Company mission

To reinvent the legacy category of travel and expense with one of the first enterprise technologies utilising the cloud, mobile, and AI to balance business needs with today's modern standards.

Role

Who you are

  • 1+ year(s) of working experience within a success/support environment
  • Strategic: We are still ironing out our processes and want someone who will speak up if they see a better way to do things
  • We will listen. Navan is a complex product which requires you to think outside the box to solve problems
  • Strong communicator: You’ll have to work with many teams, and many customers (some not so happy)
  • You’ll have to be empathetic and specific in communicating about different technical issues
  • Organized: Able to move quickly through and deliver on multiple tasks and priorities. You will be assigned to 300-500 accounts
  • Adaptable: You are flexible and patient with the needs of a scaling startup environment. Navan is a larger company but our team is small and changing quickly
  • Curious: You are always looking for an opportunity to learn, grow and get to the bottom of a complex customer issue
  • Collaborator: you enjoy working with others, providing feedback and helping your team streamline their process
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred but not required

What the job involves

  • Navan is looking for exceptional Account Managers to scale our SMB segment
  • This segment is growing and changing quickly, so we need adaptable and strategic AMs to be a part of building this team
  • As an early member of the team you will have more opportunities to work strategically and collaboratively with other teams than you might in a more traditional role
  • Our team is passionate about working collaboratively and actioning on our own feedback
  • Master the Navan value proposition, solutions, and products
  • Establish consultative, results-driven relationships with multiple customers swiftly
  • Respond to customer requests whether they are experiencing a bug or requesting a training
  • Help customers through appropriate escalation steps to other teams
  • Problem solve for customers by any means necessary and create new processes where necessary
  • Provide feedback to scaled AM and product teams and think strategically about optimizing our team
  • Monitor consumption and satisfaction of current accounts; ensure total adoption of Navan to drive revenue

Our take

Navan (formerly known as TripActions) is operating in a crowded marketplace, betting against rivals with similar offerings of user interface personalisation technology. Even so, the company's growth has skyrocketed and it has attracted significant investor interest. Competitors cannot match Navan's cutting-edge, AI-driven services, as well as 24-hour customer support.

Since its founding in 2015 the company has seen significant growth in transactions and in active users. Having expanded from its core travel expense management product, it now offers a corporate card and general expenses management, underwriting its customers' short term business expenses with its own Liquid financial offering. Navan has a list of impressive clients, including Glassdoor, Zoom, and Shopify.

Moving forwards, the company is focused on gaining more reach, especially in Europe. As part of the expanded go-to-market strategy, it rebranded to Navan with a more people-centric design approach. It also combined its travel, corporate card and expense services into a single app which is now available to individual users rather than only through a corporate account. This will be key in bridging the gap between business travel and consumer apps.
