Job Details

Ignition is looking for an experienced operator with expertise in a product-led B2B SaaS environment, preferably with a focus on the SMB market. As we look to the future with ambitious growth goals, we are looking for a leader who has helped Customer Success teams thrive and scale all the way to $100m in ARR. Ignition’s growth has largely been driven by human-assisted motions in both pre- and post-sale stages. While there will always be a role for human-led interactions, we are looking for an ambitious leader to help the Customer Experience team thrive as we embrace a Product Led Growth business model.

Reporting to the VP of Customer Experience, you will help shape the future of the Customer Experience team at Ignition, acting as a mentor to key team members, and a hands-on operator that can ensure Ignition’s customer service reputation remains intact while embedding scalability as a core tenet of the teams’ operations.

What you'll be focused on:

  1. Develop and Execute a Scaled CX Strategy: Partner with the VP of CX to define and implement a scalable customer experience strategy that remains intact through to $100M ARR. Help design an org structure that optimizes outcomes and sustainable headcount growth.

  2. Form and Lead a Pooled CSM Team: Establish and manage a pooled CSM team focused on supporting unassisted customer segments. Guide the team in defining playbooks and processes that balance effective outreach with a primarily digital-led customer journey, ensuring sustainable growth through efficient customer-to-CSM ratios.

  3. Optimize Processes, Playbooks, and Tech Stack: Conduct a review of the tech stack, processes, and playbooks across customer success, support, and education. Recommend and implement changes (retain, replace, or eliminate) to improve scalability, streamline workflows, and enhance CX touchpoints.

  4. Advocate for Data-Driven and Product-Led CX Improvements: Collaborate with data engineering, CX ops (RevOps), and the Growth product team to prioritize and execute data and product needs, including health scoring, churn prediction, and risk signals, to drive proactive, impactful CX playbooks and interventions.

  5. Refine Customer Journey and Segment-Specific Strategies: Continuously evaluate and update the customer journey map for different verticals and segments, ensuring a tailored approach that optimizes each customer’s experience across their lifecycle. Partner with the education and customer marketing teams to minimize human touchpoints through effective content and communications.

  6. Lead and Mentor the CX Program Team: Oversee a small team of CX program directors and managers, empowering them to develop scalable solutions for key workflows, including revenue expansion, retention, and new vertical initiatives. Encourage collaboration with key account management to incorporate scalable strategies within 1:1 service playbooks.

Your Metrics

You’ll own:

  1. Improving unassisted customer cohort retention

  2. Net Revenue Retention for unassisted customers (Expansion is via new add-on products and plan switch)

  3. Payment volume (unassisted cohorts)

  • 7+ years of experience as a Director+ in a PLG oriented B2B SaaS business

  • Willingness to take on key initiatives as the driver of the strategy and outcomes (i.e. roll up your sleeves and get it done). You’ll be a true player coach, not afraid to play a strong operational role while helping re-align the existing team to create the biggest impact.

  • Passionate problem solver, with the ability to break down complex problems into simple narratives with context and recommendations, while calling out dependencies and risks.

  • A history of, and a willingness to, mentoring and developing a team of ambitious team members

  • Experience in selling multiple products in a post-sale environment.

  • Experience with consumption-based products

  • Proficiency in CSPs, enablement tools, and reporting/analytics platforms.

  • Proven experience in leading and documenting change management initiatives with minimal impact on productivity. Demonstrated ability to navigate complex transformations smoothly, ensuring team alignment and business continuity.

  • Proven stakeholder and relationship management with members of Executive Leadership is significant, bonus points for global stakeholder management experience.

Why join us:

Join our global SaaS scale-up company where we foster a collaborative, open, and transparent culture and work without ego. Our team comprises curious and intelligent colleagues who embrace challenges. Here's what we offer:

  • Employee stock options from day one
