The Opportunity
We are seeking an energetic, customer-focused, and technically savvy Customer Success Manager (CSM) to drive product adoption and generate lead opportunities for individual broker customers.
This role requires exceptional communication skills, a proactive approach to customer engagement, and a devotion to ensuring every broker seamlessly integrates Buildout into their day-to-day workflow.

• A track record of identifying and referring potential expansion or upsell opportunities
• Bias towards action - you eagerly take on new challenges and are comfortable acting with minimal planning, especially when proactive outreach is needed
• Tech Savvy - when confronted with complex, unfamiliar software and tools (such as the software we offer our customers), you quickly figure out how the system works without extensive training and can quickly teach what you learn to others
• Communicates effectively - you’re great on the phone and with the written word, meet the customer where they are, and are unafraid to insert some delight and levity into the day-to-day
• Drives results - you focus and prioritize the work that will impact business outcomes, and are allergic to not hitting your goals
• Customer focus - you understand customer needs and are devoted to creating positive, helpful experiences
• Operationally and process minded - you are keen on having established processes and steps in place in order to achieve a desired end goal
• Nimble learning - you go beyond your comfort zone, you learn from experience, and apply those learnings going forward
