• Coordinate with Business Development to ensure clean handoffs, expectation setting, pricing/SLA alignment, and renewal planning 

• Support contract renewals and retention strategy, including performance recaps, value storytelling, and risk mitigation plans 

• Ensure compliance with Caliber policies, pricing structures, and client-specific requirements (invoicing rules, authorizations, reporting standards, documentation) 

• Contribute to broader sales and company initiatives as needed 

Preferred Skills and Experience 

• 3+ years in B2B account management / customer success / client services (automotive, fleet, insurance, or related services preferred)

• Travel: as needed to support client sites and business reviews (typically 25-50%, based on account footprint)
