  • Exceed client expectations on response quality, timeliness of responses, and overall customer experience.

  • Educate customers on usage of our platform and advocate for customer needs internally — with a goal of continually improving the customer experience.
  • Be empowered to think independently, creatively, and critically — going above and beyond to deliver the right solution for each individual customer.
  • Liaise with team members across the Watershed ecosystem (Engineering, Product, Sales, Customer Success, Climate Services, and more) to drive positive outcomes for every customer.
  • Explain the technical details of carbon accounting and emissions measurement methodology — and how it applies to an individual customer’s business operations.
