About the Role
The SailPoint Customer Success team champions helping customers maximize value from their Identity Security investments, ensuring rapid time-to-value, long-term loyalty, and maximizing lifetime value. As Manager, Customer Success, you will lead, scale, and inspire a regional team of Customer Success Managers (CSMs), driving regional customer retention, satisfaction, and operational excellence. This high-impact leadership role focuses on value delivery and KPI attainment, not quota-carrying sales.

- Coach, mentor, and upskill regional CSMs to achieve 100% target attainment across key performance metrics, managing regional capacity, onboarding, and talent retention.
- Serve as the regional escalation point, partnering with CSMs to architect action plans for at-risk accounts, ensuring swift path-to-resolution on critical field issues.
- Own regional reporting and forecasting accuracy for account health, program progression, customer sentiment, and risk indicators to drive executive visibility.
- Cultivate strategic relationships with executive stakeholders within key accounts to accelerate their Identity Security maturity journey and secure renewal predictability.
- Act as a strategic conduit, translating customer objectives into actionable insights for various internal stakeholders.
Requirements
- Empathetic, inspiring leader and coach committed to helping Customer Success Managers grow, succeed, and maintain high morale and camaraderie.
- Critical and strategic thinker, capable of shifting conversations from reactive issue resolution to proactive problem-solving and business outcome delivery through technology.
- Ability to build lasting, trust-based relationships both externally with key customer advocates and internally with cross-functional SailPoint teams.
- Outstanding communication skills and executive presence, with the ability to foster strong credibility with both highly technical audiences and business executives.
- Exceptionally organized and capable of prioritizing and managing multiple complex regional tasks and strategic portfolios concurrently.
- 5 to 10 years of customer-facing experience (such as Customer Success, Account Management, or Consulting) in a SaaS or enterprise software environment.
- Demonstrable experience in people leadership, mentoring, or coaching high-performing client-facing teams.
- Strong customer interaction skills, including professional writing, phone skills, and outstanding executive presence.
- Proven ability to communicate technical details to a non-technical audience while fostering credibility with technical teams.
- Excellent problem-solving, mediation, and relationship-building skills.
- Experience or domain knowledge in Cyber Security, Identity Security, or Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) is a plus.
