Manager, Customer Success

About Stellar Health: Historically, US Healthcare has relied on a fee-for-service reimbursement system where providers are paid based on the quantity of patient visits and procedures, rather than the quality of health outcomes. At Stellar Health, we help primary care providers put patient health first. Our platform - a mix of technology, people, and analytics - supports providers at the point of care, delivering real-time patient information, activating practice staff, and empowering providers and care teams with incentives that reward the work they are already doing to keep patients healthy. Using the Stellar App, our web-based, point-of-care tool; practices receive a simple checklist of recommended actions that support the best quality care. Providers and care teams are then paid monthly for each action they complete, and Payors save money in reduced healthcare costs along the way. Stellar is a US-based Health-tech backed by Top VCs (General Atlantic, Point72, & Primary Venture Partners) with an established product & proven operating model. We’ve shown that we make a real difference for physician practices and their patients. About the position: At Stellar, the Customer Success team serves as strategic partners to our Customers, which include health plans, major health systems, and other risk-bearing entities such as ACOs. We bring our Customers and the providers who use our platform through the journey of succeeding in value based care. The Customer Success team owns the client relationship post-sale. We act as trusted advisors, defining program success (e.g., key metrics and OKRs), developing and executing strategies to maximize client value and ROI using Stellar's platform, and building long-term partnerships by demonstrating continued impact and driving towards renewals and expansions. The Customer Success Manager serves as the “General Manager” of an assigned book of business — owning the end-to-end customer success strategy, leading client relationships independently, and driving measurable outcomes across their book. This role is customer-facing, analytical, and deeply cross-functional — our team partners broadly across the full Stellar organization, working closely with our Engineering, Sales, Provider Operations, and Product teams to ensure we are effectively deploying Stellar’s technology and services. A Manager operates with a high degree of autonomy: they lead weekly and monthly client meetings, own QBR preparation and delivery, and manage internal workstreams with minimal day-to-day oversight. Reporting to the Director of Customer Success, the Manager is the primary point of leadership for their accounts on a day-to-day basis.
