How to Apply for Senior Client Success Manager

at Scale to Win

🏢 About Scale to Win

Scale to Win is a unique political tech company founded by experienced campaign organizers, operating fully remotely since 2020. It stands out by providing texting and calling tools exclusively to Democratic and progressive campaigns, having served over 3,000 organizations. Working here means directly contributing to political change while being part of a remote-first, mission-driven tech environment.

About This Role

This Senior Client Success Manager role involves owning strategic accounts from onboarding through renewal, driving revenue retention metrics (GRR/NRR) through proactive relationship management. You'll serve as the 'Quarterback' for complex implementations, lead executive business reviews with data insights, and help build the CSM playbook while mentoring team members. The impact comes from enabling progressive campaigns to effectively use technology to drive real-world change.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with reviewing client health scores in HubSpot, then quarterbacking a complex onboarding call for a statewide campaign. You'd spend midday analyzing usage data to prepare for an Executive Business Review, followed by collaborating with Engineering to resolve a technical blocker. The day could end with mentoring a junior CSM on best practices and documenting processes for the CSM playbook.
