Position Overview
Ashby is seeking a passionate Customer Success Manager (CSM) to join our High Touch Customer Success team. This role focuses on shaping and scaling an exceptional customer experience for our mid-market and enterprise clients. You will be instrumental in onboarding, training, and supporting the adoption of Ashby, driving improved product adoption and customer health. As a CSM, you will become a product and domain expert, enabling our customers to leverage Ashby for hiring excellence.
Role Requirements
- Experience: Minimum of two years of customer success experience in B2B SaaS, with a proven track record in implementing and supporting complex technologies.
- Customer Management: Experience managing diverse customer sizes and books of business within the mid-market segment.
- Collaboration: Proven ability to work effectively with cross-functional stakeholders across Sales, Marketing, Product, and Operations.
- Product Expertise: Demonstrated passion for becoming a product and industry expert, with experience tailoring training and product walkthroughs to address specific customer challenges.
You Should Apply If You:
- Communicate Clearly: Demonstrate mastery of clear communication, asking precise questions, and explaining complex concepts simply, avoiding jargon.
- Listen Actively: Excel at listening and serving as the voice of the customer to internal stakeholders, influencing the product roadmap.
- Enjoy Teaching: Find opportunities to teach and guide users, from experienced data analysts to new recruiters unfamiliar with SaaS tools.
- Drive Renewals & Processes: Are motivated by driving renewals and crafting repeatable processes to support go-to-market team scalability.
- Are Detail-Oriented: Peers describe you as detail-oriented, taking pride in crisp follow-up emails and accurate, real-time CRM updates.
- Move Fast & Prioritize: Leverage tools and technology to maximize efficiency, comfortable managing a wide range of customers and prioritizing effectively.
- Have Recruiting Experience (Preferred): Previous experience as a recruiter, hiring manager, or interviewer is a plus, as it aids in understanding customer needs and accelerating the onboarding process.

Why You Shouldn't Apply:
- You prefer managing a focused book of business with fewer than 20 accounts.
- You are interested in managing customer accounts with infrequent and well-defined touchpoints.
- You are exclusively focused on commercial CSM roles driven by variable compensation. While revenue retention is a key metric, Ashby prioritizes adoption and engagement. Our Contract Managers handle renewal negotiations and upsells, and this role does not include variable pay, aligning with our strategy to hire product-oriented CSMs.
- You are hesitant to engage deeply with customers on nuanced product details.
