Senior Manager, Client Delivery

Strategic Growth Partners is committed to upholding our company values and ensuring data confidentiality. We provide robust IT solutions to our clients across multiple time zones and foster a collaborative, innovative, and diverse work environment. Strategic Growth Partners (SGP) is seeking a highly qualified Senior Manager, Client Delivery who will own the client relationships, opportunity architecture, and production pipeline for the Non-Traditional BD division. The role holds the account book, the standard of the work, and direction of the resources that produce it. Delivery is the growth engine. Everyday client work surfaces the signal that becomes pipeline, so this role sits deliberately at the intersection of the two, running the accounts, converting what those accounts surface into structured opportunities, and directing the production capacity that turns outlines into finished deliverables. This is a judgment and direction role, not a production role. The Senior Manager sets the standard, architects the response, and directs the resources doing the building. Leadership retains final review and close; everything upstream belongs here.
