Senior Customer Success Manager

Proofpoint is looking for a self-starting, responsible, action-oriented, and self-motivated individual to join our growing field services team. The mission of the Senior Customer Success Manager is to ensure that our customers realize the full value of the products and services they have purchased from Proofpoint, ultimately maximizing renewals and add-on transactions. This is a post sales, customer-centric role in a fast-paced environment that demands interaction with enterprises at senior levels, as well as with technical staff within the traditional IT and Security organization. Successful candidates will have outstanding communication skills with a proven track record of successfully interacting with customers regarding business and technical interests alike; a strong technical background, especially related to cybersecurity; extensive experience driving concurrent projects and issues to completion with little or no direction, and above all a passion for ensuring a world class customer experience.

Your day-to-day :

• Guide customers through each phase of their Proofpoint journey, serving as a trusted advisor through specific activities aimed at providing realized value from their partnership with us.
• Create and maintain Customer Success Plans (CSP) for each of your customers that align with their strategic goals and leverages language meaningful to them. Secure approval from your customers' decision makers on the CSP's content and timeline.
• Meet regularly with customers for health checks to review product adoption and provide them with specific, actionable guidance on how they can get more value from what they already own.
• Be a relentless advocate for customers to help ensure that Proofpoint deployments are successful. Consistently gather feedback to identify trends and acting as the voice of the customer, provide that structured feedback to product management.
• Identify At Risk customers that are not achieving their desired outcome and as needed, lead cross-functional efforts to get those customers back on track.
• Engage appropriate team members from cross functional groups such as Sales, Marketing, Engineering, Support, and Professional Services to help address underlying causes of churn and dissatisfaction.
