Full Job Description
About the team

Commercial Success is the engine behind Bubble's revenue retention and expansion. The team owns Net Revenue Retention (NRR), Gross Revenue Retention (GRR), and agency revenue across our Account Management, Customer Success, and Partner Success functions. We don't react to customer behavior - we influence it, through proactive, intelligence-driven motions that turn customer signals into commercial action.

About the role

As Senior Manager, Commercial Success, you'll lead the team executing on expansion, retention, and agency revenue. You'll drive two core motions: the Account Management upgrade motion (moving our strongest Standard customers to Enterprise) and the Customer Success lifecycle (land, expand, renew). You'll manage Account Managers, Customer Success Managers, and Partner Success, and you'll partner closely with Technical Success, Success Operations, and Product. You'll report directly to the VP of Success.

This would be a great opportunity for you if:
  • You're energized by contributing to revenue retention and expansion metrics
  • You like building playbooks and operating rhythms, not just running them
  • You're excited to lead a multi-function team through a period of rapid evolution
  • You believe the best commercial teams shape customer behavior rather than respond to it


In this role, you'll:
  • Drives NRR, GRR, and agency revenue goals for the commercial segment
  • Lead and develop the Account Management, Customer Success, and Partner Success teams
  • Execute and refine the AM upgrade motion (Standard 12 Enterprise): identification from billing signals, research-backed outreach, discovery, and warm AM12CSM handoff
  • Own the CSM lifecycle: onboarding (0-60 days), steady-state check-ins and QBRs, expansion to CSQL threshold, and renewal plays segmented by health (green/yellow/red)
  • Partner with Technical Success to ensure complex accounts are scoped, de-risked, and technically healthy
  • Work with Success Operations to translate intelligence and risk signals into commercial action
  • Deliver pipeline, forecast, and retention reporting to senior leadership, driving accountability and surfacing risks and opportunities in real time.


Qualifications:
  • 6+ years in customer success, account management, or commercial roles, with 3+ years managing teams
  • A track record of owning a retention or expansion metric (NRR, GRR, or similar)
  • Experience building or scaling commercial playbooks and operating cadences
  • Strong analytical skills and comfort working from data and customer signals
  • Excellent verbal and written communication, and the ability to influence cross-functionally
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, ambiguous, high-growth environment
