Description
- To support Canonical's growth, we are expanding our CSM team globally and recruiting leaders to help our team of Customer Success Managers across regions.

- You play a crucial role in proactively identifying areas of improvement and implementing process change, driving high-performing teams. You are comfortable dealing with ambiguity and quickly adapt to changes. You seek collaboration with other teams to enhance the overall customer experience.
- Your key responsibility is to analyze regional performance metrics, identify trends and opportunities for improvement, and implement changes to increase efficiency and achieve business objectives. You will work hand-in-hand with the Head of Customer Success.
- As such, we are looking for exceptional candidates with proven track records in Customer Success and an obvious passion for new technologies. Ideally, you have been a Customer Success Manager at one point in your career and naturally evolved to a leading position.
- You will enjoy this role if you are organised, persistent, analytical, diplomatic, a listener, hard-working, and determined to grow your skills and teams. As a lead, you are to provide mentoring, coaching in post-sales account management and feedback to team members.

- Customer interactions and support to your team: you resolve escalated customer issues requiring expertise or intervention. You work closely with your team members to ensure timely resolution.
- Team management: you are passionate about guiding and supporting your team members, helping them navigate complex customer situations, improve their skills, and achieve their goals. You are ready for regular performance reviews with team members. While your help in identifying areas for improvement is key, you are asked to celebrate excellence, recognise your team's achievements, and set goals for individual growth within the team.
- Cross-functional collaboration: collaboration with other departments, such as Sales, Marketing, Product development, and Support, is essential. This ensures alignment on customer needs, feedback sharing, and coordinated efforts to drive customer success. You establish trustworthy channels of communication across the board.
- Documentation and reporting: you are allowed to be creative! While building content with your team and your manager, you also ensure the changes are well documented, instilling quality and attention to detail in all you do.
What we are looking for in you:
- Excellent academic results at school and university
- Bachelor's or equivalent Degree in Business, Communication or STEM
- Knowledge and passion for Customer Success, revenue management and technology, experience in Saa S or software industries
- Track record of bringing exceptional Customer Success experience results
