About the Role

• Use the customer value story to drive retention, renewal, and expansion, recognizing that commercial outcomes are the ultimate proof that sustained customer value has been created.Understand renewal mechanics, risk, expansion opportunities, and commercial trade-offs, and identify a weak value proposition before a renewal becomes a rescue.
