Are you a seasoned
Saas operations guru? Are you hands on? Do you love to dig into metrics
to find insights others might have missed? Are you obsessed with
optimizing everything you do? Can you promote a culture of efficiency
while keeping the people around you happy? If so, we might just have
your dream job on our Customer Success team.
About the role
Our Customer Success team is
structured in 5 pillars: Customer Support, Education, Customer
Experience, Account Management, and Sales. Historically each team has
been responsible for their own metrics, processes, and tools. At the
scale our Customer Success team has reached (26 of us now with plans to
be over 40 by the end of 2017), we feel the need to implement a
centralized and specialized Operations team, which would support each
pillar with their data, processes, and tools requirements. By
supporting all 5 pillars you will have a holistic view of the customer
journey and will identify ways that each pillar can work better
together.
You will be reporting directly to the
Director of Customer Success, and will have the opportunity to build a
team of Operational experts to support our growing Customer Success
team.
