THE CHALLENGE

We are building a world-class Customer Success organisation of motivated and talented platform experts. We're looking for self-motivated candidates, relentless advocates for our customers, adept problem solvers and skilful relationship managers. The team is responsible for being a strategic liaison between Eventbrite and our largest and highest-value customers, meaning we need platform experts who deliver amazing experiences for our customers and drive long-lasting success for our partners.

THE TEAM

At Eventbrite, we're creating the world's first marketplace for live experiences. We're building the tools that power music festivals, marathons, conferences, hackathons, air guitar competitions, and everything in between--as well as the platform that helps people discover events that fuel their passions. Our mission? To bring the world together through live experiences. Our Customer Success team builds high-level relationships with our customers focused on service and engagement.

At Eventbrite, we believe great technology and great service make a fantastic customer experience. The smart, passionate, creative, and delightful team of Customer Success team members act as strategic advisors to our largest and most complex organisers. The team works together and cross-functionally every day to create exceptional experiences for our valued partners. The rewards are great and no challenge is too big.

THE ROLE

As a Customer Success Manager on our Customer Success Team, you will help our large and complex customers realise the maximum ROI with the Eventbrite platform, and help the company build a world-class customer lifecycle model that supports our core business and expands our revenue potential. You will be responsible for ensuring a high-quality, predictable, and repeatable delivery model is implemented that maximizes delivery quality, engagement, retention, and revenue. You will play a pivotal role in shaping and executing the company's strategic initiatives.

Drive re-engagement with inactive or at-risk Strategic accounts
Increase product and feature adoption amongst Strategic accounts that will help improve their success on the platform
