·       Proven ability to operate strategically while remaining hands-on in execution.


·       Strong track record of growing client relationships and improving retention and revenue.


·       Solid understanding of software implementation, rollout processes, and translating client needs into development requirements.

·       Experience with CRM platforms (e.g., HubSpot, Salesforce) and task management tools (e.g., ClickUp, Asana, Jira).
