Customer Commercial Manager

Our Story

In July 2019, Fourth joined forces with HotSchedules to become the global leader in end-to-end restaurant and hospitality management technology solutions. Together, the merged company now represents the world’s largest and only provider of end-to-end restaurant and hospitality management solutions for customers across the globe and of all sizes, from a single location or franchisee restaurant to a global restaurant or hotel chain. The combined company’s complete software-as-service (SaaS) solution suite including scheduling, time & attendance, applicant tracking, training, inventory management / procurement, HR / benefits and payroll services now serves customers in 120,000 locations worldwide and is supported by a dedicated, unified team across offices in the US, UK, Bulgaria, China, Australia, and UAE.

Position Overview

The Customer Commercial Manager acts as the customer-success-side sales rep for Independent, SMB, and edge-case Emerging accounts. The role owns and closes upsell opportunities directly for all Independent + SMB accounts that fall below the qualifying ARR threshold, applying inside sales discipline to open, qualify, and close deals rather than simply receiving pre-qualified handoffs. Opportunities that meet or exceed the ARR threshold, or that trigger a formal RFP, are escalated to the Sales/Account Executive team. Emerging-segment opportunities are only engaged when specifically directed by CS Leadership. Cross-sell, New Restaurant Opening, and new customer opportunities fall outside this role and are managed elsewhere.

The role also owns Fourth's EMEA P2P supplier account management — trading relationships, onboarding, and revenue opportunities across the supplier base — consolidating commercial ownership of both customer-side opportunities and supplier-side trading relationships in a single function.

Primary Responsibilities
Opportunity Management & Deal Closing

● Own and close all Independent account opportunities directly, regardless of value, as Fourth's Customer Adoption commercial rep

● Own and close SMB opportunities that fall below the qualifying ARR threshold (~10% of current software ARR, per the FY26 EMEA Rules of Engagement) or that haven't triggered a formal RFP; escalate SMB opportunities that meet or exceed the threshold, or trigger an RFP, to the Sales/Account Executive team

● Engage with Emerging-segment opportunities only when specifically directed by CS Leadership, applying the same threshold-based escalation logic; cross-sell, New Restaurant Opening, new customer, read-only portal, eClock-only, and standalone Managed Services opportunities sit outside this role's scope throughout

● Stay on the opportunity team when escalating a deal to Sales, in line with Fourth's Salesforce tracking practice, to retain appropriate credit and visibility on key milestones

● Conduct solution discovery and tailored demonstrations where needed, articulating clear value propositions to secure customer commitment

● Maintain accurate, up-to-date opportunity data in Salesforce — correct Opp.Type classification, stage, close date, activities, and notes — and meet or exceed assigned revenue and quota targets

Supplier Account Management — EMEA P2P Vendors

● Work with suppliers to generate qualified opportunities for new supplier trading relationships, advising on Fourth's P2P integration methods and trading agreement options

● Manage existing Enterprise supplier trading agreements to prevent attrition, planning and attending regular meetings with managed accounts

● Support Marketing and Sales by identifying supplier trends and buying-power opportunities across the customer base

● Implement and maintain tangible measures of supplier satisfaction, gathering feedback and improving processes where needed

Pipeline & Forecasting Discipline

● Maintain Salesforce as the single source of truth for opportunity activity, SOWs, and time-tracking compliance

● Provide accurate, timely sales forecasts and pipeline updates to Customer Adoption and Commercial leadership

Cross-Functional Collaboration

● Partner with Independent, SMB, and Emerging CSMs on opportunity identification and qualification, and with CS Leadership on scope for Emerging edge cases

● Align with Sales leadership on consistent application of Rules of Engagement thresholds when escalating qualifying opportunities

● Work with Technical Consulting to hand off closed supplier opportunities for onboarding and contracting

● Collaborate with CS leadership and Sales on complex commercial situations and pricing exceptions

Key Skills and Competencies

● Proven inside sales or commercial account management experience, ideally within SaaS or technology

● Comfortable owning the full deal lifecycle for a high-volume Independent and SMB portfolio — from qualification through to close — rather than cold outbound prospecting

● Confident closer — able to run discovery, present value propositions, and negotiate commercial terms

● Strong Salesforce discipline — accurate opportunity, forecast, and pipeline management

● Commercially minded, with an aptitude for identifying revenue opportunities within existing accounts and supplier relationships

● Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Preferred Experience and/or Qualifications

● Experience managing supplier, vendor, or partner trading relationships, ideally involving EDI or P2P integrations

● Background in hospitality, workforce management, or HCM technology

● Experience carrying a quota or commission-based target in a customer success or account management adjacent role

● Familiarity with structured deal qualification frameworks between CS and Sales (e.g. ARR-threshold or RFP-based Rules of Engagement)

● MEDDIC Methodology

● Salesforce & Gong Experience
