Global Head of Customer Success Program Impact Team
The Qualtrics XM Platform™ is a system of action that helps businesses to attract customers who stay longer and buy more, to engage and empower employees to do the best work of their lives, to develop breakthrough products people love, and to build a brand people can’t imagine living without.
Joining Qualtrics means becoming part of a team bold enough to chase breakthrough experiences - like building a technology that will be a force for good. A team committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion because of a conviction that every voice holds value, with a vision for representation that matches the world around us and inclusion that far exceeds it. You could belong to a team whose values center on transparency, being all in, having customer obsession, acting as one team, and operating with scrappiness. All so you can do the best work of your career.
We believe every interaction is an opportunity. Are we yours?
The Challenge
The Customer Success team at Qualtrics is responsible for renewing and expanding Qualtrics’ global base of existing customers. We have an industry-leading renewal rate already, and a rapid rate of growth in our business--bringing more customers into our book of business every day. We have an incredible foundation, and our next opportunity is to continue to enhance the ways in which we help our customers realize full business value from our solution. We must now teach our 200+ person global organization to identify opportunities for our customers to have greater impact using Qualtrics’ product; communicate that opportunity to customers in a simple, customized way; and develop a pragmatic plan to realize that value for our customers. Success requires each of our CSMs and managers to build new skills--first in the Americas and then scaling that effort globally.
In this role, you will be directly responsible for building those skills in our organization by engaging with each account team, helping them to turbo-charge their customers’ Qualtrics programs to be XM leaders in their respective industries. You will report to and work directly with the Head of Customer Success in the Americas, and will lead a team of consultants and others to help provide ground-level support to accounts. This is the single most important transformational theme we have in front of us within Customer Success, and is yours to drive--both in how we execute this initiative within our teams, and in how we shape our organization’s talent bench (and your role in it) for years to come.
