As a Client Account Executive at Kenway, you are accountable for the projects, stakeholder relationships, across one or more of our Healthcare and Life Sciences clients. From day one, you’ll lead projects, teams, and solutions that target the latest business and technical challenges companies are facing today.

Client Account Executives at Kenway are responsible for the end-to-end delivery of complex client initiatives and managing scope, budget, risks, and teams to ensure high-quality outcomes while applying deep industry and technical expertise. Client Account Executives are also expected to build trusted client relationships, drive account growth, mentor team members, and contribute to cross-functional initiatives that enhance Kenway’s impact and capabilities.

Within Kenway’s HLS vertical, Client Account Executives are expected to demonstrate, deploy, and deepen proficiency delivering across the healthcare ecosystem, inclusive of life sciences (biopharma, biotech, medtech), health-tech, provider, payer, and related industries.

Core Traits We Are Seeking

  • Delivery Excellence – Client Account Executives are first and foremost consulting practitioners. Candidates must embrace and demonstrate the ability to deliver exceptional quality firsthand throughout Kenway’s engagements, while leading, coaching, and enabling broader project teams to do the same.

  • Professionalism: Given the complexity, magnitude, visibility, and strategic importance of Kenway’s projects, we consistently interface with a diversity of executive leadership. Client Account Executives are expected to demonstrate executive presence, poise, and cogency in all communications and interactions with client, prospect, and internal stakeholders.
  • Aptitude: While Kenway possesses deep institutional expertise and proprietary frameworks, no two projects are the same. Client Account Executives are expected to demonstrate curiosity, climb learning curves quickly, and adapt solutions to the uniqueness of each client and project.
  • Industry Acumen: Client Account Executives within the HLS vertical are expected to demonstrate proficient understanding of industry trends, regulatory landscapes, value chains, business operations, and technical nuances unique to the life sciences and healthcare sectors, while engaging in continuous learning to broaden and deepen their expertise.
