We’re Salesforce, the Customer Company, inspiring the future of business with AI+ Data +CRM. Leading with our core values, we help companies across every industry blaze new trails and connect with customers in a whole new way. And, we empower you to be a Trailblazer, too — driving your performance and career growth, charting new paths, and improving the state of the world. If you believe in business as the greatest platform for change and in companies doing well and doing good – you’ve come to the right place.

Role Description

For our customers who wish to get the most value out of Salesforce with enterprise and rapid support, delivered by our most skilled experts, they purchase our Signature Success Plan. When you have Signature, you unlock our deepest level of partnership, most skilled expertise, and tools to stay agile.

As a Customer Success Manager (CSM), you will serve as a named resource and partner for Salesforce’s customer organizations. You are a trusted advisor, forging deep relationships with your customers and account teams and maintaining an awareness of key events, needs, potential risks, and value drivers. With a continual focus on your customers’ business needs, you will help to improve their overall technical and operational health, helping them to realize the maximum value out of their Salesforce investment. You will act as a point of contact for any major customer incidents, being responsible for managing expectations and communications through the resolution of such incidents.

These activities will enable you to proactively set the customer up for success through optimization of the platform, with special care during critically important peak events. This will require deep technical knowledge of the Salesforce platform, and the ability to work closely across internal and external teams to provide a unified Signature experience.

  • Communicate the value of Signature Success. Be accountable for ensuring all collaborators understand this value so that customers continue to renew Signature Success.
  • Act as an advocate for customers during the triage and resolution of high-severity cases to assist with the timely resolution of these issues.
  • The CSM may be required for occasional travel to customer sites and may need to be available for some after-hour or weekend coverage, depending on the customer’s need.

Minimum Requirements
