients to drive product value and revenue.
• Navigate our tech stack (Salesforce, Outreach, Slack, etc.) to keep customer records up to date, with a focus on data hygiene.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with sales, customer support, product, engineering, marketing, and other cross-functional partners to best support your customers’ needs.
• Listen, educate, and provide value to Mercury’s customers, acting as their internal advocate. Summarize and share customer insights internally to assist in informing product roadmap moving forward.

Who you are:

• You have 2-3+ years of experience in a customer-facing Account Management, Customer Success, or Relationship Management role - bonus if in SaaS or FinTech spaces.
• You have experience creating impact for your customers while maintaining an eye for process and detail.
• You’re a natural communicator, consistently through your career showcasing the ability to engage effectively with all levels of stakeholders and decision-makers, translating complex information into clear, concise messages that resonate with your audience.
• You have a bias toward action. You actively listen to customers’ goals, enabling you to build and deliver high-quality engagement strategies, in turn supporting customers to get the most out of the platform.
• You’re excited to create and shape new processes and workflows as part of a new and fast-growing team.
• You have excellent time management and are confident prioritizing across concurrent and time-sensitive projects and priorities.
• You are effective at building strong relationships with internal stakeholders with a focus on mutual goal setting and driving initiatives forward.
