The Head of Strategic Relationsworks within the Sales team and coordinates across the whole organisation to manage relationships with Bromcom customers and to develop partnerships with partners who provide services to schools. The role is effectively being the internal 'voice of the customer', working with school, trust and local authority leaders to derive best value from their Bromcom contract. The broad goal is to champion the product and ensure that the product is developed, marketed, and utilised to the fullest extent possible, with satisfied customers that are more likely to renew their contracts and act as reference sites and be more amenable to upsell opportunities. There are four main areas: Forming a strategic relationship with senior leadership in school and trust clients. The focus is upon building a partnership where Bromcom supports the strategic development of the MAT/LA, aligning product roadmap to synchronise with their needs. This is achieved via a collaborative approach to new feature development with key users in strategic clients having influence over features, capabilities and the product roadmap. The post holder will act as a central point to coordinate and prioritise client requirements across Sales (including Conditions of Sale for incoming customers) and work with the Product and Software teams to schedule development.

Ensure that clients know when new features are released and when bugs or development requests that they have requested have been actioned. Act as an escalation point when support or deployment issues have not been addressed to the client's satisfaction. Work with third parties who are approved Bromcom partners to understand how their systems interact with Bromcom and then be able to present a solutions focussed approach to client needs. An example might be to work with vendors that have specialisms in Human Resources, Finance, Payroll, Recruitment etc and propose how Bromcom can be part of an integrated solution to meet client needs. The key elements of the role include: Regular relationship management calls with senior staff and leaders in the largest Bromcom clients. A two-way dialogue about the strategic development of the client's business, new requirements or enhancements, the Bromcom product roadmap and championing new features that Bromcom has developed in order to gain adoption (product positioning) Securing deliverables from the reference sites e.g. quotes, blogs, case studies, video testimonials and 'leads' and passing these on to marketing and sales as necessary.
