As a Customer Success Manager, Senior Manager (CSM Senior Manager), you will serve as a named resource and partner for Salesforce's HLS customer organizations. You are a trusted advisor, forging deep relationships with your customers and account teams, maintaining an awareness of key events, needs, potential risks, and value drivers.

You will act as a point of contact for any major customer incidents, being responsible for managing expectations and communications through the resolution of such incidents.

These activities will enable you to proactively set the customer up for success through optimization of the platform, with special care during critically important peak events. This will require deep technical knowledge of the Salesforce platform, and the ability to work closely across internal and external teams to provide a unified Signature experience.

    • Acting as an advisor to your customers for the adoption of new features of Salesforce's annual release schedules and identifying potential challenges and risks to your customer's implementation.
  • Communicate the value of Signature Success. Be accountable for ensuring all collaborators understand this value so that customers continue to renew Signature Success.
  • Act as an advocate for customers during the triage and resolution of high severity cases to assist with the timely resolution of these issues.
  • The CSM may be required for occasional travel to customer sites and may need to be available for some after-hour or weekend coverage depending on the customer's need.

  • Salesforce Certifications (AI Specialist, Administrator, Platform App Builder, Sales Cloud Consultant, Service Cloud Consultant, Data Cloud Consultant).
  • 4+ years of experience in management consulting services.
  • Experience working with Enterprise-level customers.
  • Exceptional communication and presentation skills with demonstrated ability to communicate and influence effectively at all levels of the organization, including executive and C-level.
  • Skills for both analyzing technical concepts and translating them into business terms and for mapping business requirements into technical features.
  • Ability to explain complex technical concepts in business-friendly terms to customers, then explain customer needs to internal partners.
  • Knowledge of software development process and design methodologies.
  • Experience leading efforts of cross-functional teams to facilitate resolution or disposition of customer needs or projects.


Preferred Requirements
  • Knowledge of modern cloud data platforms (Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, RedShift) and AI tools (Python, R, Jupyter).
