Summary
The Membership Account Manager (MAM) is responsible for ensuring that CW maintains a thriving and valuable relationship with each of its members.
Position Description
You will build long-term relationships with key contacts and team leads, ensuring that communication is regular and constructive throughout the length of their relationship with CW. You will be responsible for retaining members by understanding their needs, directing them to relevant activities and delivering value added services. You will be a member champion internally, highlighting their requirements with colleagues and creating opportunities.

You will have the opportunity to get involved in strategic planning, sales and support activities.
Background
CW is a leading membership organisation for companies involved in the research, development and application of wireless and mobile, internet, semiconductor and software technologies. It is an exciting time for the company: over the past two years we have diversified our offering, adding innovation programmes with major multinationals, international partnerships, training days and sustainability-themed activities to our portfolio. We’ve also just become a certified CPD accreditation provider!
Amidst all this, maintaining membership satisfaction remains our number one priority. We have about 400 members, ranging from local start-ups to national operators and international software giants. Understanding the individual requirements of each of our members, directing them to relevant activities and, where appropriate, delivering bespoke support to help them achieve their goals is critical to the ongoing success of the business. All employees of member companies can access CW member benefits, and effort is needed to increase the number of teams per company accessing CW’s services. There is also a commercial aspect to the role in identifying new sales opportunities (with both existing and new customers) that can be followed up on by the business development team.
We work in the Bradfield Centre, a vibrant co-working space in the centre of the Cambridge Science Park. The team is small, friendly and incredibly productive. Each team member makes a visible impact on the company’s performance and is fully supported by colleagues and management. Your ideas will be heard.
