As a Customer Success Manager (Scale) at Thinkific, you will collaborate with a team of CSMs to support a shared portfolio of clients.

In this role, you will ensure that all Plus clients within the portfolio receive the strategic guidance they need to experience success on Thinkific, beginning from when they first join Thinkific Plus and throughout their lifecycle.

Through your work, you’ll actively contribute to the Customer Success department’s objectives and key results each quarter.

Your goal will be to work collaboratively with a group of CSMs in order to provide service to a large portfolio of Plus customers.

• Help Plus customers level up on Thinkific, including by discussing and understanding their business strategies and suggesting additional features or integrations

• Experience working in multidisciplinary teams and cross-functionally
