Customer Lead - Sentient Motion

About Sentient Motion

Sentient is a partner-led AI practice that puts a full AI team behind every client. As a Customer Lead, you own one client end-to-end: you sell the engagement, set the system up, sit desk-side while it embeds, drive adoption to the day-89 continuation decision, then keep and grow the account. No handoff to delivery, no account team behind you. One person, one client, the whole arc.

What You’ll Do

• Sell. Run live discovery sessions on the prospect’s own data. The working session is the proposal. They watch the system operate on their business before they sign.

• Set up. Configure the connectors and skill files that make the system theirs. Clients go live in 1-2 weeks, not months.

• Onboard. Work desk-side with the client’s team, building the habits that make the system stick.

• Imagine the work. Spot the tasks inside a client’s business that the AI team could own, including the ones nobody thinks to ask for, and turn them into running workflows.

• Drive adoption. Track usage per seat through day 89, when the client makes the continuation decision. That’s your number.

• Keep and grow. Quarterly desk-side sessions with your clients, free, forever. Expand seats, land referrals, grow your book.

• Compound. Feed transcripts, objections, and wins into our shared context layer weekly. Every client you run makes the next one easier to win.

Why This Role?

You work with a dedicated AI manager agent that handles the verifiable half of the job: account research, demo builds, follow-ups, ROI tracking. Your calendar is protected for the two things that genuinely need a human: the room and the desk-side. Our org design puts people in exactly two places: partners setting direction, and Customer Leads in the field. That’s you, with leverage no agency role has ever had.

Who We’re Looking For

• 3+ years in product management, product marketing, customer-facing analytics, consulting, or digital services, ideally with a customer-centric, product-led growth background.

• Task imagination: You see the tasks hiding inside a client’s business that AI could own, often before the client does.

• Sells by demonstrating, not pitching: Can run a room on a prospect’s live data and think on their feet.

• Hands-on enough to configure the system yourself; relational enough to be trusted desk-side for years.

• Motivated by owning a number and a book of clients, not by managing a team.
