About the role

Original posting from Luxurypresence via Lever

Luxury Presence is building the AI growth platform for real estate. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners and other top investors, we're a Series C company that has hit $100M in annual recurring revenue. More than 90,000 real estate professionals, including over 30% of the WSJ Real Trends top 100 agents in the United States, use us to run and grow their business.

Why This Role Matters

Retention is how a subscription business compounds. Having crossed $100M in ARR, Luxury Presence's Client Success organization sits at a pivotal moment: a large and growing client base, a strong CSM team already in place, and a real opportunity to translate great client outcomes into durable, expanding revenue.

We're looking for a Director of Client Success to lead our CSM organization in Austin. You will lead a team of CSM managers and their CSMs, own the gross and net retention numbers, and build the operating model that lets us keep clients successful at scale. This is a builder's seat. You'll shape how the team is structured, how we score client health, how we run renewals and expansion, and how we coach a team to a consistently high bar.

You must be AI-forward. We expect our leaders to use AI and automation to extend team capacity, deepen client coverage, and make sharper decisions from data.

What You'll Own

Retention and Expansion

Own gross revenue retention and net revenue retention for the CSM book

Build and run the renewal and at-risk motions that protect recurring revenue

Partner with the team to grow upsell and expansion revenue across the base

Own a reliable retention and expansion forecast leadership can trust

Team Leadership

Lead, hire, and develop a team of CSM managers and their CSMs

Set clear targets and a coaching cadence so every rep knows the bar and how they're tracking

Manage performance directly, developing top performers and moving strugglers into better standing or out of the role

Build a high-ownership, low-ego culture that clients and teammates want to work with

Operating Model and Systems

Establish segmented coverage so the right clients get the right level of attention

Build a client health scoring model and the playbooks that act on it

Shape the QBR and business-review motion for high-value accounts

Use AI and automation to scale coverage and free the team to focus on the highest-impact work

Cross-Functional Leadership

Partner with Sales, Onboarding, Support, and Product to drive outcomes CS doesn't fully control

Represent the voice of the client inside the company and turn client signal into action

What We're Looking For

Experience

8+ years in Client Success or account management, with at least 3 years leading leaders (managing managers)

Proven track record owning and hitting gross and net retention or renewal and expansion targets

Experience scaling a CS team in a high-growth SaaS or subscription business

Built operating infrastructure before: health scoring, segmentation, playbooks, forecasting

Leadership and Mindset

Deeply execution-oriented with a strong sense of ownership over the number and the team

Hires and coaches well, and is willing to have hard performance conversations

Comfortable operating in complexity and ambiguity, and building where structure doesn't yet exist

Data-driven, and AI-forward in how you scale a team

Nice to Have

Experience in proptech, real estate technology, or serving SMB and entrepreneur clients

Compensation

Base salary: $160,000 - $190,000

Annual performance bonus

Equity

Comprehensive benefits

This is a hybrid role based in Austin, TX, with several days per week in our Austin office.
