Client Business Director

Abilitie is looking for a Client Business Director who is ready to take full ownership of client relationships, navigate complexity confidently, and push the boundaries of leadership development. In this high-impact role, you will deliver our flagship programs to Fortune 500 clients, ensuring that each engagement not only meets expectations but redefines them. You will lead with strategic insight, proactive problem-solving, and relentless accountability, balancing program design with consultative selling to drive client growth and retention.

This is not a passive account management role—it’s an opportunity to own outcomes, build deep trust, and create long-term partnerships that grow both our clients' businesses and our own. Reporting to a Senior Business Partner, this role demands precision in execution, adaptability in approach, and a solutions-oriented mindset in every interaction.

If you thrive in high-stakes environments where success is earned through influence, integrity, and ownership, this could be the perfect role for you.

• A Relationship Builder: You instinctively understand how to cultivate trust, advocate for clients, and balance their needs with business objectives. You measure success not just in sales, but in long-term impact. Experience within the Leadership & Development space is beneficial in building credibility with clients.
• An Opportunity Seeker with High EQ: You read the room, sense when to push forward and when to step back, and know that timing and delivery are just as important as the message itself. A background in consultative sales is extremely beneficial for success.
• A Proactive Communicator: You don’t wait for questions—you anticipate them. You stay three steps ahead to create a seamless experience for clients and teammates alike.
• An Accountability Champion: You take ownership of outcomes—both the wins and the challenges. If something goes wrong, you fix it. If something goes right, you build on it. Project management experience is highly beneficial.
• A Curious Learner: You seek feedback, embrace new ideas, and stay focused on the long game—knowing that ego has no place in true partnership.

• →Own the Client Experience: Manage a portfolio of clients, ensuring that every engagement delivers tangible impact and strengthens long-term partnerships.
• →Drive Growth Through Trust: Expand client relationships by consistently providing value—not by pushing unnecessary sales, but by positioning the right solutions at the right time.
• →Lead Complex Global Programs: Coordinate large-scale leadership development initiatives, working closely with senior executives, facilitators, and internal teams to ensure flawless execution.
• →Provide Thought Leadership: Collaborate with clients to design high-impact leadership programs that leverage our award-winning simulations and methodologies.
• →Engage Senior-Level Stakeholders: Act as a trusted strategic partner by working directly with HR and business leaders at some of the world’s most recognized organizations.
• →Execute with Excellence: From event planning to marketing research, no task is too big or too small—every detail matters.
• →Solve Problems Before They Happen: Approach every challenge with a solutions-first mindset, ensuring that obstacles become opportunities.
