Onboarding criteria
Stay operationally involved in customer management — get hands-on when needed to support accounts and ensure smooth operations.
Apply a high-touch, consultative approach with mid-market to enterprise clients, balancing strategic guidance with operational excellence.
Manage and resolve escalation cases, clearly distinguishing between software support issues and larger consulting/advisory needs.
Build credibility in carbon accounting and sustainability standards (GHG Protocol, ISO 14067) and reporting frameworks (SBTi, CDP, TCFD), understanding the complexity of emission data to act as a trusted partner for clients.
Drive cross-functional collaboration with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Tech teams to ensure structured feedback loops, align customer outcomes, and close gaps in the customer journey.
Strategically develop customer accounts, defining clear operational milestones to help clients integrate carbon controlling into their core business strategy.
Lead by example: be an expert in Customer Success, demonstrating what excellent client experience looks like and how to scale it in a B2B SaaS environment.
⭐ What you bring to thrive in this role:
Hands-on SaaS experience (Data heavy products, B2B, Series A+ stage) with exposure to enterprise accounts.
5+ years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, or Consulting, including 1+ year in a leadership position.
Strong analytical and process-thinking skills, capable of building a KPI-driven CS organization.
Experience in project management and presenting complex ideas (PowerPoint/executive reporting).
Interest in the decarbonization space, especially Scope 3-heavy industries such as manufacturing or logistics.
Ability to think strategically and operationally, turning customer insights into structured plans.
Experience in digital transformation or change management is a plus.
Fluent in English and German, with outstanding communication skills across all levels — from C-level executives to operational champions.
