About Sapiens

Sapiens International is a global provider of core software for the insurance industry, serving Property & Casualty, Life & Pensions, and Reinsurance carriers worldwide. Our Customer Success team keeps and grows our customers beyond go-live.

Job Requirements

• 5+ years in a customer-facing role (Customer Success, account management, consulting, or customer support) managing a portfolio of accounts, including relationship management and issue resolution.
• Insurance domain experience (P&C, Life & Pensions, or Reinsurance), or enterprise software serving insurers.
• A track record of building Customer Success plans and delivering measurable retention and account-health outcomes (e.g. gross retention, NPS).
• Experience running a consistent, playbook-led Customer Success motion across many accounts at once.
• Strong communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to influence, negotiate, and challenge stakeholders.
• Commercial and business acumen - able to understand and speak to customers' business drivers.
• Strong prioritisation and reporting skills; able to synthesise and communicate key insights.
• Able to work autonomously with ownership and accountability, with a design-thinking, root-cause approach to problem-solving.

What you will bring (desirable)

• Familiarity with core insurance platforms (policy administration, claims, or billing).
• Experience with Customer Success tooling and AI-assisted health monitoring.
• Experience with cloud-native or SaaS delivery and managed solutions.

Job Responsibilities

• Deliver Sapiens' Customer Success motion for your book in line with the defined framework, playbooks, and tier coverage model.
• Be the named Customer Success Manager and maintain strong customer relationships built on credibility, consistency, and value, from go-live onward at a steady cadence.
• Own account health and product adoption across the book; track and report on adoption, usage, and health metrics, and act early where an account starts to slip.
• Run a consistent, standardised review cycle and build templated Customer Success plans that connect each customer's business goals to the value they get from Sapiens.
• Protect the retention floor: identify at-risk accounts early and orchestrate and mediate escalation resolution by pulling in the right internal stakeholders.
• Orchestrate Sales, Support, Delivery, Product, and Enablement so the customer experiences one coordinated relationship, coordinating training and resources as needed.
• Identify expansion (cross-sell and upsell) opportunities aligned to the customer's strategy and pass them to Sales to progress. You own the signal, not the sale.
• Use AI-assisted monitoring and standard health triggers to run a larger book efficiently.

Scope

You own the customer's success and growth from point of sale onward. You do not carry a sales quota or close deals, run support tickets, or run implementation projects - Sales, Support, and Delivery own those. You protect retention, flag expansion, and escalte on the customer's behalf.
