We are hiring an Enterprise Customer Success Manager at Canonical

Customer success is a new and strategic department at Canonical, with the objective of reducing risk and churn, facilitating the adoption of new products or services, and supporting expansion within existing accounts. Customer Success Managers (CSM) are responsible for developing trust with their assigned customers and providing them with the best possible experience navigating Canonical's vast offering. By clearly understanding their customers’ objectives, the CSM can align expectations, suggest a large range of additional services or product capacity to increase loyalty, alleviate any pain points, and help draw and deliver on an appropriate collaboration roadmap. 

We are growing our Customer Success team to continue to offer thoughtful, smart, precise interactions across our product portfolio, from Ubuntu to open-source infrastructure and applications. To provide the  appropriate level of focus for every customer, CSMs are specialized in one of the following segments:  

  • Mass - SMEs or large businesses starting their journey with Canonical
  • Focus - Large companies with established ARR
  • Step Growth - a selection of high-potential customers 

All CSMs contribute to business support at the company level for all remaining, not-yet-assigned customers (Tech segment), including our Store customers.

Location:  This role will be based remotely.
