TL;DR
Account management is one of the most ATS-screened job categories in the UK. 97.8% of Fortune 500 companies screen applications through an ATS before a human reads them. If your account manager CV is filtered before a human reads it, the keywords an ATS expects are usually missing.
The fix is not keyword-stuffing
At CVPilot the pattern that works is consistent:
- Summary leads with your strongest keywords, anchored to a quantified result
- Every bullet pairs a keyword with a number
- Tools and systems named explicitly so the parser matches them
The contrarian bit
Relationship language is now table stakes. The differentiation is commercial. "Retained 96% of a £3m portfolio" beats "passionate about client relationships" every time.
