About IRIS
IRIS is harnessing the science of sound, dramatically improving how people experience audio across all digital platforms. Since launching in 2018, IRIS has developed a suite of patented products that leverage decades of research into the effects of sound on the brain, prioritising focus, productivity, and wellness for all. By harnessing the science of sound, IRIS dramatically improves how people experience audio and communicate.
Our flagship products, IRIS Clarity and IRIS SDK, use cutting-edge AI-driven technology to improve customer calls, and are proven to drive compliance, agent focus, productivity, and customer experience.
Born out of our work in Formula One, the IRIS Clarity desktop application addresses a clear need in the CCaaS market, with additional markets now opening up that present significant opportunities across enterprise, notably retail, BPO, digital healthcare, utilities, and financial services. Meanwhile, the IRIS SDK packages up our latest and greatest AI noise cancellation models, offering third-party CCaaS, UCaaS, and other comms platforms a powerful value-added feature that solves a key industry problem.
The Role
IRIS is now 7 years old, and we continue to grow at a pace, bringing our groundbreaking audio enhancement products to the world.
We're hiring our first dedicated Customer Success Manager to own a portfolio of mainly mid-market accounts, with some enterprise customers, driving retention, adoption, and growth across both our IRIS Clarity and IRIS SDK products. You will be a proactive, relationship-driven professional who takes genuine ownership of your accounts, from onboarding through to renewal and expansion.
This role suits someone who is diligent, self-driven, and a team player. While you'll have clear ownership of your portfolio, working collaboratively is just as important in this role. That means partnering with an Account Executive on an expansion opportunity, looping in Solutions Engineers on a technical escalation, or working closely with the Head of Customer Success to keep improving how our Customer Success operating model works as we grow.
The foundations of Customer Success at IRIS have already been built; the playbooks, processes, and systems that this role will run on day one. What we need now is someone who takes that and keeps building: spotting what's working, improving what isn't, and pushing the function forward as we scale. This is a role for someone we can hand real ownership to, not someone who needs the answer handed to them first.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will be a clear communicator, comfortable running strategic conversations with senior stakeholders, and equally comfortable getting into the details of product adoption and usage data. To be truly successful in this role, you'll need to demonstrate a track record of driving retention and growth outcomes, not just relationship management.
