Hello from the Recruiting Team at Customer.io! We’re looking for a part-time Contract Customer Success Manager to join our team at Customer.io. This role will be a “full stack” CSM: you’ll own a dedicated book of business, manage onboarding and ongoing support, and help ensure customers achieve success with Customer.io.

Customer.io has experienced consistent year-over-year growth, and as our customer base expands, we’re scaling our team to meet demand. This contract role is an exciting opportunity to make a direct impact supporting customers during a time of rapid growth, while gaining exposure to a dynamic, customer-focused SaaS environment.

Some of the things you’ll do

Manage onboarding and implementation for a portfolio of customers, acting as the project manager from kickoff to go-live
Host transition and planning calls with stakeholders to understand business goals and map data + messaging strategies in Customer.io
Partner with customers to create and execute effective campaigns, newsletters, and data workflows that align with their objectives
Serve as your customer’s first point of contact for dedicated support and troubleshooting; collaborate with Technical Support, Product, and Engineering to get questions answered
Proactively follow up with customers after onboarding, checking in ~1x/month to keep them on track toward renewal
Advise on best practices for campaign design, segmentation, integrations, and lifecycle messaging
Support our contracts team by setting up renewals for success with healthy, engaged customers

About You

You’re curious and enjoy learning about different businesses and industries
You like digging into technical concepts (APIs, integrations, workflows, templating languages) and can translate them into customer-friendly guidance
You’re a creative problem solver, able to uncover root causes and recommend solutions that may go beyond the customer’s initial ask
You stay calm under stress and manage multiple priorities with a clear head
You enjoy working independently, but aren’t afraid to ask for help or collaborate when needed
You’re energized by joining a growing, evolving team and shaping how we do Customer Success

What We’re Looking For

3+ years of experience as a Customer Success Manager (or similar customer-facing role) with a technical SaaS product
Strong comfort communicating with technical and non-technical stakeholders — especially developers and marketers
Background in SaaS, ideally with marketing automation or related platforms (Customer.io, Marketo, Braze, Iterable, ActiveCampaign, Klaviyo, etc.)
Familiarity with APIs, data integrations, logic flows, and templating languages (e.g., Liquid) — not coding daily, but comfortable asking the right questions and troubleshooting root causes
Bonus: Fluency in French, Russian, or Spanish

Logistics

Hours: 20 hours/week, Monday–Friday, working standard business hours in Australia or New Zealand time zones
Contract: 12 months, with potential extension depending on business needs
