Director of Customer Success Operations
About the Role
Securly is looking for a Director, Customer Success Operations to lead the systems, processes, and people behind our entire post-sale customer journey. You'll lead our CS Ops and Renewals function—a CS Ops Manager, a CS Ops Specialist, and a team of Renewals Specialists—and own Vitally, our Customer Success platform, as the operational backbone of the business.
This is a builder's role. Vitally has been live for about a year, and the next chapter is yours to write: deepening adoption, sharpening health scoring, automating renewals workflows, and turning good instincts into a repeatable, data-driven system that scales. You'll be the operational thought partner to CS executives—using data and process design to ensure customer growth and success directly fuel Securly's growth.
Location: Remote (U.S.)
Type: Full-Time, Exempt
Reports to: SVP, Customer Success
What Success Looks Like
- In your first 90 days: Audit Vitally configuration, current CS Ops and renewals workflows, and team structure. Build relationships with your team and ship improvements: sharper health scoring, better dashboards, and a more programmatic renewals process.
- By 6 months: Drive measurable gains—better renewals efficiency, stronger forecast accuracy, and dashboards that CS and company leadership rely on to run the business.
- By your first year: Own a mature CS Ops and Renewals function that consistently meets or exceeds retention targets, backed by a trained, accountable team and a Vitally instance that scales with Securly's growth.
Responsibilities
- Lead the team:
- Hire, coach, and manage a team of a CS Ops Manager, a CS Ops Specialist, and Renewals Specialists—setting clear goals and holding the team accountable.
- Structure team capacity and coverage to match renewal volume and customer segmentation.
- Build a real growth path for your team, from onboarding through career development.
- Own the process:
- Design, implement, and continuously refine scalable playbooks that support the entire post-sale customer journey.
- Own the end-to-end renewal process—timely, accurate, and built to minimize churn.
- Design and run a programmatic renewals process suited to a high-volume, complex customer base.
- Turn data into decisions:
- Own customer health scoring, tracking, and measurement across the install base.
- Define and build the dashboards CS and executive leadership use to manage the business.
- Surface customer insights to Product, Support, and Sales to drive real improvements.
- Build the tech stack:
- Serve as the internal owner of Vitally—driving adoption, configuration, and continuous optimization.
- Identify, build, and implement Agentic AI and automation that genuinely moves the needle on CS Ops and renewals outcomes.
- Manage the broader tech stack, including integrations with Salesforce and other GTM systems.
Requirements
- 3+ years leading a Customer Success Operations, Revenue Operations, or Renewals team—this is a leadership track record, not an individual-contributor background, with proven experience scaling CS tools, systems, and AI.
- Real examples of scaling a CS Ops function—taking a team, process, or system from early-stage to measurably better performance, with strong examples of building tools, systems, and process, and applying AI.
- Hands-on experience building tech, systems, and automation—you've architected workflows, integrations, or automation inside a CS platform (Vitally, Gainsight, Totango, ChurnZero, or similar) and a CRM like Salesforce or HubSpot, not just used tools someone else set up.
- Applied experience with Agentic AI and automation—you've actually built or implemented AI-driven workflows (like automated health scoring or renewals triage), not just explored the space.
- A track record of building and coaching a team, with strong data analytics skills and fluency in core SaaS metrics (GRR, NRR, churn, CLV, NPS, CSAT).
- Strong project management skills and the ability to manage multiple cross-functional initiatives at once.
- Experience in K-12, EdTech, or education-adjacent SaaS is a strong plus.
