Customer Success Manager - French Speaking

At Fourthline, our mission is to fight financial crime. We help protect the global financial system by verifying millions of identities for banks, neobanks, online brokers, crypto exchanges, and insurers like N26, Trade Republic, flatexDEGIRO, Nationale Nederlanden, Qonto, Shine, Solarisbank, and more.

As a Senior Customer Success Manager at Fourthline, your focus will be on our strategic and enterprise customers, where your key responsibilities involve ensuring customer retention, driving product adoption and generating and closing up-and cross sell opportunities. You will embody the authentic voice of the customer, comprehending and championing their business needs. Your role is pivotal in translating these insights back into the organization to craft the optimal customer experience. On a day to day basis, you will collaborate with our broader commercial department, Solutions Engineering, Customer Operations, Delivery Managers, Product Managers, Legal, Compliance and other internal stakeholders and take the lead in ensuring a smooth collaboration across these various departments.

Our Customer Success Managers consistently prioritize customer needs, proactively identifying up-sell opportunities, and expertly navigating cross-departmental projects and regulatory complexity. Despite these demanding responsibilities, they still manage to unwind and share a (virtual) cold drink with the team on Friday afternoons. If this resonates with you, you'll find yourself in excellent company.
