Our Team Chief Operating Office (COO) Customer Success Management (CSM)

Our Team Chief Operating Office (COO) Customer Success Management (CSM) enables the successful delivery and adoption of strategic themes across DWS. The function acts as the link between business, technology, operations and enabling functions, ensuring that ideas translate into measurable business value. Through stakeholder engagement, governance, and execution support, COO CSM accelerates transformation, innovation, and operational excellence for DWS. COO CSM is a core pillar of DWS' target operating model, bringing together business, product, engineering and enabling functions to accelerate the path from opportunity identification to scalable business outcomes. The CSM CFO Co-Lead plays a key role in enabling the successful delivery, adoption and value realization of strategic AI initiatives across DWS.

Within this scope the CSM Co-lead will act as facilitator to translate previously defined and prioritized use cases to engineering demand to test the feasibility. Once the use case has been translated into a prototype by the CSM Engineering Team, you continue acting as sparring partner to the CFO Co-Lead and CTO during scalability phase. The role creates alignment across senior stakeholders, technology teams and control functions to accelerate delivery and unlock the full potential of AI for DWS.
