Job Description
Tessian Tessian protects every business’s mission by
securing the human layer 💫 We're building intelligent security that works for human beings
as they are , not how security policies would like them to be. Using machine learning technology, Tessian automatically predicts and eliminates advanced threats on email caused by human error - like data exfiltration, accidental data loss, business email compromise and phishing attacks - with minimal disruption to employees' workflow. As a result, employees are empowered to do their best work, without security getting in their way. Tessian has raised a
$65m Series C led by renowned security investors, March Capital (Crowdstrike, Knowbe4), with follow-on from Sequoia, Accel, Balderton, Latitude & Schroder Adveq, to further our mission to secure the human layer. Founded in 2013, Tessian is backed by world-class venture capital investors and has hubs in San Francisco, Boston, Austin, and London.
Customer Success at Tessian With exceptional product/market fit for our category-defining Human Layer Security software platform, we’re transitioning from 'start-up' to ‘scale-up’, and looking for an experienced Customer Success manager to help define and build out the CS function in the US. We are looking for passionate entrepreneurs, builders and straight up hustlers to help us design and execute the strategy for US customer success. You'll work closely with our evangelistic and diverse US customer base in order to demonstrate and amplify the value Tessian brings, and develop & deepen meaningful relationships. Taking ownership of a rapidly expanding and strategically critical section of our customer base, you will be working closely with a range of enterprise customers across multiple industries (legal, financial, technology, etc) and stakeholders (CIOs, CTOs, CISOs). You’ll be comfortable moving quickly and accurately, and be brilliant at continually re-prioritizing what must get done to keep Tessian growing at pace. As well as being responsible for renewals and advocacy in our US customer base, you'll be a bridge between engineering, product and our customers - communicating our technology, understanding customer pain-points and interpreting future customer needs to inform our product development.
In this position you'll get to:
- Serve as the trusted advisor to our strategic customers and executive sponsors post initial sale. This is a key role as Tessian’s customer base expands globally
- Partner with our sales team to identify and close expansion opportunities
- Advise our key clients, with hands-on platform guidance, on how to manage Tessian's solution to achieve full business value
- Conduct periodic executive reviews and health checks - accurately assessing customer health, helping define adoption strategies and ensure value realization (using key metrics from the platform)
- Own the customer renewal. Identify renewal risk and collaborate with internal teams to remediate and ensure a successful renewal
- Act as the voice of the customer cross-functionally and collect feedback to influence continuous improvement in the product and our processes
- Expand our customer community to accelerate our go-to-market motion
We'd love to meet someone who:
- Has experience working in a fast paced, high-growth B2B SaaS technology environment, selling enterprise software (this one is really important!)
- Has 5 to 10 years of quota carrying account or customer success management experience, with responsibilities over retention as well as expansion
- Understands the ebbs and flows of a fast paced start-up environment because your track record shows that you’ve stuck it out through the ups and downs!
- Is driven & highly ambitious
- Understands the legal, financial and professional-services sectors
- Has a proven track record of working in a competitive, fast-paced and high pressure environment
- Is a best-in class communicator, both verbally and in writing
