About The Position

At Constant Contact, we are seriously awesome people who take ownership and make an impact by operating with the mindset, integrity and courage of a small business owner. There’s something so profoundly rewarding about knowing that your work is empowering people everywhere to pursue their dreams. Here, we all play an integral part in helping business owners, entrepreneurs, non-profits and individuals to succeed by giving them all the help and tools they need to grow online. We’re energized by new challenges and new possibilities-and we’re just getting started! As a Retention Specialist at Constant Contact, your role is to become a trusted advisor and advocate for our customers at a critical decision point.

This position is pivotal in preserving revenue, reducing churn, and ensuring our customers feel heard, supported, and successful. This is not an entry-level position. You must demonstrate seasoned judgment, advanced negotiation techniques, and a deep understanding of how our platform supports small businesses and nonprofits.
