We are looking for a proactive Outbound Customer Success Manager who will own post-sales customer engagement, ensure smooth adoption of our platform, and drive long-term value for clients.

Responsibilities
- Proactively engage with customers through scheduled calls, emails, and check-ins to ensure product adoption and satisfaction.
- Develop a deep understanding of the client's business objectives and align our solution to help them achieve measurable outcomes.

- Drive onboarding, training, and enablement programs to ensure customers are confident using the product.
- Act as a customer advocate internally, providing product feedback to the product and engineering teams.
- Create tailored success plans and track progress against defined KPIs.
- Identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities by uncovering additional use cases and working with the sales team.
- Maintain detailed records of customer interactions, renewals, and expansion opportunities in CRM.
- Consistently achieve renewal, retention, and NRR (Net Revenue Retention) goals.
Requirements
- 2-5 years of experience in Customer Success, BPO, Account Management, or Client Engagement, preferably in SaaS or B2B tech.
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills with a proactive, consultative mindset.
- Proven ability to manage a portfolio of accounts with outbound engagement strategies.
- Experience working with CRM tools (Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho) and Customer Success platforms (Gainsight, Totango, Planhat).
- Ability to analyze customer usage data and create actionable insights.
- Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple clients simultaneously.
- Entrepreneurial, customer-obsessed, and comfortable in a fast-paced startup environment.
- Experience in HR-Tech / SaaS / AI-driven products.
- Exposure to international customer accounts (US, EU, APAC).
- Track record of hitting or exceeding retention/expansion targets.
