  • Serve as the strategic conduit between client end-users and internal Product Management teams, advocating for features and usability improvements that solve critical industry challenges
  • Develop scalable best practices and playbooks for onboarding and continued education

Requirements:

  • 1+ years of professional experience in consulting, professional services, customer success or account management
