Account Manager

About the Role

We are seeking an Account Manager with a technology background who has successfully transitioned into client-facing roles. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in banking technology, and the ability to engage in meaningful, solution-oriented conversations with business and IT stakeholders.

This is not a purely sales role — it's about being present with the customer on the ground, walking the floors, understanding pain points, spotting opportunities, and ensuring that Thakral One is seen as a trusted partner. The role will span staff augmentation as well as value-driven technology solutions, consulting, and managed services.

Account Governance & Customer Satisfaction

• Excellent interpersonal, networking, and influencing skills.
• Commercial acumen and understanding of account growth strategies.
