- 3-5 years in customer success, retention, account management, or renewals, ideally with some team leadership or mentoring experience

- Knows how to identify at-risk customers before they churn and act on it fast
- Can follow and improve playbooks and processes to deliver consistent outcomes
- Is a natural coach who supports team members through clear expectations and regular feedback
- Is customer-obsessed but commercially minded - you understand unit economics and know when to invest in retention
