As a Client Success Manager, you will own a portfolio of 20–30+ credit union and community bank clients end-to-end. You'll drive product adoption, lead executive business reviews, manage renewals, identify upsell opportunities, and serve as the primary relationship owner for your accounts. You'll work closely with the Director of Client Success, Implementation, Tech Support, and Product teams to ensure clients maximize value from Bankjoy's platform.
Key responsibilities include:
**Client Relationship Management:** Own a portfolio of credit union and community bank clients as their primary point of contact. Build and maintain strong relationships with stakeholders from day-to-day administrators to executive sponsors. Become a trusted advisor by providing strategic recommendations aligned with client business objectives. Conduct regular business reviews and executive meetings to review platform performance, discuss future goals, and identify opportunities for additional value. Lead onsite client engagements with executive presentations and strategic discussions. Serve as the voice of the client internally, surfacing needs and feedback to Product, Engineering, and leadership.
**Product Adoption & Client Growth:** Drive product adoption by proactively educating clients on features, best practices, and new releases. Develop and execute strategic success plans aligned with each client's business objectives. Identify and lead expansion opportunities within your portfolio. Track and report on adoption metrics, engagement scores, and account health.
**Renewals & Retention:** Lead the renewal process including managing timelines, preparing proposals, presenting pricing recommendations, and negotiating agreements in partnership with the Director of Client Success. Proactively identify at-risk accounts and develop mitigation plans. Maintain high client retention by ensuring clients consistently see value. Develop account strategies that strengthen executive relationships and identify long-term growth opportunities.
**Escalation & Issue Resolution:** Serve as the first line of response for client escalations, triaging issues and coordinating with Tech Support, Product, and Engineering. Escalate to the Director of Client Success when needed. Follow up after resolution to ensure satisfaction and document learnings.
**Cross-Functional Collaboration:** Partner with Implementation during onboarding. Work closely with Tech Support for timely issue resolution. Collaborate with Product to surface client feedback and enhancement requests. Support Marketing with case studies and advocacy opportunities.
