About the role
As our Head of Customer Success, you will own Reevo's entire post-sales function and be accountable for customer activation, time-to-value, product usage/adoption, and retention.

You will directly lead and build the full post-sales org, including: Onboarding / Activation (Implementation) Customer Success Managers (CSMs) Technical Account Managers (TAMs) Customer Support You will design the operating model, systems, and metrics that turn implementation into durable adoption , adoption into measurable business outcomes , and outcomes into retention - while partnering closely with Sales / Account Management on renewals and expansion. Customer outcomes aren't a vibe, they are a measurable business function you will run end-to-end. We care a lot about building a strong in-person culture, and we're very much in build mode. We expect the team to be in our SF office five days a week - that's important to how we operate and scale right now.

- Ensure a consistent, segment-aware customer experience - from the first week through renewal.

- Define what "success" means by customer profile and translate it into measurable signals: activation milestones, key workflows adopted, time-to-value, engagement depth, and business outcomes.
