Customer Success Management to lead the team that manages
HighLevel’s largest and most strategic US-based customers. In this
role, you will lead a team of managers and CSMs who collectively
own a portfolio of top accounts, who drive retention, focus on
expansion, and adoption of key products. You will design and
operationalize the playbooks, operating cadence, and talent
strategy needed to deliver a best-in-class experience for high
value customers, while scaling with growth. This is a highly
visible, high-impact role for a leader who loves working directly
with customers, coaching teams, and managing a multi-million-dollar
book of business. What You’ll Be Doing: Lead, coach, and develop a
high-performing team of CSM Managers and Senior CSM ICs, setting
clear expectations, goals, and development plans. Own hiring,
onboarding, performance management, and career progression for the
Enterprise CSM team. Build a culture of accountability,
customer-first thinking, and collaboration with adjacent teams
(Implementation, Support, Product, Sales, RevOps). Own team
outcomes for a defined portfolio of HighLevel’s top Enterprise
accounts (e.g., largest agencies, brands, and strategic partners).
Ensure the team executes regular executive business reviews (QBRs /
EBRs), value realization plans, and multi-threaded relationships
across customer stakeholders (C-level, operations, marketing,
sales, IT). Oversee renewal and expansion strategy within the
segment; partner closely with Sales/Account Management on
commercial motions while your team leads value and adoption. Set
and manage targets for GRR, NRR, product adoption, and CSAT/NPS
across the Enterprise book of business. Use data (health scores,
product usage, support signals, billing/cancel reasons) to
proactively identify risk, prioritize actions, and drive systematic
“save” and “grow” plays. Champion adoption of HighLevel’s
AI-powered features (including Employee AI and
conversation/automation tools) as core levers for value and
stickiness. Design and continuously refine Enterprise CSM playbooks
across the customer lifecycle (onboarding transition, adoption,
maturity, renewal, expansion). Define team operating cadence: 1:1s,
pipeline and risk reviews, QBR prep, segment reviews, and
cross-functional cadences with Product, Support, and RevOps.
Standardize best practices for discovery, success planning,
stakeholder mapping, and outcome tracking, while leaving room for
CSM judgment on strategic accounts. Act as the voice of the
customer internally, translating feedback into clear, prioritized
asks for Product, Engineering, and Support. Collaborate with RevOps
and Finance to forecast retention/expansion, validate models, and
align incentive plans with Enterprise outcomes. Monitor trends in
cancellations, product usage, and support volume for top high value
accounts; lead initiatives to close gaps or remove friction. Keep a
pulse on industry best practices in Customer Success, bringing new
ideas and frameworks into HighLevel’s Customer Success org. Roll up
your sleeves to join strategic customer calls or escalations where
executive sponsorship is needed. What You’ll Bring: 8 years in B2B
SaaS in Customer Success, Account Management, or a related
customer-facing role. 3 years leading and coaching teams, including
managing Managers and senior individual contributors; experience
building or scaling Enterprise CS teams strongly preferred. Proven
track record managing a portfolio of Enterprise and top accounts
with meaningful ARR and complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
Experience in martech, CRM, agency platforms, or adjacent
categories is a plus. Strong people leader: you know how to set
direction, give clear feedback, and grow high-performing CSMs and
Managers. Executive presence and credibility with C-level and
VP-level stakeholders; comfortable driving strategic conversations
about growth, ROI, and transformation. Data-driven operator who
understands SaaS metrics (NRR, GRR, TTV, product adoption, etc.)
and uses them to run the business. Excellent communication skills,
both written and verbal; able to distill complex topics into simple
narratives for customers and internal stakeholders. Comfortable
operating in a fast-paced, high-growth, remote-first environment
with evolving processes and priorities. Familiarity with CRM and CS
platforms (e.g., Salesforce/HubSpot, Gainsight/ChurnZero or
similar), plus collaboration tools such as Google Workspace, Zoom,
and Slack. Prior experience with HighLevel or similar vertical
marketing/agency platforms is a plus. How We’ll Measure Success: In
your first 12–18 months, success will look like: Improved GRR and
NRR across the Enterprise segment, with clear playbooks and leading
indicators. A high-performing CSM leadership bench, with clear
roles, coverage models, and development paths. Increased adoption
of AI and key strategic product lines across top accounts. Strong
cross-functional alignment with Sales, Product, Support, and RevOps
around Enterprise strategy and execution. Consistent, high-quality
QBRs/EBRs and executive relationships across the top tier of
HighLevel customers. The salary range for this position is $118000-
$156000 annually. Equal Employment Opportunity Information The
