Senior Manager, Customer Success
Otter.aiSan Francisco, California, United States · Posted 2 months agoDescription
The Opportunity
Otter.ai just crossed 1 billion meetings transcribed. The enterprise motion is accelerating, and we're building the CS organization that will take us to the next level. This is your chance to help shape what enterprise Customer Success looks like at one of the most consequential AI companies in the world.
We're looking for a Sr. Manager, Customer Success who's ready to own it — someone who builds with conviction, leads with empathy, and knows how to turn a great product into a long-term customer partnership. You'll lead a team, influence company strategy, and leave a real mark on how Otter grows.
This role is based in the San Francisco Bay Area (hybrid, 3 days/week in office).
What You'll Do
- Build and lead a high-performing team. Coach CSMs and Technical Delivery Managers, set the bar for excellence, and create an environment where people do the best work of their careers.
- Own the enterprise relationship. You'll manage complex, multi-stakeholder accounts — building executive trust, navigating renewals, and turning happy customers into champions.
- Drive real outcomes. Retention, expansion, time-to-value — you'll own the metrics that matter and build the programs that move them.
- Create the playbook. Design scalable lifecycle processes that turn a strong first deployment into a multi-year partnership, and make consistency look effortless across the customer base.
- Be the voice of the customer internally. Partner with Sales, Product, and Engineering to shape roadmap decisions, close alignment gaps, and make sure what we build actually solves what customers need.
- Use AI the way we build it. Leverage AI-driven insights to spot risk earlier, personalize engagement at scale, and give your team superpowers.
What You Bring
- You've led CS or Account Management teams in SaaS for 5+ years and have strong opinions about what great looks like.
- You have a proven track record growing and retaining enterprise accounts — and the metrics to show it.
- You're deeply data-driven but never lose sight of the human side of the relationship.
- You've worked cross-functionally with Sales, Product, and Engineering and know how to get things done without formal authority.
- You're genuinely excited about AI — not just as a product category, but as a way to rethink how your team operates.
- You thrive in fast-moving environments where the playbook is still being written.
