Sr. Customer Success Manager

Dallas, TX, United States

Job Description:

As a Senior CSM, you’ll be the key relationship manager for a book of business holding new and existing complex hosting and colocation customers.

Ultimately responsible for customer satisfaction and retention, you’ll achieve this through a variety of touchpoints and activities. From onboarding, to building success plans, proactive outreaches, to running Executive Business Reviews, owning risk mitigation, and everything in between. In order to build deep relationships and understanding of our customer’s desired outcomes, CSMs are engaged in all phases of the customer lifecycle.

You’ll work closely with day-to-day personnel up through decision makers and executive level contacts. Internally, you’ll work cross departmentally with sales, support, marketing, engineering, implementation, and more – to ensure our customers achieve success.

Your success in the role will come from building relationships internally and externally, strong time management skills, technical acumen (colo, cloud, and networking solutions), curiosity to uncover desired outcomes, educating customers on the Flexential portfolio, and execution against committed success plans.

At Flexential, we’re passionate about our customer’s success and constantly elevating the way we help them achieve that. We’re looking for CSMs that are just as passionate about the CX as well as our industry. In return, you’ll find a work environment that is challenging but fun, goal oriented but agile, and most importantly focused on helping YOU be successful.
