About the Role
Kustomer is hiring a Strategic Customer Success Manager to join our Customer Success team. The Customer Success team is responsible for owning the post-sale customer relationship, ensuring every client achieves real, measurable value and outcomes from the Kustomer platform.
At Kustomer, we take our clients' experiences seriously, and that starts with the team built to champion them. As a CSM, you'll be the connective tissue between our customers and everything Kustomer has to offer: from our AI-powered automation and intelligent workflows to the insights that help support teams operate smarter and faster. You won't just be managing accounts – you'll be helping some of the world's most customer-obsessed brands transform how they interact with their customers.
From the moment our Implementations team onboards a client, you'll take the lead, deepening the relationship, accelerating product adoption, and ensuring customers are unlocking the full power of our AI-native platform. You'll own renewals, expansions in partnership with our Sales team and everything in between, and your impact will be felt directly in the outcomes our customers achieve.
We're looking for candidates comfortable with in-person collaboration at our London office roughly once a week.
You'll be responsible for:
- Managing the end-to-end customer relationship post-sale from collaborating with the Implementation team on onboarding, to aligning with our executive team, conducting business reviews, driving product expansions, and owning renewal negotiations.
- Driving product adoption so customers see real, tangible value, including call shadowing with end users to understand how they work, identifying opportunities where AI and automation can reduce effort and improve outcomes, and educating customers on best practices.
- Understanding each customer's KPIs and business goals, and partnering with them to achieve those outcomes using Kustomer's products and AI capabilities.
- Influencing the future of the Kustomer platform by funneling customer feedback to the Product organization while proactively helping customers understand how we’re working towards solutions that exceed their expectations.
- Acting as the internal voice of the customer, quarterbacking any required communication with other team members, championing your own customers’ needs, and managing escalations with urgency and care.
- Partnering with Technical Account Managers to help customers implement new products and features, including AI-powered capabilities that drive efficiency and personalization.
- Expanding our list of referenceable customers and building the kind of relationships that lead to genuine advocacy.
- Traveling approximately 25% of the time to build deep, high-impact customer relationships in person.
