Now Hiring - The Narrow Lane landscape Company - Account Manager in Needham Heights, MA

Full description of the position

Do you thrive on relationships, build trust effortlessly, and follow through like clockwork? Are you the type who notices what others miss -- a patchy irrigation zone, a messy crew truck, or a client's unspoken concern? If you love being the face of service, thrive in fast-moving environments, and take pride in quality from first connection to final invoice -- we're looking for you.

About the Role

We're hiring a Residential Landscape Account Manager to oversee a book of high-end gardening and full-service maintenance clients. You'll be their trusted advisor -- keeping them up to date, solving problems, and creating memorable service experiences that keep clients coming back (and telling their friends).
