Objective of the role: At 8allocate, we are shifting the paradigm from general software development and staff augmentation to becoming a niche AI-driven consultancy. As our Account Manager, you won’t just be a point of contact; you will be the bridge between our clients’ business goals and our engineering excellence. Reporting directly to the COO, you will manage a portfolio of 5-10 accounts, ensuring high NPS and fostering account growth.
Cooperation: Long-term. Position: New. Timezone requirements: 9 am. — 6 pm. or 10 am. — 7 pm. UA time zone (UTC+2).

This includes accurate invoicing, controlling, and tracking client payments, and proactively managing debt collection to ensure no overdue accounts; * Manage projects involving mixed teams, coordinating and overseeing subcontractors; * Be available in US/UK time zones as needed (occasional late-evening communication) and open to international travel for in-person client visits.
Cultural & Behavioral Fit: * Honest and Ethical — communicates openly, upholds ethical standards, and cultivates strong, trust-based relationships; * Adaptable and Solution-Oriented — a proactive problem solver who embraces challenges, learns quickly, and thrives in changing environments; * Reliable and Accountable — takes ownership of tasks, stays self-organized, and follows through on commitments; * Collaborative Team Player — works effectively in diverse, cross-functional teams, contributing meaningfully to shared goals; * Resilient Under Pressure — a calm and composed person who can handle stress, navigate conflicts, and perform well in demanding situations; * Growth-driven and Proactive — a self-motivated learner who actively seeks feedback, takes initiative, and continuously improves to drive innovation.
