Why join us?
We’re a global tech company, just not the kind you’re picturing. Sure, we’ve got catered lunches, team events, cool merch, and yes... dogs in the office. But that’s not why people join.
Our team of nearly a thousand people wakes up every day to make our product and our customers’ lives better. At SafetyCulture, you’ll hear “yes, let’s give it a shot” more often than “that’s not how we do things here.”
People join because we’re building tools that make work better for the 3 billion people who keep the world moving - factory floor operators, baggage handlers, truck drivers, servers, store assistants. The ones who make things happen. We’ve got the scale and innovation you’d expect from big tech. The difference? No endless layers of sign-off. No corporate theatre. Just smart, experienced people solving real problems fast
The scale is big. But the ownership’s personal. Every full-time team member gets equity - real skin in the game. When we grow, you do too. We’re not perfect, no company is. But this next chapter of our growth is about scaling with intelligence, not just size - fueled by operational maturity, a clear vision, and a strong focus on AI.
This is big tech impact, without the big tech ick. If that excites you more than it scares you, you’ll fit right in
The Role
As a Manager of Customer Success, you’ll lead a team of Customer Success Managers who are each responsible for driving success across large portfolios of AMER-based customers. Your team will focus on customer retention, adoption, and use-case growth by leveraging data-driven insights and scalable customer engagement strategies.

- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Sales, Product, Support, and Engineering to advocate for customer needs and ensure a seamless customer experience across the journey.
- Team Coaching & Career Development: Mentor and develop CSMs, supporting performance, continuous improvement, and career growth through regular coaching and feedback.
- Strategic Account Support & Planning: Work directly with your team on key account strategies, helping them execute engagement plans that address onboarding, adoption, and long-term value realization.
- Goal Setting & Performance Management: Establish and iterate on clear KPIs and success metrics for the team, aligning performance with quarterly retention, onboarding, and customer health goals.
- Global & Regional Strategy Execution: Partner with the Manila Head of Customer Success and global CS leaders in Sydney, Manchester, and Kansas City to execute on strategic retention and growth initiatives and deliver consistent customer experiences.
- Customer Feedback & Product Advocacy: Share insights from customer engagements directly with Product and Engineering to influence improvements and roadmap decisions.
