• Own gross revenue retention (GRR) and net revenue retention (NRR), establishing measurable strategies to reduce customer churn and protect recurring revenue.

• Assign clear ownership and accountability for each stage of the customer lifecycle and every transition between teams.
• Align customer success, implementation, and support operations to deliver a consistent and coordinated customer experience.
• Develop customer lifecycle metrics and reporting processes that provide leadership with visibility into account health, retention risks, and operational performance.

Voice of the Customer & Product Insights

• Establish a consistent process for collecting, analyzing, and communicating customer behavior and product usage insights to Product teams.
• Translate observed customer activity into actionable feedback that informs product development and customer experience improvements.
• Provide customer references, performance metrics, and supporting information for analyst relations initiatives and customer case studies.
• Maintain a predictable cadence for sharing customer insights with Product and other internal stakeholders.

Customer Success Team Leadership

• First 12 Months: Demonstrate measurable improvement in GRR while maintaining or improving NRR, establish a clearly structured and growing customer success organization, and deliver customer insights to Product on a consistent schedule.
