About Panorama: 

Panorama Education, based in Boston, is a fast-growing technology startup focused on radically improving education. Today, 900 school systems serving ten million students have adopted the 

Panorama platform, including New York City, Miami-Dade, Seattle, San Francisco, Dallas, and eight departments of education. Schools use Panorama to improve student outcomes by using data, from helping teachers hone their practice, to engaging with families and to build school culture. 

Panorama's Account Management team partners with hundreds of school districts and charter networks to take them from "We just signed up for Panorama" to "Panorama helps us improve education for our students in many important ways." With a near-perfect renewal rate, excellent customer satisfaction, and strong year-over-year account growth our team has set a high bar. Our districts want support and expertise bringing Panorama’s product to their districts. That’s where our team comes in. 

About the Role:  

As an Account Manager, you play a central role on the Account Management team, as you are responsible for renewing accounts in our Districts & Schools segment and helping drive revenue growth across your portfolio. Your primary responsibilities include retaining business, sourcing, and closing upsell opportunities and developing relationships with district leaders in districts with up to 5,000 students in an assigned territory.  You will work closely with client buyers and decision-makers including superintendents of school districts and leaders of charter management organizations to ensure that Panorama’s value is being articulated, ultimately leading to successful retention and growth across your accounts.

Key Responsibilities

• Contribute to Panorama’s excellent renewal rate by owning renewals across a portfolio of up to 150 partner districts (including renewals tied to school board approvals and disparate funding sources). This entails understanding budget cycles and contract options preferred by our clients, including the structure of license fees and timing of renewals.
• Increase footprint and business with existing clients, discovering and maturing opportunities to grow Panorama’s business.
• Develop account plans for key accounts and monitor overall account health across your portfolio, intervening and creating/implementing strategies when an account displays signs of risk.
• Collaborate closely with project leads to provide outstanding relationship management and function as a thought partner to our clients.
