About the Role
The Client Manager (CM) role is critical to delivering exceptional outcomes for our Federal Government clients and ensuring CTM remains a trusted strategic partner across the Whole of Australian Government (WoAG) travel program.
The focus of the Client Manager extends well beyond traditional account management. Success in this role is measured by the value you create for your clients through strong strategic partnership, governance excellence, continuous improvement, and the ability to influence positive outcomes across the travel program.
Federal Government clients operate within a highly regulated environment with high expectations around compliance, transparency, performance, and risk management. The Client Manager plays a key role in ensuring these obligations are consistently met while identifying opportunities to improve processes, enhance service delivery, and drive better program outcomes.
The CM is responsible for the strategic management of their client portfolio, including client relationships, contractual performance, service level oversight, reporting, issue management, governance forums, stakeholder engagement, and the successful delivery of agreed initiatives and continuous improvement programs.
