Associate Technical Account Manager

(London-based: 3 days in office)

Our Mission

We're not your average benefits platform – we're the driving force that uplifts people's lives. Our technology connects the entire benefits ecosystem, creating better outcomes for employers, employees, brokers, and providers.

Our mission is clear: to build a world where everything works at its best, ensuring every employee gets the support they need to thrive—both at work and beyond.

Your Mission

As an Associate Technical Account Manager at Ben, you'll be the person our customers rely on when things get technical. You'll own a book of accounts, working alongside our CSMs to make sure customers are getting real value from the platform - and stepping in when things need fixing, explaining, or improving.

This role sits right at the intersection of customer relationships and technical problem-solving. You'll handle escalations, run enablement sessions, dig into recurring issues, and help our customers' admin teams feel genuinely confident using Ben.

We're building out our TAM function as Ben scales into enterprise. That means you're joining early, helping shape how we support our biggest customers, and growing your skills in an environment where there's real ownership from day one.

What you'll be working on

• Owning your accounts technically: you will be managing a book of customers, handling L2 technical escalations, and working with CSMs to keep accounts healthy. You'll monitor customer health, spot early warning signs of issues, and act on them before they become problems.

• Running benefit renewal for your book of customers: coordinating the process end-to-end and making sure nothing falls through the cracks during one of the most important moments in the customer lifecycle.

• Leading enablement and onboarding: you will be running technical onboarding for new customers, carrying out product walkthroughs, and workshops, helping our admin users navigate the platform with ease.

• Investigating and resolving technical issues: you will be digging into problems in depth, partnering with Support, Engineering, and Product teams to get to the root cause. When something's beyond your scope, escalating clearly and effectively to the right people.

• Reducing repeat queries through proactive education: if the same questions keep coming up, that's a signal. You'll spot patterns, feed them back into the team, and build out documentation and resources that solve the problem at scale.

• Contributing to how we work: you will help improve internal playbooks, onboarding frameworks, and knowledge bases. You'll keep customer-facing documentation clear, accurate.

• Supporting cross-employer initiatives: you will be working on projects that improve platform delivery across your accounts, whether that's data clean-ups, integration improvements, or product enablement campaigns.

You'll love this role if you have...

• Experience in a customer-facing technical role: whether that's technical support, technical account management, solutions engineering, implementation, or something adjacent. You've spent time working directly with customers on complex platform or software issues.

• Strong troubleshooting instincts: you're comfortable investigating technical problems, asking the right questions, and working across teams to get things resolved.

• Clear, confident communication: you can explain technical concepts to non-technical people without being patronising, and you can write documentation that people actually read.

• Strong organisational skills: you'll be managing multiple accounts and priorities simultaneously, and things move fast here.

• Curiosity about the product and the customer's world: you want to understand how benefits work, want to deep dive into technical configuration issues, and work hard to help make admin users' lives easier.

Nice to have:

• Experience in benefits, HR tech, payroll, or a related space : very useful context, but we can teach domain knowledge to the right person.

• Familiarity with SaaS platforms, integrations, or APIs: you don't need to write code, but understanding how systems talk to each other is incredibly important in this role.

• Experience running customer training or enablement sessions: webinars, workshops, onboarding calls. You're comfortable presenting and teaching.

• Experience working in a scaling startup environment: our processes are still being built as we grow!
