What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a Customer Success Manager to join our Customer Experience Team and help us deliver exceptional client outcomes while building a scalable, high-impact customer success function.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on client engagement, operational ownership, and cross-functional collaboration — and wants to take a hands-on role in shaping strategy, driving retention and expansion, and mentoring future teammates as we scale.

This is a hybrid role available to candidates who are eligible to work in Canada and located in the GTA, with in-office requirements to be downtown Toronto from Monday - Wednesday.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Sales, Product, and Engineering to deliver solutions, advocate for customer needs, and optimize the customer journey.

  • Take ownership of a portfolio of accounts, building trusted advisor relationships with key stakeholders and executive sponsors.

  • Proactively monitor customer health metrics, identify risk signals, and create action plans to drive retention and expansion opportunities.

  • Develop and execute tailored success plans with clear milestones, measurable outcomes, and ROI tracking.

  • Lead business reviews and executive meetings to showcase impact, gather feedback, and align on future growth.

  • Propose improvements and help establish scalable best practices, playbooks, segmentation models, and customer health scoring frameworks.

  • Create enablement resources, training materials, and documentation to support adoption and future team growth.

  • Mentor and support future Customer Success team members as we build and scale the function.

  • Identify and implement AI-driven workflows that improve efficiency and allow us to scale without compromising customer experience.

What You’ll Bring
  • 3–5+ years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, or a similar client-facing role within B2B SaaS or technology companies.

  • Strong skills in customer lifecycle management, retention strategy, stakeholder management, and data analysis.

  • Proven experience managing a portfolio of accounts with retention rates above 90% and a track record of driving expansion revenue.

  • Experience using CRM and customer success platforms (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot, Gainsight, ChurnZero).

  • Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across teams and influence stakeholders from end users to C-suite leaders.

  • A proactive, data-driven mindset with the ability to translate metrics into actionable insights and business impact.

  • Comfort operating in ambiguity and building processes from the ground up in a fast-paced startup environment.

  • Post-secondary education in Business, Communications, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).

Nice to Haves
  • Experience in FinTech, payments, financial services, or B2B SaaS serving SMB, Mid-Market, or Enterprise clients.

  • Familiarity with accounts receivable, payment processing, or financial operations workflows.

  • Track record of contributing to customer success strategy, including playbook development or customer health scoring.

  • Experience mentoring teammates or helping build team structures.

  • Comfort working in fast-paced, dynamic, and high-impact environments.

What We Offer
  • Competitive salary tailored to your experience, skills, and expertise.

    • The total compensation range for this role is $110,000 - 120,000 CAD, plus equity. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the approximate total target compensation for the position. Within the range, individual pay is determined by factors including relevant skills, experience, education/training.
