About this role:

Complex SaaS Implementation & Project Management: You have deep experience contributing to or owning implementation projects for complex SaaS products (actioning a defined project plan, communicating and aligning with stakeholders on progress, and ultimately delivering results in accordance with the agreed upon expectations). You feel comfortable independently owning your domain, as well as keeping customers accountable to theirs. You work effectively in a remote-first setting, with the ability to travel as needed (<5%) for strategic customer engagements.
Customer Centricity: You are adept at understanding enterprise customer needs and tailoring implementation configurations to meet their specific requirements. You build strong customer relationships by maintaining high levels of engagement and communication. You serve as the customer’s proactive guide and advocate related to technical configuration, balancing empathy and practicality throughout the implementation. Bonus points if you have prior familiarity with Talent Acquisition teams and processes.
Technical Proficiency: You have a solid understanding of a complex product (ideally Ashby) and its technical intricacies. You are technically curious and creative.
Critical Thinking & Solutions Orientation: You proactively address thematic customer opportunities and improve our processes accordingly. You don’t rely on ‘I’ve seen this done,’ but instead think critically to solve problems. You anticipate how configuration decisions might impact customer goals, ask questions to validate options, and pair your recommendations with risk mitigation tactics.
Best Practices & Recommendations: You take pride in advising customers on best practices specific to their usage of software to ensure optimal value.
Change Management: You are experienced in navigating change management processes and helping customers adapt to new systems and a refreshed approach.
Cross-functional Collaboration and Communication: You effectively partner with cross-functional stakeholders across Customer Success, Sales, Product, Engineering, and Operations to align and define progress. You proactively communicate progress and risks with internal and external stakeholders.
