At Jellyvision, expect career experiences that challenge you, empower you to have a direct impact on our mission, and enable you to learn, try, and do while having fun along the way.
What’s the role?
Occasionally, one of our 1600+ customers or partners need help solving a communication problem outside the realm of our standard ALEX products. When this happens, we airlift in our Custom Solutions team to build something beautifully bespoke – from microsites to videos to full-on interactive software. How do you fit in? You’ll work closely with customers to answer questions, identify pain, and pitch potential solutions. You’ll handle discovery, price screening, and create a proposal for how you might bring your proposed solution to life, and you’ll be ready and rarin’ to track down answers to technical or creative questions along the way.
You are, in effect, the face of Custom Solutions throughout the buying process.Once the gig is in hand, you’ll help get the delivery team up to speed by sharing your findings and making sure everyone feels energized and aligned. If you ever feel stumped about what solution to pitch, you’ll collaborate with these same cross-functional teams to come up with a solution together.Along the way, you’ll also be doing some (*shhhhh*) secret R&D. The Custom Solutions team often acts as an incubator for our product teams, sniffing out problems that we may want to solve for ALL of our customers instead of just one. When these arise, you’ll work with our product strategy team to see if there’s any “there” there.You’ll report to our SVP of Customer Success within our Revenue org (while working closely with Revenue, Marketing, and Product teams).
