Why will you enjoy this opportunity?

Cervest has incredibly ambitious goals for 2023, and our Customer Success team is imperative to our success as we scale and sell to the world's largest and most asset-centric companies. We are already working with some of the most preeminent consulting companies in this space.

As a Customer Success Manager you will have a unique opportunity to build a career in a remote-first, category-building, fast-paced, B2B scale-up organization. 

As a company, we are a pro-diversity, highly inclusive organization, committed to bringing together people of all backgrounds and enabling them to succeed. We know that a richly diverse team will help us achieve our mission sooner.

For this role, we are looking for someone with strong commercial acumen who knows how to apply creative Customer Success strategies and tactics to support our customers. Simultaneously, you will be a voice for our customers across Cervest, sharing feedback and insights that will contribute to overall business strategy, as well as influencing commercial, product, and marketing strategies. Cervest has a very customer-centric focus, and therefore the Customer Success team interacts with almost every team across the company. We also support other teams interacting with our customers; being able to translate technical concepts across diverse skill sets and audiences is a fun and essential part of the job.

We are also looking for someone who has a passion for our mission, a proactive learning mindset, great people skills, a willingness to jump into a collaborative team environment, and the ability to work effectively in a cross-functional, collaborative, and distributed team.

• Assist the Customer Success management team with the development of customer-facing processes that will scale and adapt to our different products and services
• Build loyal customer relationships to ensure long-term client retention
• Provide the business with customer feedback at regular intervals and communicate milestones and pain points to the wider business

What is the structure and culture of the team like?

As a member of the Customer Success team, you will be deeply embedded into the commercial engine of the organization, working closely with the Sales, Marketing, and Product Marketing teams, as well as colleagues across Product Management, Engineering, Science, Legal, and our Executive Team. 

We are a distributed, remote-first company, hiring across Europe, the USA and beyond. We are looking for a candidate who is comfortable working in a fully remote setting and with a diverse team, spread across multiple time zones. This job requires minimal travel for occasional regional or global team retreats, customer meetings or events, and a variety of other opportunities, using more sustainable transport methods (we’ll help with that).

We have a strong culture of collaboration, empowerment and inclusion. We don’t have a culture of micro-management, so self-starters who are comfortable managing ambiguity thrive best at Cervest. You will instead experience a supportive culture where coaching, facilitation, and deep care are embedded into company norms.

We are a remote-first company and are hiring across the USA into the following states - New York, DC, Maryland, Texas, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

Benefits 

As a rapidly-scaling company on a mission, we are committed to ensuring that we support our team in developing in line with their aspirations and talents, as well as continuing to develop company culture alongside our values.
