• Identify opportunities to introduce additional HMA products, services, and solutions that address client needs, improve the member experience, support cost management, or strengthen overall plan performance.
• Represent Client Success throughout the sales-to-implementation lifecycle, including participation in finalist presentations, implementation activities, client onboarding, and transition to ongoing account management.
• Partner cross-functionally with teams across HMA to resolve complex client issues, coordinate priorities, and ensure commitments are delivered, serving as the voice of the client internally while balancing client expectations with operational capabilities.
• Proactively monitor the health of assigned accounts, identifying potential service concerns, relationship risks, or competitive threats and developing appropriate mitigation and communication strategies.
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation within the CRM, including client and broker interactions, relationship intelligence, opportunities, risks, commitments, and other account activity to support organizational visibility and coordination.
