Job description

Luxury Presence is building the AI growth platform for real estate. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and other top investors, we're a Series C company that has hit $100M in annual recurring revenue. More than 90,000 real estate professionals, including over 30% of the WSJ Real Trends top 100 agents in the United States, use us to run and grow their business.

Why This Role Matters

Retention is how a subscription business compounds. Having crossed $100M in ARR, Luxury Presence's Client Success organization sits at a pivotal moment: a large and growing client base, a strong CSM team already in place, and a real opportunity to translate great client outcomes into durable, expanding revenue.

We're looking for a Director of Client Success to lead our CSM organization in Austin. You will lead a team of CSM managers and their CSMs, own the gross and net retention numbers, and build the operating model that lets us keep clients successful at scale. This is a builder's seat. You'll shape how the team is structured, how we score client health, how we run renewals and expansion, and how we coach a team to a consistently high bar.

You must be AI-forward. We expect our leaders to use AI and automation to extend team capacity, deepen client coverage, and make sharper decisions from data.

What You'll Own

Retention and Expansion

• Own gross revenue retention and net revenue retention for the CSM book
• Build and run the renewal and at-risk motions that protect recurring revenue
• Partner with the team to grow upsell and expansion revenue across the base
• Own a reliable retention and expansion forecast leadership can trust

Team Leadership

• Lead, hire, and develop a team of CSM managers and their CSMs
• Set clear targets and a coaching cadence so every rep knows the bar and how they're tracking
• Manage performance directly, developing top performers and moving strugglers into better standing or out of the role
• Build a high-ownership, low-ego culture that clients and teammates want to work with

Operating Model and Systems

• Establish segmented coverage so the right clients get the right level of attention
• Build a client health scoring model and the playbooks that act on it
• Shape the QBR and business-review motion for high-value accounts
• Use AI and automation to scale coverage and free the team to focus on the highest-impact work

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner with Sales, Onboarding, Support, and Product to drive outcomes CS doesn't fully control
• Represent the voice of the client inside the company and turn client signal into action

What We're Looking For

Experience

• 8+ years in Client Success or account management, with at least 3 years leading leaders (managing managers)
• Proven track record owning and hitting gross and net retention or renewal and expansion targets
• Experience scaling a CS team in a high-growth SaaS or subscription business
• Built operating infrastructure before: health scoring, segmentation, playbooks, forecasting

Leadership and Mindset

• Deeply execution-oriented with a strong sense of ownership over the number and the team
• Hires and coaches well, and is willing to have hard performance conversations
• Comfortable operating in complexity and ambiguity, and building where structure doesn't yet exist
• Data-driven, and AI-forward in how you scale a team

Nice to Have

• Experience in proptech, real estate technology, or serving SMB and entrepreneur clients

Compensation

• Base salary: $160,000 - $190,000
• Annual performance bonus
• Equity
• Comprehensive benefits

This is a hybrid role based in Austin, TX, with several days per week in our Austin office.
