Account Manager

Location: Manchester City Centre.

Reports to: Head of Account Management & Customer Success.

Salary: £35k – £40k depending on experience.

Citrus Lime

Citrus-Lime is a fast-growing SaaS business providing Cloud POS—an end-to-end retail

system specifically designed for independent retailers in the Cycle, Equestrian, and

Outdoor sectors. Our platform integrates EPOS, Stock Control, Ecommerce, Supplier

Data, Payments, Reporting, and more, helping retailers streamline operations, improve

customer experiences, and grow sustainably.

We are profitable and financially strong, processing over £750 million in customer

revenues annually. Since launching in 2018, we’ve transformed independent Cycle

retail in the UK and are now expanding rapidly into Outdoor and Equestrian sectors. Our

next phase of growth is international, focusing on the USA, Canada, and Australia.

Our mission is to double our turnover in the next five years, with a strong emphasis on

international expansion. As we scale, strong financial control, performance reporting,

and commercial insight are critical to supporting our sustainable growth.

Role Overview

The Account Manager is responsible for the health and growth of Citrus-Lime’s existing customer relationships. This means keeping retailers engaged, supported and confident in the platform, as well as identifying opportunities to grow revenue through stronger product adoption. At Citrus-Lime, retailer success and our own commercial success are directly linked, and the Account Manager is central to that.

This role requires consistent, proactive engagement with assigned accounts regardless of whether a commercial opportunity is present. A retailer who feels well supported is more likely to grow with us. Genuine curiosity about how customers are running their businesses, and a commitment to being present and useful throughout the relationship, are as important as commercial output.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain regular, proactive contact with all assigned accounts in line with agreed engagement frequency guidelines, including when there is no active sales opportunity.
• Act as the day-to-day point of contact for assigned customers, managing inbound queries, issues and concerns with ownership and appropriate urgency.
• Create, deliver and partner with customers on monthly, quarterly and annual reporting calls.
• Identify and progress upsell opportunities across the product portfolio, including Ecommerce and CitrusPay, through planned outreach campaigns.
• Own the recommitment process for assigned accounts, ensuring renewals are handled proactively and on time.
• Record all customer activity, opportunities and follow-ups in Dynamics CRM inline with company standards, maintaining accurate and up-to-date records at all times.
• Progress opportunities through the pipeline with clear next steps, scheduled follow-ups and closed reasons recorded when opportunities are no longer viable.
• Achieve a minimum of 80% MRR attainment against target on a consistent basis.
• Liaise and coordinate directly with other Citrus-Lime cross-functional teams including among others Support, Digital Marketing and SEO for effective account partnership.

Behavioural Commitments

The person in this role commits to:

• Engaging with customers consistently and with genuine interest, not only when a commercial opportunity is present.
• Treating every customer interaction as an opportunity to understand the retailer’s business more deeply.
• Driving commercial conversations where appropriate, without making every conversation commercial.
• Being passionate about data and being able to effectively present this to customers.
• Keeping CRM accurate and up to date as a matter of professional standard, not compliance.
• Following up on what was promised, when it was promised.
• Raising issues or risks on accounts early rather than allowing them to compound.
• Operating with honesty and directness in both customer and internal conversations.

What Success Looks Like (12 Months)

• Assigned accounts are contacted regularly and in line with engagement guidelines throughout the year, not only when a deal is in progress.
• Customers describe the Account Manager as reliable, present and genuinely interested in their business.

• Assigned accounts show measurable growth in product adoption over the year.
