What you'll do

  • Own SMB gross revenue retention (GRR) performance against an 85%+ target, with full visibility into churn drivers, save rates, and win-back conversion
  • Build and maintain a health-scoring and risk-signal framework to flag accounts before they reach a cancellation request
  • Partner with Finance/Ops to forecast churn risk and retained revenue on a monthly and quarterly cadence
  • Own the end-to-end cancellation workflow β€” from early warning signals through save attempts, final disposition, and post-churn win-back outreach
  • Direct the Scaled Adoption Specialists in designing and executing both 1-to-many and 1:1 engagement programs that drive feature adoption and reduce churn risk across the SMB base
  • Define adoption milestones tied to retention outcomes and ensure the team is proactively closing adoption gaps before they become risk signals
  • Work closely with a scaled success content team and CS Ops to continuously test and refine outreach cadences, content, and triggers to improve adoption program ROI at scale.
  • Clearly and effectively report on the results of these scaled adoption efforts so impact can be seen by the business as a whole.
  • Direct Retention Specialists (2) in managing the incoming cancellation pipeline β€” triaging requests, running save conversations, and negotiating outcomes that protect revenue while addressing the customer's underlying concern
  • Build a structured win-back motion for customers who have already been booked for churn, including segmentation, outreach cadence, and reactivation offers
  • Establish clear playbooks, talk tracks, and escalation paths so save and win-back outcomes are consistent and coachable, not dependent on individual heroics
  • Coach, and develop a team of 4 (2 Scaled Adoption Specialists, 2 Retention Specialists), setting clear goals, KPIs, and career paths for each function
  • Run weekly pipeline/risk reviews and monthly performance reviews against retention and adoption targets
  • Foster a culture of ownership, urgency, and customer empathy balanced with commercial discipline
  • Serve as the voice of the SMB customer in Product and Engineering roadmap discussions, surfacing adoption and retention insights that should influence the roadmap
  • Partner with Sales and Onboarding to ensure smooth handoffs into the scaled SMB post onboarding experience, ensuring new customers are set up for long-term retention from day one
  • Work with Marketing/Lifecycle teams to align scaled communications and campaigns with retention priorities
  • Report retention performance, risk trends, and program outcomes to CS leadership and cross-functional stakeholders
  • Drive SMB GRR consistently at or above 85%
  • A predictable, forecastable churn pipeline with early-warning coverage across the vast majority of the book
  • Measurable lift in product adoption metrics tied directly to scaled adoption efforts
  • A win-back program that recovers a meaningful percentage of previously churned revenue
  • A high-performing, well-coached team with clear development paths and strong internal engagement

What they require

  • 3+ years in Customer Success, Retention, or Revenue-focused roles, with 2+ years directly managing a scaled success team
  • Proven track record owning and improving GRR/NRR or retention metrics for a high-volume SMB customer segment
  • Experience building and scaling 1-to-many customer engagement programs (adoption campaigns, digital-led CS motions, automation/lifecycle tooling)
  • Direct experience running or overseeing a cancellation/save process, including negotiation and objection handling at scale
  • Strong analytical skills β€” comfortable owning health scores, churn forecasting, and reporting on retention/adoption KPIs
  • Experience with CS platforms (Gainsight, ChurnZero, Vitally, or similar), CRM tools (Salesforce/HubSpot), and Tableau, BI, or similar reporting tools
  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills; able to influence Product, Sales, and Marketing without direct authority
  • SaaS experience required; healthcare, dental, or vertical SaaS experience strongly preferred
  • A builder's mindset β€” comfortable creating process and playbooks where none exist yet
  • Ability to travel ~once a quarter for leadership meetings
  • Experience in dental, healthcare, or practice-management software
  • Experience building CS AI risk signal framework
  • All offers of employment are contingent upon successful completion of a background check, which may include verification of education, employment history, and other credentials.
  • By applying, you confirm that all information you have provided is accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge, and you understand that misrepresentation may result in disqualification or termination.
