Role description
As an Enterprise Customer Success Manager at Fonoa, your primary responsibility will be to ensure that customers fully leverage Fonoa’s solutions to enhance their indirect tax strategies. This involves managing a diverse portfolio of accounts and collaborating closely with both customers and internal stakeholders to secure successful renewals and drive expansion.

- Thematic Gap Analysis: Identify and address gaps at both the account and portfolio levels to streamline processes and enhance customer experience.
- Pre-Sales Collaboration: Work alongside Account Executives in pre-sales activities to ensure the scope of sales, renewals, or expansions is accurately defined.
- Sales Team Feedback: Provide Fonoa’s sales teams with insights and feedback gleaned from sales engagements to refine sales strategies.
- Product Team Liaison: Serve as a bridge for customer product and development requests, delivering valuable insights to the Fonoa Product Team for ongoing product enhancement.

- 6+ years in customer success, project management, account management, or similar roles.
- 3+ years of experience in B2B SaaS environments.
- A proven ability to build strong, collaborative relationships across various organisational levels, including with customer champions and C-suite executives.
