You will partner closely with other Provenance team members, including the Customer Account Manager, Product Lead, Technical Implementation & Support.

  • Helping customers articulate and measure the actual ROI they receive.
  • Work closely with customer and internal teams to ensure customer renewals, resolving issues promptly and minimising customer churn. Provide visibility into the likelihood of an assigned customer’s renewal and identify and work to resolve at-risk renewals.
  • Identify areas for expansions within existing customer base through upselling and cross sells. Deeply understand our customers needs and feed insights into the product process, working closely with the Product Lead to ensure the product most effectively delivers value to our customers.
  • Promote and manage transitions to current product releases. Assist customers in planning and executing upgrades and ensuring they are current.
  • Build customer advocates who will speak on behalf of Provenance as a reference and share success stories of using Provenance software.
  • Develop and maintain key processes to ensure scalable growth within Customer Success and internally organise the Provenance team to deliver the best possible service for our customers.
