Summary: You\'ll be the main point of contact for one of our client\'s largest customers. Your role combines technical expertise, customer relationship management, and business development. You\'ll manage the customer\'s account, make sure projects run smoothly, help grow the business, and ensure pricing and profitability targets are met.


Responsibilities

* Customer & Program Management: Oversee the full lifecycle of a major customer program — from setup to delivery — ensuring all technical, commercial, and contractual obligations are met.

* Performance Monitoring: Track project results (cost, schedule, quality) and report regularly to both internal management and the customer. Recommend improvements or corrective actions when needed.
* Continuous Improvement: Collect customer feedback, lead quality or process improvement initiatives, and ensure Dedienne maintains a strong reputation with the client.


Profile
