In a world where digital channels are saturated, we're building the infrastructure that makes in-person GTM measurable, scalable, and revenue-driving. Our mission is simple: help companies around the world turn in-person events into a measurable & scalable growth channel.
About the Role
We're looking for a seasoned Director of Customer Success to lead the post-sale customer experience across our growing customer base. This is a critical leadership role within our unified Revenue org. You'll own the full customer lifecycle from onboarding through renewal, driving measurable value, expansion, and long-term retention. You'll manage a team of Customer Success Managers and oversee our Customer Support function, ensuring every customer touchpoint reflects the quality and impact we promise.
What You’ll Own
Lead and develop a team of CSMs, and Support Specialists setting performance standards, coaching, and building a high-accountability, customer-obsessed culture.
Own the full post-sale customer lifecycle: onboarding, adoption, value delivery, expansion, and renewal with direct accountability for GRR, CSAT, and other core metrics.
Establish and iterate on scalable CS playbooks, segmentation models, and engagement frameworks that align to customer outcomes and product usage signals.
Oversee the Customer Support function, ensuring SLA adherence, resolution quality, and a feedback loop back into Product and Engineering.
Partner closely with Sales, Marketing, and Product as part of the Revenue org — aligning on ICP, pipeline health, and customer stories that fuel growth.
Build and maintain executive-level relationships with strategic accounts, stepping in as an escalation point and executive sponsor when needed.
Help to define and own the CS team's OKRs, reporting cadences, and health scoring methodology; present insights and business reviews to the leadership team.
Required Experience
