Sr. Customer Success Manager
Avoma
About the Role
At Avoma, Customer Success is not about managing accounts – it’s about owning customer outcomes at scale.
As a Senior Customer Success Manager, you will operate as a strategic partner, systems builder, and AI-enabled operator responsible for ensuring customers achieve measurable business results using Avoma. You will leverage data, automation, and AI to proactively drive adoption, expansion, and retention – while shaping how Customer Success scales as a function.

Run high-impact business reviews (QBRs/EBRs) focused on ROI and strategic outcomes – not activity
Act as a trusted advisor to executive stakeholders
4. Be the Voice of the Customer
Translate customer conversations, usage patterns, and feedback into actionable product insights
Influence product, GTM, and positioning using structured, data-backed input
Identify patterns across customers to inform scalable improvements

You take pride in your craft – whether it’s a QBR, onboarding experience, or internal playbook, you aim to make it exceptional, not just sufficient

You act like an owner – deeply accountable for customer outcomes, not just tasks
