About the Role

At BlastPoint, Customer Success is about helping utility and financial industry customers turn data into action and drive measurable business outcomes. 

As a Customer Success Manager, you’ll partner with customers to understand their business objectives, define success, guide platform adoption, and ensure they realize measurable value from their investment. You’ll lead strategic conversations, facilitate business reviews, identify opportunities for growth, and serve as the primary point of contact throughout the post-sale customer journey.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving problems, connecting ideas, and learning constantly. No two customers are alike, and success often comes from asking the right questions, synthesizing information quickly, and bringing thoughtful recommendations that help customers move their initiatives forward. 

Your success will be measured not only by customer retention and growth, but by the trust you build, the outcomes you help customers achieve, and your ability to become a valued partner to both customers and internal teams. 

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Customer Partnership: 

• Serve as the primary strategic partner and trusted point of contact for an assigned portfolio of customers.
• Develop a deep understanding of each customer's business objectives, priorities, initiatives, and success metrics.
• Build and maintain strong relationships across all levels of the organization, from day-to-day platform users to executive stakeholders.
• Lead regularly scheduled strategic meetings to review progress, align priorities, remove obstacles, and maintain momentum toward customer goals.
• Proactively guide customers toward achieving their objectives by connecting business priorities with platform capabilities, best practices, and actionable recommendations.

Adoption & Value Realization: 

• Participate in onboarding sessions, and lead product training, Executive Business Reviews, and strategic planning discussions that reinforce customer goals and long-term success.
• Drive adoption through outcome-focused customer engagement, providing recommendations and workflow guidance aligned with each customer's business objectives.
• Continuously monitor customer performance against established goals, platform adoption, and engagement metrics to identify trends, measure success, and proactively address declining performance before it becomes a risk.
• Translate customer data, platform usage, and campaign performance into meaningful insights that demonstrate measurable business value and ROI.
• Bring new ideas, industry perspectives, benchmarks, and actionable recommendations to every customer interaction - not just status check-ins. 

Customer Growth & Retention: 

• Develop a strong understanding of BlastPoint's product offerings and how they work together to create greater value for customers.
• Identify expansion opportunities and partner with Account Managers to support upsell and cross-sell initiatives aligned with customer priorities and business objectives.
• Build and maintain success plans, action plans, and renewal readiness strategies that create transparency, accountability, and a shared understanding of goals and next steps.
• Continuously monitor customer health, engagement, and success metrics to proactively identify risks and strengthen long-term partnerships.
• Execute retention strategies and reinforce measurable value well before renewal conversations begin.

Communication & Operational Excellence:

• Create clear, professional customer-facing documentation for business reviews, presentations, and strategic plans that communicate progress, recommendations, and measurable outcomes.
• Maintain proactive, transparent communication that establishes clear expectations, ownership, and visibility into customer initiatives and success metrics.
• Document customer priorities, action items, and strategic decisions to ensure alignment across internal and external stakeholders.
• Partner closely with Customer Success Operations to continuously improve customer success processes, playbooks, and best practices to create a scalable and consistent customer experience.

Cross-Functional Partnership:

• Represent the voice of the customer by sharing insights, feedback, performance trends, and business priorities with Product, Engineering, Data Science, Sales, Marketing, and Expansion teams.
• Coordinate cross-functional efforts to resolve critical customer issues while maintaining proactive, transparent communication throughout the process.
• Actively participate in feedback loops with Product, Engineering, and Expansion teams to translate customer insights into product enhancements and an improved customer experience.
• Advocate for scalable product enhancements, process improvements, and customer success initiatives based on customer feedback and observed trends.

Qualifications

You should be able to:

• Build credibility and trust with stakeholders ranging from day-to-day users to executive leadership.
• Navigate ambiguity by gathering information, connecting ideas, and translating insights into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Use customer data, business context, and performance trends to identify opportunities, anticipate risks, and drive measurable outcomes.
• Manage multiple customer relationships and competing priorities while maintaining a high level of organization, responsiveness, and attention to detail.
• Operate independently, proactively identifying opportunities and moving initiatives forward with limited direction.
• Thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced environment where priorities evolve and continuous improvement is expected.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.
• 3–5+ years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, or another customer-facing role, preferably within a B2B SaaS or technology organization.
• Experience managing a portfolio of customer relationships across different stages of the customer lifecycle while balancing recurring engagements and strategic initiatives.
