I use call reviews, account-plan reviews, and regular one-on-ones to identify skill gaps, then provide targeted coaching and reusable playbooks while holding clear accountability for results. Describe a time you scaled a high-touch enterprise customer process without diminishing the customer experience. I mapped the customer journey to identify repeated high-effort activities and the moments that truly required bespoke engagement. I standardized the repeatable work through templates, success plans, health signals, and operating cadences, while reserving senior CSM time for strategic risks, technical complexity, and executive alignment. How would you partner with Product and Support when strategic customers report recurring technical friction? I would consolidate qualitative feedback with data on impact, affected segments, frequency, and renewal risk. I would create a shared prioritization forum with clear owners, communicate realistic next steps to customers, and ensure the CSM team has interim guidance and escalation paths while product changes are evaluated. What metrics would you use to evaluate the health and effectiveness of an enterprise Customer Success organization? I would balance outcome metrics such as gross retention, net retention, renewal forecast accuracy, adoption, and expansion readiness with operational measures such as onboarding milestones, risk identification timing, executive engagement, and CSM capacity. The metrics should be segmented by customer cohort and used to guide action rather than as a reporting exercise alone. How do you support CSMs when a complex enterprise customer needs a solution that does not fit an existing playbook? I help the CSM clarify the customer’s underlying business objective, technical constraints, stakeholders, and urgency before deciding whether to adapt an existing approach or design a new one. I stay involved in high-risk situations, bring in the right cross-functional partners, document what was learned, and convert successful patterns into scalable guidance for the broader team. Opportunity details ## About this role. Hi, I’m[Loren](https://www.linkedin.com/in/lfoseid/), the Head of Strategic Customer Success here at Ashby. My team is dedicated to building deep, consultative partnerships within the Enterprise space. One of our operating principles is “Aim High” and I’m excited to find a Manager of Strategic Customer Success who can identify gaps, drive meaningful change, and bring a creative vision to this segment as we scale. In this role, you’ll lead a team of CSMs who serve Ashby’s largest and most complex customers. A key part of this role is helping your team navigate the nuances of enterprise partnerships — building the depth of engagement these customers expect while identifying what’s working and translating it into repeatable approaches that scale across a sophisticated book of business. You’ll partner closely with other leaders across Product, Implementation, Support, and Contract Management. ### About the Role As the Manager of Strategic Customer Success, you’ll lead a tenured team of skilled CSMs while helping shape how Ashby delivers value as we scale upmarket. You’ll be the team’s coach, sounding board, and champion — helping CSMs grow, building systems that scale, and advocating cross-functionally — all in service of helping customers drive exceptional outcomes with a rapidly evolving product. As our Manager of Strategic Customer Success, you’ll: * Lead and coach a team of CSMs who serve as the primary point of contact for customers post-onboarding and throughout the partnership * Uplevel team performance through 1:1 coaching, skill development, and operational rigor * Drive process optimization across the customer journey — with a particular focus on adoption and optimization * Advocate for the CSM team cross-functionally across Product, Support, Sales, RevOps, and Contract Management * Balance building scalable process with delivering the bespoke experiences our most complex customers expect * Be a key voice in evolving how we deliver consistent, high-quality outcomes for our Enterprise customers ### Role requirements: * Team Leadership & Coaching: You have experience leading and developing Customer Success Managers in a SaaS environment. You know how to foster a culture of empathy, accountability, and continuous growth. * Technical Acumen: You’re able to get into the technical details of the product alongside your direct reports to help drive customer solutions, and you have experience coaching teams that support a technically complex product. * Customer Journey Expertise: You understand the enterprise customer lifecycle and have helped improve onboarding, adoption, and retention through thoughtful, repeatable approaches. * Up Market Motion: You have worked with enterprise customers and scaled their use case as they grow in complexity. * Operational Mindset: You’ve helped implement and improve team processes, and you bring a structured lens to scaling what works while staying adaptable. * Cross-functional Collaboration: You’re comfortable partnering with teams like Sales, Product, and Support to align around customer needs and elevate the experience. * Problem-Solving Orientation: You don’t rely on “what worked before” — you’re thoughtful, pragmatic, and eager to find solutions that fit the unique needs of your team and customers. * Data-Driven: You are comfortable using data and metrics to drive decision-making, continually improving both the team and customer experience. * Customer-First Thinking: You have a deep understanding of B2B customer needs and have a history of ensuring outstanding support experiences. * Lifecycle Awareness: You understand the full customer lifecycle, and know how to effectively partner with cross-functional teams to ensure strong handoffs and sustained success. ### You’ll Be a Great Fit If You: * You demonstrate clear communication. You ask clarifying questions with precision and can distill complex concepts into simple, actionable themes. * You listen deeply. You see your role as both an advocate for the Customer Success team and a voice of the customer to internal stakeholders — ensuring our product roadmap continues to evolve in the right direction. * You advocate for your team. You engage actively in resourcing and headcount planning conversations and bring a clear point of view. * You love to coach. You see every teaching moment as an opportunity and are excited to help your team grow and develop. * You are a structured problem solver. You thrive at solving complex challenges with innovative, scalable solutions. * You know process matters. You are eager to improve processes and workflows to enhance efficiency and efficacy. * Your peers describe you as detail oriented. You take pride in strong internal operations. ### You Might Not Be a Fit If: * Getting into the details isn’t your thing. Call shadowing, hands-on troubleshooting, and doing the work alongside your direct reports isn’t appealing. * Getting deep in the product and being a technical resource for your direct reports is not interesting to you. * You’re more comfortable generating broad ideas than owning their execution. * You prefer established, stable processes and find frequent change frustrating. * You want to build something once and move on, rather than continuously iterate and improve on it. * You primarily work with simple products, not highly configurable complex products * You have not spent the last few years leading an upmarket Customer Success team in a growing B2B SaaS business ### About Ashby We’re building the next generation of enterprise software, and we’re starting with a suite of products that help talent leaders, recruiters, and hiring managers run their hiring process significantly better.
