A well-established label and packaging manufacturer is seeking an experienced Customer Service Account Manager for its Commack, New York operation.
This position manages complex customer accounts and serves as the primary point of contact between customers and internal manufacturing teams. Youll coordinate closely with Production, Scheduling, Prepress, Quality, Finance, and Sales to ensure orders, specifications, timelines, and customer expectations are handled accurately from order entry through delivery.
This is a strong opportunity for someone with previous labels, printing, packaging, or manufacturing customer service experience who understands both the customer side and the operational side of getting jobs produced and delivered successfully.
What Youll Do
Manage day-to-day relationships with assigned customer accounts.
Serve as the primary contact for orders, specifications, timelines, revisions, and customer requests.
Coordinate customer requirements with Production, Scheduling, Prepress, Quality, Finance, and Sales.
Manage complex orders, changing priorities, revisions, and customer escalations.
Track orders from placement through production and delivery.
Communicate production schedules, lead times, changes, and potential delays to customers.
Maintain accurate order documentation, specifications, pricing, and invoicing information.
Identify scheduling, production, quality, or delivery risks before they become larger customer issues.
Work with internal teams to resolve problems quickly and keep customer commitments on track.
Support key service metrics including on-time delivery, responsiveness, order accuracy, and customer satisfaction.
Partner with Sales on new customer onboarding, account growth, and customer initiatives.
Participate in customer meetings and account reviews as needed.
Help improve internal communication, workflows, and customer service processes.

Experience within labels, printing, packaging, converting, or manufacturing strongly preferred.
Experience managing complex or high-touch customer accounts.
Understanding of manufacturing workflows, production schedules, lead times, and order execution.
Ability to manage multiple customer accounts, orders, deadlines, and changing priorities.
Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to identify issues and drive them toward resolution.

Strong attention to detail with specifications, pricing, order information, and documentation.
Ability to work independently and take ownership of customer issues.

Experience working with ERP, order-management, or manufacturing systems.

Exposure to RFID, offset, lithographic, or other print technologies is a plus.
Experience working directly with production scheduling, prepress, quality, estimating, and sales teams.
Experience supporting demanding or complex customer accounts.
Experience working with customers in industries such as food and beverage, personal care, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, chemical, medical device, or consumer products.

For someone with label, printing, packaging, or manufacturing experience who enjoys solving problems, managing customer relationships, and coordinating complex production requirements, this position offers a solid combination of customer interaction, operational responsibility, and long-term growth potential.
