Principal Customer Success Manager

Ometria•New York, NY

About The Position

We're looking for a Principal Customer Success Manager to own and grow our most important enterprise relationships across North America. You'll be the most senior individual contributor on the US CS team, working with a focused book of our highest-ARR clients and setting the standard for how we deliver value at the enterprise level. Who are we? Ometria is a Customer Data and Experience Platform built for retail marketers to be the fastest route to sustainable growth. Our platform combines the data unification and customer insight of a CDP with an experience platform, letting retail marketers plan and launch their most profitable campaigns and create personalised experiences across email, mobile, on-site, social, direct mail and more. We're trusted by some of the fastest-growing retail brands in the world, including Brooklinen, Davines, Steve Madden and Sephora. We have over 120 Ometrians across North America and Europe, and have raised $75m from investors including Infravia Capital Partners, Octopus Ventures and Summit Action. The role Reporting to the Manager of Customer Success, you'll own a focused portfolio of our most strategic North American enterprise accounts — large, complex organisations with multiple stakeholders, significant ARR and high expectations. These are clients where the relationship matters as much as the product, and where the quality of CS work directly affects retention and revenue. You'll take full ownership of the commercial relationship, lead executive engagement and ensure clients see clear, measurable value from Ometria. This is a highly cross-functional role — you'll work closely with our North American Sales team on renewals and expansion, partner with customer and technical teams across the business to deliver for your clients, and have regular visibility with our founder and CEO on the performance and health of our most important accounts. You'll also be a go-to resource for the wider CS team — sharing your approach, contributing to how we build and refine our customer success practice, and helping more junior CSMs navigate complex account situations.

Requirements

7+ years of Customer Success experience in an enterprise SaaS organisation, with a proven track record of owning large, complex, multi-stakeholder accounts with significant ARR — ideally with exposure to retail, ecommerce or MarTech
Executive presence — you're comfortable and credible in conversations with CMOs, CTOs and CEOs at major enterprise organisations, and you know how to adapt your approach depending on who's in the room
Commercial sharpness — you spot risk and opportunity in account data, and you can navigate commercial conversations with confidence. You don't wait to be asked
Relationship depth — you build relationships that go beyond the day-to-day contact. Your clients trust you because you consistently deliver and tell them what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear
Data fluency — you're comfortable working with and interpreting performance data, and you can turn it into a clear narrative that lands with marketing and commercial stakeholders alike
Technical credibility — you don't need to be an engineer, but you understand enough about how Ometria works technically (APIs, data feeds, integrations) to hold your own with technical stakeholders and know when to escalate
Organised and accountable — you manage a complex book of business without dropping balls. Your Salesforce hygiene is good, your forecasting is reliable and your clients know what to expect from you
A natural at sharing what you know — you raise the people around you. You share your thinking, contribute to how the team works and are generous with your experience
