pThe Head of Strategic Growth is the senior executive who owns Wonderful’s largest client relationships after the deal is signed. You take over from the Go-To-Market (GTM) lead once the pre-sale is done, and from that point you are accountable for how the account performs: the business results we deliver, the strength of the relationship at the top of the client, and how the account grows. /p pThis is an Associate Partner-level role, and it is not a senior account-management role. You are not there to run the workplan or to manage the relationship from the top; you own the outcome. You carry a portfolio of accounts at the same time, you are the person the client’s C-suite calls, and you are accountable for the commercial outcome of each relationship: the impact we deliver, the trust we hold with the sponsor, and the next piece of work, which you are expected to shape before the client knows to ask for it. /p pYou are expected to be close to both the C-suite and the operation. You spend time on the ground, understand how the client actually works, and stay close to what is happening in production, so that what you tell the sponsor is what is really going on. /p pDepending on account size, a GTM lead may stay involved alongside you. In many accounts there will be none, and you are the senior face of Wonderful. Either way, delivery and expansion sit with you. /p h3What you will do /h3 h3Lead the client relationship, top to floor /h3 ul lipBe the senior executive sponsor for each account in your portfolio, with a direct line to the client’s CEO, CxOs, and business-unit heads /p /li lipWalk the corridors and the floor: spend real time on site, know what is top of mind for the client’s leadership, and know what is actually happening in the operation where our work runs /p /li lipHold the hard conversations: scope, priorities, expectations, and the occasional reset when something has gone wrong /p /li /ul h3Run executive governance /h3 ul lipOwn the steering cadence with the client’s sponsor and senior stakeholders /p /li lipAlign stakeholders before the meeting, not in it, so decisions are prepared rather than debated live /p /li lipSurface risks early and in the open; the sponsor should never be surprised /p /li lipLeave every forum with clear decisions, named owners, and deadlines, and follow through on them /p /li /ul h3Own delivery and impact /h3 ul lipTake over from the GTM lead at signing and own the account from then on /p /li lipBe accountable for delivery and impact across the account; the delivery and engagement leads run the workstreams day to day,
