About the role

Original posting from Ivo Inc via Ashby

WHY JOIN IVO?

Contracts are the oldest business technology in human history. They allow us to collaborate: they define what we promise each other, how we work together, and what happens when things go wrong.

Ivo builds AI products that helps companies like Meta, Uber, IBM, Intel, DoorDash, Mitsubishi Electric, and Coinbase solve their most difficult contracting problems. We think that large language models have created an opportunity to fundamentally change how businesses collaborate with each other.

At Ivo you will work on challenging problems with colleagues who have high standards for each other, move fast, and care deeply about their craft.

  • Customer Support & Issue Resolution: Act as the primary contact for enterprise customer inquiries, providing timely and effective resolutions to ensure optimal product usage and adoption.

  • Customer Education: Provide product demonstrations, lead training sessions, and guide customers through best practices in legal AI, ensuring they become experts in our solution.
  • Product Advocacy & Business Reviews: Develop and present resources such as support articles, best practices, customer documentation, and conduct regular strategic business reviews with key leaders and stakeholders to ensure the continued success of our users.
  • Strategic Growth Support: Create and implement enterprise customer success plans for your accounts to emphasize our product’s value and secure renewals and upsells.
  • Value Focused: Demonstrate deep strategic understanding of your customers’ problems and environment in order to address them and deliver customer value.
  • Trusted Advisor: Serve as a trusted advisor by building relationships across your portfolio of customers, engaging with users at all levels within your customers regularly, managing escalations and conducting regular strategic reviews and feedback sessions.
  • Usage and Adoption: Drive user-level adoption of the platform throughout customer engagements to help maximise usage.
  • Voice of the Customer: Serve as the voice of the customer internally by advocating for the most significant challenges our customers face.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

  • Have 5-10 years of experience in a SaaS enterprise customer success or account management role; experience in legal tech or with legal professionals is a strong plus.
  • Can demonstrate a proven track record of working with enterprise customers (businesses with >10,000 employees)
  • Have exceptional communication and interpersonal skills: you’re presentable, confident, and value-driven in your professional relationships.
