About the Role
PRI is seeking a Senior Account Manager to own and grow client relationships in our Earth & Environment sector, based in Toronto. This is a senior commercial role for an experienced relationship-builder who thrives on winning and growing environmental and earth-sciences work, and who is ready to carry significant accounts with real autonomy in the Ontario market.
