Job description

Enterprise CSM at Opal | $130K OTE & C-Suite Exposure — Remote

Role Level & Compensation: With 2–4 years of experience required and an OTE of $100k–$130k (base + variable commission), this sits at the mid-market range for enterprise CSM roles in SaaS. Industry benchmarks (Glassdoor, Levels.fyi) place enterprise CSMs at similar experience levels in the $95k–$125k OTE range, so Opal is competitive but not exceptional. Stock options add upside given Opal's growth stage.

Skills You'll Build: This role develops highly transferable, in-demand competencies:

• Enterprise relationship management with Fortune 500 brands (C-suite exposure)
• Change management and SaaS platform implementation
• AI tooling in a professional workflow context — a rapidly differentiating skill
• Data-driven customer health analysis using CRMs like Salesforce
• Cross-functional collaboration across Sales, Product, and Marketing

Company Culture Signals: Opal describes itself as "scrappy" with hands-on leaders — classic early-to-mid-stage SaaS startup culture. The emphasis on AI fluency (MCP connectors, daily AI tool use) signals a forward-thinking, tech-adaptive team. The 7-value framework (Steadfast, Polish, Helpful, etc.) and data-rooted performance metrics suggest a structured, accountability-driven environment.

Green Flags: Unlimited PTO, 21 holidays, paid parental leave, 100% paid medical, and remote-first culture are all strong signals of an employee-friendly company. The CSM role here has clear growth vectors — expansion revenue ownership and C-suite access accelerate progression toward Senior CSM or Director of CS roles.

Watch For: Variable commission in CS roles can be inconsistently structured — clarify how commission is calculated (renewal-based? expansion-only?) before accepting an offer.

The Customer Success Manager is part of a smart, gritty, and passionate team of value- and customer-focused players. This role owns the customer relationship and leads strategic conversations with some of the biggest brands in the world to understand their business, objectives, and success criteria. Customer success at Opal is value realization. You do not stop at what a customer asks. You ask why, find the problem underneath, and help them solve what is really holding their business back.

As the primary customer contact post-sale, this role will be responsible for driving the implementation of Opal, ensuring high and sustained platform adoption and renewal. This role will develop account strategies to ensure Opal is demonstrating value that leads to growth and expansion opportunities while creating Opal customer advocates.

About You

You are a passionate and reliable leader with excellent communication skills. You understand the difference between making customers happy versus successful and are laser focused on the latter. You are curious, you ask one more question before you offer a solution. You go beyond chatting with AI. You use it every day, check what it produces, and are comfortable connecting it to our data through MCP connectors to build new ways of working.

About Opal

Our platform is designed for marketing and communications teams, providing a single source-of-truth, connecting strategic planning and day-to-day execution.

• Guide customers through the Opal engagement and implementation model to ensure maximum usage, adoption, value, expansion, and retention.
• Build and own a change management plan for each customer to drive continuous value and user retention.
• Be the Opal product expert and demonstrate a deep understanding of the platform and solutions; use enablement materials to help customers leverage the platform's functionality to its fullest potential and achieve desired business outcomes for customers as well as Opal.
• Be the voice of the customer internally and collaborate with cross-functional teams (Education, Support, Sales, Product, and Marketing) on key milestones along the customer journey.
• Understand and improve internal processes for troubleshooting customer issues.
• Utilize digital CRMs (e.g. Salesforce) to accurately manage customer information, identify and resolve at-risk early indicators, service gaps, identify optimization and expansion opportunities, and bolster territory management and growth plans.
• Use AI tools to prepare for calls, capture notes, and keep customer records current, and review their output for accuracy.
• Work proactively to eliminate risk of customer churn, escalating issues as needed.
