Job Purpose:  Technical Account Manager at Proactis Ltd is the dedicated technical point of contact for a defined set of existing customer accounts, bridging the gap between the customer’s technical environment and Proactis’s product, implementation, and support teams. This role exists to resolve the technical friction that blocks adoption, stalls migrations, and - if unaddressed - creates real renewal and churn risk.
Working across Account Management, Customer Success, Professional Services, and Engineering, the Technical Account Manager provides hands-on technical guidance on integrations, data management, migrations, platform upgrades, and configuration issues. They bring product depth to triage problems independently, identify the correct internal path, and work cross-functionally to provide solutions minimising internal escalations.
The Technical Account Manager will join recurring customer calls as the technical voice, lead initial investigations of suspected bugs and platform issues, own data extract and export requests, and support integration, migration, and upgrade workstreams end-to-end. Success in this role requires a blend of technical capability, customer-facing confidence, and commercial awareness- understanding precisely when an unresolved technical issue becomes a retention risk that the wider team needs to act on.

Highly organised and   accountable: tracks every open issue with rigour, communicates status updates   consistently, and closes the loop on every workstream - customers and   colleagues always know where things stand 
Collaborative and   escalation-savvy: works effectively across Engineering, Support, Professional   Services, and Account Management to resolve issues independently escalating as appropriate
