Why it matters: OTE tells you what you could earn. Attainment tells you how realistic it is.

Ask: “What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?”

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

  1. 1.

    This role has been open a while. What's made it hard to fill?

    The answer tells you what candidates saw that made them walk.

  2. 2.

    What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?

    OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.

  3. 3.

    What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?

    Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.

  4. 4.

    Has the comp plan changed in the last 12 to 18 months? What changed?

    A plan that changes every year means the goalposts keep moving.

  5. 5.

    Who sits with reps and reviews calls each week?

    Coaching is often what's behind a good or bad attainment number.

  6. 6.

    Why is this role open? Did someone leave, or is it new?

    New headcount is growth. A replacement means someone left. Ask why.

› When the offer comes

Save these for later. They land better once they've said yes to you.

  1. 1.

    Can I see the full comp plan in writing, including clawbacks and accelerators?

    What's in writing is what gets paid. Read it before you sign.

  2. 2.

    Can I see the actual comp distribution for the team last year, not just the OTE?

    The spread shows what most reps really take home. OTE is just the target.

  3. 3.

    I'd be walking away from earned commission to join. Is there room for a sign-on bonus to help cover that?

    Leaving money behind is a fair reason to ask. The worst answer is no.

Full posting
Remote | Full-Time | E-Commerce Growth Agency Trivium Group is an Inc. 5000-ranked, Clutch Award-winning e-commerce growth agency. We manage the growth of brands doing over $700 million in annual Amazon revenue, and we help them scale profitably on the world's most competitive marketplaces. Our Senior Account Managers don't manage accounts — they own outcomes. We're hiring a Senior Account Manager to manage a portfolio of e-commerce clients. E-commerce client management experience is required; Amazon experience is a bonus, not a requirement. You'll need real performance-marketing instincts, speed, attention to detail, and the ability to treat every client like your own business. You won't be doing it alone. You'll sit on top of a very capable team — PPC and Amazon strategists, creative, listing and data specialists, plus our internal AI ops agent (Viktor) — so your job is to own the relationship and the outcome, not to personally execute every task. Requirements What You’ll Actually Do Own a portfolio of 20–40 e-commerce brands end-to-end - You are the single point of accountability for client results and retention. - Run onboarding, set strategy, deliver results, retain the account — the full lifecycle. - 2-hour response time during business hours, no exception. Own onboarding like it decides the account — because it does - The first 30 days determine whether a client renews. We treat onboarding as strategy, not paperwork. - You set expectations, goals and the measurement plan before anyone touches a campaign. Drive results, not reports - Analyze brand performance and profitability weekly. - Diagnose problems before the client notices them. - Translate numbers into clear, confident client communication. Execute with precision - Build and follow structured processes for every account (audits, research, campaign architecture, optimization cycles) - Log every change. Document every decision. Nothing slips through the cracks. - Coordinate with your strategists daily — you own the relationship, they own execution, and both of you own the result. - Flag and escalate within hours, not days. Operate at Trivium’s pace - We don’t do slow. Scaling decisions get 2–3 weeks to play out, then we adjust. Every week has a purpose. - When something breaks, you fix it the same day — no exceptions. If it can't be fixed the same day, it's escalated by EOD with a plan. - This is a high-volume Slack environment. You will need a real triage system — unread is your to-do list. - If performance is flat for 3 weeks, you’re already pitching the strategic pivot Who This Is For - 3+ years of client-facing Client/Customer Success or Account Management experience at a digital, e-commerce or performance-marketing agency — or at a platform serving external paying clients. Managing e-commerce clients is required. Amazon agency experience is a bonus, not a requirement. Internal, single-brand account management does not count. - You’ve personally owned 20+ client accounts at the same time and didn’t drop the ball. - Hands-on experience running or managing growth for e-commerce brands selling physical products — Shopify, Meta Ads, Google Ads, TikTok Ads or Amazon. - You're analytical: you think in efficiency and margin — ROAS, CPA, conversion rate, contribution profit — whichever platform you learned it on. - You’re fast — you hate bottlenecks, you move things forward. - You’re detailed — your reports don’t have typos, your data is always current, your processes are documented. - You communicate with clarity and confidence — clients trust you because you know what you’re talking about. - You take ownership — you don’t say “that’s not my job”. - Fluent English (written and spoken — advanced level required). Who This Is NOT For - You prefer a predictable, low-pressure environment. - You need to be told what to do every day. - You think “good enough” is good enough. - You avoid difficult conversations with clients. - You’re not comfortable making decisions with imperfect data. - Your e-commerce experience is logistics, fulfillment or operations rather than marketing and advertising. - You've only managed one brand in-house, or a small number of enterprise accounts — we need an external, multi-client book. Benefits Compensation & Benefits - $4,000–$7,000/month (based on experience) - 100% Remote - 25 PTO days + 9 paid holidays - Professional development + direct mentorship from leadership - Join an 80+ person agency ranked Inc. 5000 #170, managing brands generating over $700 million in Amazon revenue The Tools You’ll Use Slack, Amazon Seller Central, Amazon Advertising Console, Helium 10, Jungle Scout, DataDive, My Real Profit, Adlabs, ClickUp, and Viktor (our proprietary AI ops agent). How to Stand Out In your interview, tell us about a time you saved a client who was about to churn. What did you see? What did you do? What happened? We want specifics, not buzzwords.
