Shape how the CS team thinks about and prepares for risks it hasn't encountered yet## ## ****Operational Excellence***** Share account patterns and insights with your CPX team and AE partners to build collective knowledge of what works across the organization, and lead the development of team-wide practices that make excellent execution repeatable* Orchestrate specialists across Solution Success, Product Success, Data Management, Support, and other functions on your most complex, multi-location accounts, and set the standard for how the broader organization coordinates specialist engagement so it feels seamless to the customer## ## ****Mentorship & Organizational Impact***** Partner with CS leadership to shape how the function evolves, including methodology, automation and efficiency, and best practices, so your impact extends beyond your own book of business# ****What You'll Need****Minimum Qualifications* 10+ years in B2B SaaS Customer Success, Account Management, or Consulting* Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience## ## Preferred Qualifications* A track record of retaining and growing multi-stakeholder enterprise accounts across multiple renewal cycles, including experience leading the most difficult renewals and negotiations* Commercial instincts and the ability to build a business case that resonates with buyers and navigate complex renewal conversations at the highest level* The ability to read adoption and health data, identify what matters, and translate it into a clear account narrative and action plan that drives decisions at the executive level* Exceptional communication skills across organizational levels, from end users to department leaders to C-suite executives* Experience leading or coordinating cross-functional work without direct authority, bringing together the right people across Sales, Support, Product, and other teams to drive outcomes for your accounts* A demonstrated history of developing other CS professionals, whether through formal mentorship, deal coaching, or contributing to team practices* CRM discipline that makes your forecasts reliable, your work visible, and your accounts transferable# ****Travel Requirements & Working Conditions***** Willingness to travel up to 20% for team and corporate meetings, fostering relationships and representing company interests* Reliable internet access for any period of time working remotely, as we embrace flexible work arrangements**How You’ll Be Rewarded** Salary range in the US: $143,000.00 - $240,000.00 A discretionary bonus typically paid annually Restricted Stock Units granted at time of hire 401(k) match and comprehensive employee benefits packageThe salary range represents the low and high end of the salary range for this job in the US.
