About The Position

HousingWire is a media and information services company for housing industry leaders. Our mission is to move markets forward with information, events, and technology that build community and deliver insight. We serve decision-makers across real estate, mortgage, homebuilding, and fintech with award-winning journalism, proprietary data, and must-attend events. Our culture values curiosity, ownership, and innovation. Role Overview HousingWire is seeking a Senior Customer Success Manager to help shape and execute how we engage, support, and grow our platform users. This role is designed for an experienced SaaS operator who thrives at the intersection of customer success, product education, and revenue expansion. This role is designed for someone who has previously built and run customer success or product adoption programs in a SaaS environment, not just participated in them. You will be responsible for developing and executing our client success strategy—ensuring customers successfully adopt the HousingWire platform, realize ongoing value from our tools, and expand their use of our products over time. This includes managing a portfolio of customers, leading onboarding and training efforts, and identifying opportunities to deepen product engagement and upgrade customers into additional offerings. This role blends strategy with execution. You will help design the frameworks and playbooks that guide customer success while also leading client calls, delivering training, and directly managing high-value accounts. The ideal candidate brings proven experience running customer success programs in a SaaS or data-driven environment and is comfortable operating with a high degree of autonomy. You will partner closely with sales, marketing, and product leadership to refine customer engagement strategies, surface product insights, and continuously improve how we drive adoption, retention, and expansion across the platform.
