• Reporting & Impact: Drive a clear reporting framework to track program progress, attrition risk mitigation impact, influenced attrition savings and customer health scores.

• Executive Presence: Regularly present findings, key metrics, and strategic recommendations to senior leadership.

What You’ll Bring

• Experience: 7+ years of proven experience in Customer Success, Renewals, or Retention-focused roles within an enterprise SaaS environment.

• Program Leadership: Demonstrated ability to build and scale large-scale, cross-functional programs and influence results without direct authority.

• Commercial Skills: Proven ability to understand the commercial aspects of customer rescue missions and performance management of funnels

• Technical Familiarity: Hands-on experience with the Salesforce platform and ecosystem is preferred.
