Customer Success Manager

Our Customer Success Managers (CSMs) play a critical role in the ongoing management of our customer relationships. As a CSM your focus will be on ensuring that our customers are wildly successful throughout their journey with Zellis.

You'll work proactively with a key set of customer accounts with a focus on ensuring that the customer is gaining their desired business outcomes. By operating as a trusted advisor and primary contact point, you'll be responsible for the end-to-end customer experience and overall success of the relationship. You'll represent the Voice of the Customer to the internal organisation to ensure their needs are fed back to the relevant teams in the spirit of continuous improvement and ensuring success. Where the customer partnership needs to be improved you'll be required to implement and deliver on success plans to bring this back on track. By ensuring our customers are successful, it is expected that you can drive customer advocacy activities and loyalty.
