Client Solutions Manager

The Opportunity 

We're OpinionRoute. We empower researchers to deliver accurate survey insights using the industry's only true survey workflow operating system, supported by best-in-class managed services.

We believe that marketing research can be made easier through the harmonization of people, technology, and process — and increasingly, that means embracing AI as a core part of how we work. This requires a commitment to creativity and thinking outside the box to improve the research data collection process. We constantly challenge ourselves, creating opportunities for every team member to grow, while never losing sight of the importance of teamwork, passion, and creating value for clients.

The Client Solutions Manager plays a key part in meeting client needs through a first-class service approach in the project execution cycles. The role itself will be a platform for career development and growth. The career path will grow around your unique skills and talents. You will be engaged deeply as an employee to learn the industry and business — including how we're leveraging AI tools to work smarter and deliver better outcomes for our clients. We like to invest in our people.

This is a hybrid position which offers flexibility to work both in-office at our downtown Cleveland headquarters and remote. Open to candidates in other cities.
