  • Stay hands-on with strategic accounts while the team scales, including personally owning customer relationships where needed
  • Hire and onboard the additional CSMs needed as the EMEA team grows

  • Lead a distributed team across multiple countries and time zones
  • Run a consistent operating cadence across forecasting, account health, and structured risk reviews
  • Build repeatable Customer Success motions across onboarding, QBRs, adoption, retention, and expansion
  • Use customer and team insights to identify risks early, raise issues proactively, and continuously improve how the team operates
