You will:

• Lead, coach, and develop a high-performing CS team, owning team and regional NRR performance, customer retention, and expansion goals.

• Act as a player-coach: directly manage priority accounts, join key customer conversations, and model best-in-class success practices.

• Lead by example in complex post-sales and renewal cycles, unblocking issues, driving adoption, and identifying expansion opportunities.

• Set strategic direction for the team, aligning customer success initiatives with company goals and market trends.

• Monitor and optimize delivery quality across all accounts, ensuring consistency, excellence, and predictability in customer outcomes, implementing scalable processes that improve accuracy, visibility, and operational efficiency.

• Design and implement repeatable playbooks for renewals, upsells, and adoption; automate workflows and tools to scale team impact.

• Own the ongoing development and optimization of best practices for Commercial and Scale playbooks, ensuring consistent execution, measurable impact, and continuous refinement as the business evolves.

• Build and maintain executive-level relationships across priority accounts, serving as a strategic advisor and customer advocate in internal and external forums.

• Represent the voice of the customer in leadership discussions, influencing roadmap, operations, and revenue strategies.

• Partner with Europe GTM & cross functional leadership to align organizational objectives, drive cross-functional initiatives, and ensure cohesive execution across customer success, sales, and operations teams.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience in Customer Success or post-sales roles within SaaS, ideally some of this within UK&I accounts.

• Demonstrated technical acumen with the ability to upskill and enable the team — fostering confidence in navigating product capabilities, integrations, and data insights to strengthen customer outcomes.

• 5+ years of direct people leadership experience — managing CSMs, driving team quota, and developing talent through coaching and enablement. Passion for developing people and building a high-performance, feedback-driven culture grounded in accountability, learning, and customer impact.

• Strong player-coach mindset: comfortable managing key accounts directly while leading others to excel in their own portfolios.

• Demonstrated success in exceeding renewal, expansion, and NRR goals through effective customer engagement and strategic account management.

• Expertise in CS methodologies and best practices (e.g. success planning, adoption frameworks, ROI storytelling, executive alignment).

• Strong analytical and operational skills: adept at using data to identify performance trends, optimise workflows, and forecast outcomes.

• Strong builder mindset - you thrive in building from scratch, redefining processes and playbooks, and operating with an AI-first mindset

• Bonus: Hands-on with tools (Salesforce, Gong, Sigma, Pylon) and capable of improving data quality, visibility, and usage insights across the team.

This role is remote-first, so it can be executed from anywhere within UK&I. If you prefer, you can work from our offices in London and Dublin.
