Why this seat is hard to fill.

Companies where the account manager is the layer between client emotion, delivery reality, reporting, and renewal risk.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the account managers who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. Their clients ask for them by name, which is the clearest sign they are not reading job posts.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A simulated client conversation with scope pressure and weak account results.
  • Written follow-up quality: recap, owners, dates, and next steps.
  • A context check around contracts, renewals, reporting, and churn signals.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than we say yes.

  • Your founder or strategist still carries too many client relationships.
  • You need senior communication without hiring another US account lead.
  • The account seat is tied to retention and margin.
  • You need customer support coverage.
  • You want someone to read dashboards and forward notes.
  • You are not willing to hand over client communication.

What they said after we placed them.
