Toronto, Canada HighlightTA Full time

About the Opportunity

We’re supporting a fast-scaling global tech company searching for a Senior Manager, Customer Success with a unique blend of leadership, operational design, and technical fluency. This role goes beyond people management—we're looking for a systems builder. Someone who has designed and implemented customer success infrastructure from scratch: CRM setup, automations, playbooks, processes, and performance frameworks.

You’ll own strategy, lead a team, and directly manage high-value accounts. Your mandate is to scale revenue and retention through repeatable, data-driven success models — not just one-on-one relationship building, but relationship-building at scale.

What You’ll Do

- Build and lead a high-performing Customer Success team.

- Design and implement CS systems: CRM, lifecycle playbooks, governance, automations, and customer health frameworks.

- Drive revenue via renewals, upsell, and cross-sell across a strategic customer portfolio.

- Deploy AI tools to surface insights, automate processes, and scale CS impact.

- Own and analyze churn to drive proactive retention strategies.

- Collaborate across Sales, Product, and Marketing to improve handoffs and enhance the customer journey.

- Establish scalable communication practices (e.g., onboarding, product updates, campaigns).

Who You Are

- Proven builder of end-to-end CS infrastructure — not just a user of existing systems.

- Experienced in high-touch SaaS environments with complex customer needs.

- Skilled in CRM implementation, automation strategy, and governance design.

- Hands-on with AI tools that support CS automation, insights, and workflows.

- Known for designing scalable processes that deepen customer relationships systematically.

- Adept at leading global teams and driving results through both strategy and execution.
