Lead and manage a team of Customer Success Managers handling security compliance automation for European companies.
Обязанности
- Our CSM team has grown to five Customer Success Managers, each running a book of customers through ISO 27001, SOC 2, TISAX, NIS 2 and DORA. As the team keeps growing, we're creating a dedicated Team Lead role: a manager who works alongside the CSMs every day and makes their coaching and development a priority!
Требования
- This is a player-coach role where you'll be 60-70% hands-on operating with your own book of business, and 30-40% conducting management tasks. You'll be the line manager for all CSMs and run 1:1s, feedback loops, onboarding, and provide inputs to performance reviews and career development, while keeping a reduced portfolio of your own customers (because we don't think you can coach CSMs well on work you don't do).
- You've managed or formally coached CSMs before for at least 1 year and want to keep doing it; this isn't a first step into management
- 4+ years as a Customer Success Manager in B2B SaaS, ideally with mid-market or DACH Mittelstand customers
- Fluent German and English as our CSM team works with customers in both
- Comfortable with a revenue component: you've carried an upsell or NRR target yourself and can coach others toward one
- You've built automations or AI workflows for yourself or your team, not just used chat tools, and you'd want to do the same here.
- Structured and direct in feedback; you can run a hard performance conversation without the Head of CS in the room
- You work well in a written-first remote team: clear specs and updates over meetings, high ownership, low need for synchronous oversight
Будет плюсом
- Experience in compliance, information security or GRC (ISO 27001 or TISAX in particular)
- You've built or reworked a CSM onboarding programme before
- You've worked in a fully remote team of a similar size
