• Risk Mitigation: Proactively identify at-risk customers and collaborate with Customer Success, Support, and Sales teams to develop tailored solutions that address their needs and ensure renewal.
• Collaborate with the Customer Success Organization: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including Customer Success, Services, and Sales, to optimize customer retention, adoption, and satisfaction.
• Data-Driven Strategy: Utilize analytics to monitor renewal trends, forecast outcomes, and inform decisions, ensuring that strategies are informed by data and tailored to the specific dynamics of the APAC market.
• Operational Excellence: Ensure that renewal processes are streamlined and scalable, working with internal stakeholders to drive operational efficiency, compliance, and adherence to pricing strategies.
• Strategic Leadership: Own the development of the APAC renewal sales strategy, aligning with global objectives and ensuring that the team's efforts support both customer retention and growth initiatives.

• 7+ years of experience in sales, customer success, or renewals, with at least 3 years in a leadership role.
• Background in business intelligence or data analytics software.
• Experience working in a global, matrixed organization.
• Proven track record of driving GRR and exceeding renewal targets, particularly in a subscription-based model within the APAC region.
• Experience leading customer transitions to cloud/SaaS environments and familiarity with AI-driven solutions.
• Ability to identify and drive growth opportunities within accounts while effectively managing and mitigating renewal risk.
• Strong team leadership skills, with a focus on coaching and developing a high-performing team.
