Freshworks is seeking a driven Account Manager for their Mid-Market segment to own and grow a portfolio of existing customers while uncovering new expansion opportunities. This is a hybrid role based in San Mateo, CA (3 days/week onsite, Tuesday–Thursday). You will take ownership of a mid-market customer portfolio, driving revenue through renewals, upsells, and cross-sells while working toward ambitious sales targets. Your responsibilities include: • Owning your business: manage a portfolio of mid-market customers, consistently working toward revenue targets through renewals, upsells, and cross-sells. • Finding the next big opportunity: go beyond the initial sale to uncover new use cases, expand into additional teams, and identify ways to grow customer relationships. • Building relationships that open doors: connect with decision-makers and executives, understand their business priorities, and become a trusted partner. • Driving deals from start to finish: lead discovery, navigate complex sales conversations, build compelling business cases, negotiate, and close opportunities. • Turning customer challenges into business wins: demonstrate how Freshworks solves real problems, improves efficiency, and delivers measurable value. • Staying ahead of the game: build and maintain a healthy expansion pipeline, forecast accurately, and take a proactive approach to hitting your numbers. • Winning together: partner with Customer Success, Marketing, Product, and other teams to create a seamless customer experience and unlock growth. • Travel as needed to strengthen customer relationships and create meaningful in-person connections. Freshworks builds uncomplicated service software for customer experience (CX) and employee experience (EX), trusted by over 72,000 companies including Bridgestone, New Balance, Nucor, S&P Global, and Sony Music. REQUIREMENTS: • 5+ years of experience in SaaS sales, account management, or solution-based selling, with a demonstrated track record of achieving or exceeding revenue targets. • A growth mindset: you look for ways to expand accounts, uncover opportunities, and turn conversions into revenue. • Strong commercial instincts: comfortable owning a number, managing a pipeline, forecasting, and navigating complex sales cycles. • Executive presence: can confidently engage senior stakeholders, ask the right questions, and connect business challenges to solutions. • Consultative selling style: know how to listen, challenge assumptions, and build trust while moving opportunities forward. • Collaborative, adaptable approach: thrive in a fast-moving environment, embrace change, and value teamwork. • Bonus: experience with CRM, employee experience (EX), customer experience (CX), or IT service management (ITSM) solutions.
