Customer Success Manager, Financial Services - Strategic
About the role
The Customer Success Manager will act as the "Account Expert" for a select group of Financial Service Strategic clients, navigating and influencing multiple business units to drive business outcomes and product adoption. They will leverage technical authority to lead sophisticated dialogues (APIs, LLMs, integrations) that transform AlphaSense from a software vendor into an embedded, mission-critical business partner. They will exercise full autonomy in commanding virtual and in-person rooms, leading high-stakes executive workshops and onsite "Lunch & Learns" with senior-level stakeholders. They will architect onboarding journeys and trial success plans that build belief from day one by mapping product capabilities to the client's most complex business challenges. They will partner with Sales and Account Management as a commercial strategist to identify organic expansion opportunities and defend renewals by articulating account-specific ROI. They will proactively mitigate risk by synthesizing quantitative usage metrics with qualitative "human" signals, such as sentiment and organizational shifts, to anticipate needs before they appear in data. They will serve as a high-level cross-functional bridge, distilling complex client feedback and stakeholder dynamics into actionable insights for the AM, Product and Support teams.
