Description du poste

At Esri Australia, customer success is about more than supporting technology. It is about understanding what our customers want to achieve, helping them expand the use of GIS across their organisations and demonstrating the lasting value of their investment.

We are seeking a Manager, Customer Success Management to lead the operational delivery and continued evolution of our Australian Customer Success Management program.

This is an influential national leadership role for someone who can bring together customer outcomes, commercial awareness, operational discipline and people leadership. You will lead an experienced team, strengthen the frameworks and playbooks that support them and help scale a customer success program that contributes to customer value, recurring revenue and long-term relationships.

About the role

Reporting to the Head of Customer Success, you will oversee the day-to-day delivery of the Australian CSM Program. You will provide direct leadership to the CSM Practice Leads and operational oversight across the broader national CSM team.

The team consists of capable, experienced professionals and your role will be to create clarity, remove barriers, provide support and enable them to perform at their best.

You will also help strengthen and scale the program by improving workflows, embedding consistent ways of working, supporting workforce planning and exploring how technology, automation, AI and customer success platforms can improve coverage and effectiveness.

In this role, you will:

• Lead and support the Australian Customer Success Management team to deliver meaningful outcomes for customers and the business.
• Provide direct leadership to the CSM Practice Leads and operational oversight across the national CSM function.
• Develop and embed consistent frameworks, processes, tools and playbooks that support effective customer success delivery.
• Help customers identify new GIS use cases and work collaboratively with Sales to progress qualified opportunities.
• Strengthen the team’s ability to capture, quantify and demonstrate the value customers receive from their GIS investment.
• Monitor and report on key program measures, including customer engagement, sentiment and health, financial performance, qualified leads and demonstrated customer value.
• Support strategic and executive-level customer engagements.
• Provide senior oversight of customer risks and escalations, determining when issues can be resolved within the team and when further escalation is required.
• Work with senior leaders on workforce planning and the continued growth and scalability of the CSM Program.
• Collaborate across the organisation and with external stakeholders to deliver a consistent and valuable customer experience.
• Foster a customer-centric culture built around growth, continuous improvement and shared accountability.

About you

You are an experienced customer-focused leader who knows how to bring out the best in a capable team.

You do not need to be the loudest person in the room. You lead with humility, recognise the expertise of others and create the conditions in which people can succeed. You are equally comfortable engaging with technical specialists, senior operational leaders, managing directors and customer executives.

You will bring:

• A bachelor’s degree in a relevant business discipline.
• At least 10 years’ experience in a customer-facing or similarly relevant role involving the operation, service or management of customer relationships or accounts.
• Strong leadership capability, ideally gained through leading experienced professionals or managers.
• Exceptional communication and influencing skills across different organisational levels.
• Strong commercial awareness and an understanding of how customer success supports sustainable business performance.
• The ability to build trusted relationships and work collaboratively across teams and stakeholder groups.
• Experience managing complex customer matters, risks and escalations.
• The ability to translate strategy into practical frameworks, priorities and ways of working.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and prioritisation skills.
• Resilience and adaptability when responding to changing priorities.
• A continuous-improvement mindset and the capacity to support transformational change.
• Program management experience would also be highly regarded.

What success looks like

• Customers are realising and demonstrating greater value from their GIS investments.
• The national CSM team has the clarity, support and tools needed to perform effectively.
• Customer risks and escalations are identified early and managed appropriately.
• Customer engagement, sentiment and health continue to strengthen.
• The CSM Program operates consistently and can scale as customer coverage grows.
• Customer success contributes to revenue expansion, recurring revenue and sustainable long-term customer relationships
