Обязанности
- Abnormal AI is looking for a Director of Renewals to own the strategy, performance, and operating model for our global renewals function. Reporting to the VP of Customer Success, you will lead the renewals organization and own revenue retention across Abnormal's multi-product behavioral security platform. You will build the renewals engine that makes retention and cross-product expansion predictable at scale, set the standard for how Abnormal renews and expands its customers, and turn customer obsession into measurable retention outcomes.
- Own Abnormal's renewals strategy and operating model end to end: define the renewal motion, the segmentation approach, the playbooks, and the systems that enable the function to scale ahead with company growth.
- Lead, mentor, and develop a high-performing team of Renewal Managers/Specialists, setting clear goals and KPIs for renewal bookings, gross renewal retention, Upsell, and forecast accuracy.
- Manage and improve the full renewal lifecycle: engage early, negotiate terms, secure commitments, and collaborate with cross-functional teams (Customer Success, Sales, Ops, Finance) to ensure contract execution.
- Drive a data-driven renewal process: monitor pipeline health, identify at-risk accounts, implement preservation strategies, and report on renewal metrics (retention rates, forecast variance, etc.).
- Partner with Customer Success and Sales to identify expansion opportunities during renewal engagements and align on a joint renewal-and-expand motion.
- Develop and mature forecasting models for renewal bookings, churn, and NARR, presenting updates to senior leadership and driving improvements in predictability.
- Manage escalations and high-visibility renewal situations; support Renewal Managers/Specialists in complex negotiations or large-scale renewals.
- Stay current with SaaS licensing, pricing models, contract terms, and market trends in the email security / cybersecurity industry to ensure competitiveness and contract health.
