Description

The Customer Success Manager (CSM) at InformData is a critical member of our Client Success team, responsible for driving consistent client value realization through disciplined execution, proactive partnership, and data-informed engagement. This role owns the day-to-day client relationship, ensuring adoption aligns with defined business outcomes and that risks and growth signals are identified early.

Success in this role is defined by consistent execution, strong client and internal partnership, early risk identification, and high-quality internal coordination, rather than reactive support or relationship management alone.

• Identify early warning signs across usage trends, engagement patterns, and client sentiment
• Maintain visibility into open issues and unresolved concerns
• Escalate risks with clear context, supporting data, and recommended mitigation steps
• Partner with AEs and internal teams to proactively address risks before renewal impact
• Monitor and communicate account health consistently

• Identify upsell signals based on usage trends and client conversations
• Assess and articulate client readiness indicators (operational, stakeholder, and timing)
• Coordinate structured CSQL handoffs to AEs with clear context and supporting insights
• Support early-stage opportunity conversations by providing adoption and value context
• Maintain alignment with AEs on account growth opportunities

• Act as the central source of truth for client context, including goals, usage, risks, and history
• Coordinate internal stakeholders for client meetings, QBRs, and initiatives
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date documentation across systems (HubSpot, Account Plans, Teams Channels)
• Communicate client updates, risks, and wins clearly across internal teams
• Ensure continuity and alignment across Customer Success, Sales, Product, and Operations

• Partner with AEs on account health, renewal readiness, and expansion signals
• Work with Customer Experience Partners (CEPs) to ensure issue resolution and feedback loops
• Align with internal teams to coordinate proactive client engagement and mitigation strategies
• Support QBR preparation through data gathering, insight development, and internal alignment
