• Monitor performance metrics and provide regular feedback, recognition, and support to drive individual and team success

Scoping & Strategy

• Design and document scalable, repeatable onboarding playbooks, workflows, and best practices to enable consistent delivery at scale
• Maintain and optimise customer health scoring models to proactively identify and address churn risks, and develop targeted strategies to improve retention and increase customer lifetime value (LTV)

Cross Team Collaboration

• Collaborate cross-functionally with other teams (e.g., Product, Sales, Marketing) to ensure a seamless, customer-centric approach across the business
