Save Job

Swell Partners provides talent solutions that empower leaders to build workforces to drive long-term success. Our resources span multiple disciplines including all aspects of marketing, product management, and technology. Our goal is to be the change agent that infuses the workforce with happy, flexible talent that will always deliver their personal best.

Responsibilities: At Swell, we value happiness at our core - it’s the most important quality to our team!

We’re looking for a relationship-driven Account Manager to lead and grow our existing contract staffing accounts. This role serves as the primary point of contact for client stakeholders, oversees contractor lifecycle management, and partners closely with our recruiter to ensure exceptional delivery.

This is not a new business sales role. Instead, it’s ideal for someone who thrives in strengthening existing partnerships, managing contract details with precision, and uncovering additional hiring needs within established client relationships.

If you enjoy building trust, leading thoughtful client conversations, and operating at the intersection of people and process - this role is for you.

What You’ll Own: Client Relationship Management

Serve as the primary day‑to‑day contact for existing clients

Lead introductory conversations with new stakeholders within existing clients

Conduct regular check‑ins to ensure satisfaction with their Swell contractors

Identify new requisitions and expansion opportunities within current clients, where possible

Contractor Lifecycle Management

Manage SOW creation and execution at assignment start

Lead extension and renewal conversations proactively

Negotiate rate adjustments and contract changes

Monitor contractor end dates and ensure seamless transitions

Field client questions related to hours, performance, or scope changes

Operational Excellence

Track contract timelines and ensure timely PO receipt

Proactively flag risks or gaps in coverage

Ensure smooth communication between client and internal team

Some Talent Acquisition Responsibilities

Partner closely with one recruiter on talent acquisition tasks, as needed

What We’re Looking For:

~3‑6 years of experience in staffing agency account management or client success

Experience managing contract staffing engagements (not just permanent placements)

Comfort with SOWs, extensions, and rate negotiations

Proven ability to grow relationships within existing accounts

Experience managing or closely directing recruiter delivery

Highly organized with strong attention to detail

Confident communicator who can navigate commercial conversations

What Success Looks Like:

Clients view you as a trusted partner and go‑to contact

Contractor extensions are proactive and seamless

POs and contract documentation are consistently managed without delays

Recruiter partnership is tight and aligned

Expansion within existing accounts grows naturally through strong relationships

Full‑time

40 hours per week

Remote in New York City. Some domestic travel for internal meetings required (2‑4 times per year). Some in‑person meetings in Downtown Manhattan at our major client office, as opportunities permit.
