Full Job Description
The Role

Securly is looking for a Director, Customer Success Operations to lead the systems, processes, and people behind our entire post-sale customer journey. You'll lead our CS Ops and Renewals function - a CS Ops Manager, a CS Ops Specialist, and a team of Renewals Specialists - and own Vitally, our Customer Success platform, as the operational backbone of the business.

This is a builder's role. Vitally has been live for about a year, and the next chapter is yours to write: deepening adoption, sharpening health scoring, automating renewals workflows, and turning good instincts into a repeatable, data-driven system that scales. You'll be the operational thought partner to CS executives - using data and process design to make sure customer growth and success directly fuel Securly's growth.

Location: Remote (U.S.) Type: Full-Time, Exempt Reports to: SVP, Customer Success
What Success Looks Like

In your first 90 days, you'll get under the hood - auditing our Vitally configuration, current CS Ops and renewals workflows, and team structure. You'll build real relationships with your team and ship your first wave of improvements: sharper health scoring, better dashboards, and a more programmatic renewals process.

By 6 months, you're driving measurable gains - better renewals efficiency, stronger forecast accuracy, and dashboards that CS and company leadership actually rely on to run the business.

By your first year, you own a mature CS Ops and Renewals function that consistently meets or exceeds retention targets, backed by a trained, accountable team and a Vitally instance that scales with Securly's growth.
What You'll Do

Lead the team
  • Hire, coach, and manage a team of a CS Ops Manager, a CS Ops Specialist, and Renewals Specialists - setting clear goals and holding the team accountable to them
  • Structure team capacity and coverage to match renewal volume and customer segmentation
  • Build a real growth path for your team, from onboarding through career development

Own the process
  • Design, implement, and continuously refine scalable playbooks that support the entire post-sale customer journey
  • Own the end-to-end renewal process - timely, accurate, and built to minimize churn
  • Design and run a programmatic renewals process suited to a high-volume, complex customer base

Turn data into decisions
  • Own customer health scoring, tracking, and measurement across the install base
  • Define and build the dashboards CS and executive leadership use to manage the business
  • Surface customer insights to Product, Support, and Sales to drive real improvements

Build the tech stack
  • Serve as the internal owner of Vitally - driving adoption, configuration, and continuous optimization
  • Identify, build, and implement Agentic AI and automation that genuinely moves the needle on CS Ops and renewals outcomes
  • Manage the broader tech stack, including integrations with Salesforce and other GTM systems
What We're Looking For
  • 3+ years leading a Customer Success Operations, Revenue Operations, or Renewals team - this is a leadership track record, not an individual-contributor background, with proven experience scaling CS tools, systems, and AI
  • Real examples of scaling a CS Ops function - taking a team, process, or system from early-stage to measurably better performance, with strong examples of building tools, systems, and process, and applying AI
  • Hands-on experience building tech, systems, and automation - you've architected workflows, integrations, or automation inside a CS platform (Vitally, Gainsight, Totango, ChurnZero, or similar) and a CRM like Salesforce or HubSpot, not just used tools someone else set up
  • Applied experience with Agentic AI and automation - you've actually built or implemented AI-driven workflows (like automated health scoring or renewals triage), not just explored the space
  • A track record of building and coaching a team, with strong data analytics skills and fluency in core SaaS metrics (GRR, NRR, churn, CLV, NPS, CSAT)
  • Strong project management skills and the ability to manage multiple cross-functional initiatives at once
  • Experience in K-12, EdTech, or education-adjacent SaaS is a strong plus
Why You'll Love Working at Securly
  • Meaningful impact - build the operational engine behind a company that helps protect millions of students
  • People-first culture - consistently recognized as a Top Place to Work
  • Remote-first flexibility - work from home with a supportive, distributed team
  • Real ownership - shape a growing platform and team, not maintain someone else's system
  • Mission-driven work - what you build directly supports student safety and wellbeing
Benefits & Perks
  • Competitive salary up to $165K with performance incentives
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave
  • Unlimited PTO, paid holidays, and a paid one-week year-end shutdown
  • $1,000 annual professional development stipend
  • Free mental health resources and Employee Assistance Program
