About Ongoing

About the position
As a Senior Customer Success Manager at Ongoing, you will own the relationship with a portfolio of our larger customers once they are live on Ongoing WMS, typically after onboarding, go-live and hyper care period is complete. You are commercially responsible for your portfolio: you make sure customers get measurable value from the platform, stay with us, and grow with us, from additional users and functionality to new warehouses.
You will be the first member of a new Customer Success team in our Existing Business unit, a sister team to Professional Services, led by our COO. This is a senior role with significant influence, but no initial personnel responsibility. You will later work closely with other Customer Success Managers and colleagues in Sales, Customer Onboarding, Professional Services, and R&D.

Own and develop long-term relationships with decision-makers and operational stakeholders in your customer portfolio.
Understand each customer's business, objectives, warehouse operations and development plans, and turn them into clear success plans and agreed next steps.
Run business reviews at least once a year, and twice a year for key accounts, and monitor adoption, usage and customer health to identify risk early.
Own growth in your portfolio end to end: identify, present and close additional users, functionality and modules under our pricing model, including product demos and commercial proposals.
For larger or more complex expansions, such as a new warehouse launch with full onboarding, or replacing another WMS the customer runs alongside Ongoing WMS, lead the opportunity together with Sales and Solutions Architects
Lead renewal and commercial conversations with your customers.

Collaborate closely with internal specialists to create a coherent customer experience from the handover out of onboarding to long-term development.
Who we are looking for
