As a Customer Success Manager, you will be the primary post-sale partner for a portfolio of B2B customers. Your focus will be retention and long-term value realization — ensuring customers adopt, engage, and renew with confidence.

You are proactive, organized, and commercially savvy. You don’t wait for churn signals — you anticipate them. You don’t just manage accounts — you drive outcomes.

What will you be doing?

  • Develop strong relationships with key stakeholders, aligning on measurable success metrics and desired business outcomes

  • Monitor product usage and engagement, proactively addressing adoption gaps to ensure customers realize clear ROI

  • Lead business reviews and strategic check-ins to reinforce value, strengthen alignment, and surface growth opportunities

  • Identify and mitigate churn risk using data-driven insights, executing mitigation plans and escalating when necessary

  • Maintain clear documentation of account health, risks, and blockers while advocating for customer needs and sharing feedback internally

What skills and experience do you need?

  • 1-2+ years in Customer Success, Account Management, or a similar client-facing role in a B2B SaaS environment

  • Proven experience owning renewals and retention metrics

  • Strong commercial instincts and comfort leading contract conversations

  • Ability to interpret usage data and translate it into action

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

  • Highly organized with strong attention to detail
