About The Position

Our Customer Success team sits at the intersection of retention and growth. We don’t measure ourselves on activity. We measure ourselves on outcomes. This team is trusted to operate commercially, think strategically, and do what it takes to move customers forward. It’s not always clean or structured, and that’s the point. The people who succeed here figure things out, push through complexity, and consistently deliver real value to customers. As a Senior Customer Success Manager (CSM) at Absorb, you will own a portfolio of Enterprise and Strategic accounts, representing a significant book of business with direct impact on customer health, Gross Revenue Retention (GRR), and long-term growth. This role requires a proactive, outcome-oriented approach. You are expected to anticipate risk, identify opportunity, and drive account strategy aligned to customer objectives and commercial outcomes. You will operate as a strategic advisor with strong commercial and technical acumen, leading discovery, shaping success strategies, and ensuring measurable value realization through Absorb LMS. This is a highly customer-facing role with an expectation of consistent engagement across senior stakeholders, including regular participation in strategic customer conversations and forums. You will partner closely with Strategic and Enterprise Account Managers, who own the commercial relationship, to co-develop account plans, inform renewal strategy, manage risk, and support expansion.
