Associate Customer Success Manager (Remote LATAM or US)

Hi, I'm Joe, Head of Customer Success at Whippy. I'm hiring an entrepreneurial Associate Customer Success Manager to retain and grow a dedicated book of customers. This role is built for someone early in their career (0-1 years of experience), and new grads are welcome. You'll ramp alongside me and experienced teammates, then take ownership of your own customers as you prove you're ready. WHY I'M HIRING At Whippy, we view Customer Success as a revenue engine, not a cost center, because if customers don't get value from a tool, they'll leave. Whippy has six incredible products today because we've always built alongside our customers. That's how we evolved from a simple texting platform to now powering calls, texts, email, AI agents, and complex messaging and business automations for over 1,000 businesses. We ship fast to meet our customers' needs. Most customers start with one use case, like a staffing firm using an AI voice agent to screen candidates. They stay and grow because they see real ROI, then expand use cases until Whippy becomes the infrastructure their business runs on. Your job is to drive that growth: make their first outcome happen during onboarding and implementation, uncover the next problem, and help them get even more value. In this role, you'll mainly work with customers in the staffing industry. Their data flows into Whippy from their ATS, most often TempWorks, Avionte, Aqore/Zenople, Crelate, or Bullhorn, so you'll learn how staffing firms recruit and place talent, and how to build on top of their data. Our customer success team has taken staffing customers from an initial $12K deal to $180K ARR because customers like Your Employment Solutions https://www.linkedin.com/company/your-employment-solutions/ are getting over $1M in ROI using Whippy to augment their teams and beat the competition. You'll help us grow more customers by deeply understanding their desired outcomes, helping them achieve those outcomes, and providing an exceptional experience along the way. This is one of those rare jobs with massive growth and learning opportunities: there's no bureaucracy here, and we're still early in building a world-class customer success team. You'll have a crucial role to play, and fresh ideas, feedback, and experimentation are always encouraged because we double down on wins and quickly pivot when ideas don't work out. You'll work alongside our six-person customer success team and report directly to me. I'll provide the support, coaching, tools, and data to do the best work of your career here, plus the variable comp to get well rewarded when you deliver results. I'm looking for someone who wants to be technical, strategic, and commercial, all in one. Technical as in you enjoy mastering the product and finding the best solutions for our customers. Strategic as in you deeply understand your customers' pain points and always have a plan to solve them. Commercial as in you have pricing awareness and understand the retention and expansion risks and opportunities in your book. SOME THINGS YOU'LL DO - Own a book of business end to end, from onboarding through renewal and expansion, as the single point of contact and trusted advisor. - Run a proactive cadence on every account: prepared calls, clear agendas, mutual success plans, and follow-through. - Become a product and customer expert. Master Whippy's products and know your customers' business well enough to build the workflows, AI agents, and automations that solve their problems. - Learn fast. Shadow calls, get hands-on coaching from me, and take on more ownership every month. - Pick up the phone. Reach out proactively, ask the question instead of guessing, and get ahead of problems before they turn into escalations. - Own your gross and net revenue retention, and get rewarded for beating targets. - Tie usage to business outcomes, and report value back in the metrics customers actually care about. - Spot expansion signals and hand warm leads to sales when usage outgrows the contract. - Turn wins into case studies, references, and testimonials that help sales win the next customer. - Tell customers the truth, steering them away from work that won't move their business and toward the work that will. - Advocate for the customer. Feed what you hear to product, sales, and engineering so we build the right things. - Experiment and iterate. If you have an idea to do something better, do it and document what you learn. OUR CUSTOMER SUCCESS VALUES This is a high-performance environment, and I'll coach and support you through it. You'll be challenged, coached, and you'll always know where you stand. CS is a team sport, so it's okay to ask for help, experiment, fail, and pivot. A few things that are true here: - Everyone is a builder. Our team builds in the product without engineering, and the best product ideas come from you, the person closest to the customer. We use AI to move fast, but we own our work, verify every fact, and don't...
