Readiness for Innovation & Service Excellence Program (RISE) - Client Services Specialist

Paylocity was ranked the 9th fastest growing company by Fortune in late 2020, and we are looking for amazing talent that wants to live the reputation & come grow with us!

Program Overview:
Our Readiness for Innovation and Service Excellence (RISE) Program was designed to think next generation with the recent college graduate (up to two years of experience) in mind- you are fresh off your degree and wanting to develop, learn and grow!

In our RISE program, you will earn it every day as we will train you on our booming industry, company & software while teaching you skills that will build a foundation for success for years to come at Paylocity. You’ll love this role if you get your kicks by helping others. We’re looking for someone who loves solving problems and creating long term customer relationships. This is a great opportunity if you care deeply, genuinely, and passionately about customer support and about the role it plays in making a customer-centric team successful.

RISE allows you to accelerate right to our Account Manager II role where you will work to master the foundational role that will prepare you for any future opportunities by gaining valuable exposure to all of our award-winning products, our clients & our processes.

As an Account Manager II, you’ll be responsible for building strong relationships with the goal of creating loyal Paylocity Clients. The average book of business for our account managers is between $500k - $1 million & between 50-150 mid-size to large clients. That’s amazing responsibility!

Our Account Managers take full accountability for providing timely responsiveness and proactive follow-up, problem solving by leveraging knowledge, resources, qualitative and quantitate information, and professional communication with our clients. They provide clients guidance on HR and Payroll best practices, organizational change management and Paylocity product fit while implementing and optimizing ancillary products.

After 6 months performing in your role as an Account Manager 2, you’ll be invited to attend an exclusive talent development program to prepare you for your next role. These 3-month programs focus on education and readiness, so that you’re in the best position to apply for your next promotion to one of these three key roles:
  • Executive Account Manager – you are focused on the clients & work with our high profile large and complex clients to partner and provide guidance while interacting with senior leaders within Paylocity
  • Team Lead – you are focused on driving results through others & thrive on motivating & guiding employees and clients during often high-pressure situations
  • Technical Support Specialist – you are focused on the technology & troubleshooting while thriving on learning new technical skills then translating your knowledge into actionable directions for clients and account managers
As you enter year two with Paylocity, your growth will fuel opportunity as you will have been given the resources and tools to continue to develop and grow with us into the roles above and beyond!
