SMB Account Manager

About Toptal Toptal is a global network of top talent in business, design, and technology that enables companies to scale their teams, on-demand. With $200+ million in annual revenue and team members based around the globe, Toptal is the world’s largest fully remote workforce. We take the best elements of virtual teams and combine them with a support structure that encourages innovation, social interaction, and fun. We see no borders, move at a fast pace, and are never afraid to break the mold. Job Summary: Our Account Managers grow and retain Toptal’s small- and medium-sized business clients. You will own a book of high-value SMB accounts, become a trusted advisor to each client, and proactively expand each relationship across Toptal’s full portfolio, including specialized talent, global hiring and payroll through HireGlobal, and our AI-driven, platform-powered, outcome-focused services offerings. This is a high-energy, consultative growth role. You will look beyond the transactional request to understand the business problem behind it, identify needs the client has not yet voiced, and build account plans that turn one successful engagement into a broader partnership. Excellence in this role means asking better questions than the clients expect, keeping every engagement healthy, and consistently turning insight into expansion revenue. You will own the full client lifecycle. You will be the primary point of contact for your accounts, guide clients through active projects, resolve issues before they stall decisions or put the relationship at risk, and know when to bring in specialists for deeper expertise. You will work closely with Talent Operations, Delivery, HireGlobal, and Toptal’s services experts to deliver an exceptional experience while driving growth. Our ideal candidate is ambitious, competitive, driven by client service, and pairs that drive with genuine curiosity about how businesses work. If you want to build real consultative selling skills in a fast-paced environment and be recognized for the growth you create, this is the team you want to be part of. This is a remote position.

You earn the right to recommend before you recommend. Account Planning: You build and execute proactive account plans that connect each client’s business goals to the right Toptal offering, with clear next steps, timing, and expansion targets. Portfolio Selling: Clients rarely arrive with their full set of needs articulated. You expand accounts across Toptal’s full portfolio, including specialized talent, HireGlobal for global hiring and payroll, and our AI-driven, platform-powered services offerings, positioning Toptal as a strategic partner rather than a single-transaction talent vendor. Qualify, Manage, and Win Expansion: You own expansion from identification through qualification, proposal, negotiation, and close across departments, projects, and offerings. You explain why the relevant offering fits and address concerns, bringing in teammates as subject-matter experts for specialized offerings and working with internal specialists and experts for solution expertise and scoping. You own the client relationship.
