The Challenge

The Customer Success team is at the heart of Qualtrics and is responsible for the health of our customer base through their full lifecycle. We have an industry-leading commercial performance owing to our strong NRR, Renewal and Expansion rates. We are looking for a strategic, senior leader to continue to build our EMEA CS organisation by enhancing the ways we help customers, improving efficiency, and further driving commercial performance as we scale in the region. 

In addition to leading the EMEA Customer Success organization, you will be a key member of both the Global Customer Success and broader EMEA Leadership teams. These teams drive strategy, operations and results across the global function and EMEA region.

This is a unique opportunity to build a category and change the way that companies, governments, and academic institutions design and improve experiences for their customers, employees, and communities across EMEA. 

As a senior leader, you will be influencing, designing, and implementing the future of the Qualtrics business both globally and locally. You will: 

• Own Qualtrics’ full renewable book of business across EMEA, including adoption, renewals, and expansion in SMB, Commercial, and Enterprise accounts across every industry.

• Drive category thought leadership 

The Expectation for Success

You will know you are doing an extraordinary job when your region consistently retains and grows a successful customer base, exceeds renewal and expansion targets, and improves process efficiencies.

In this role, you will be shaping the future of our Customer Success organisation and operating model with the Global Customer Success Leadership Team. 

You will also be partnering with heads of all major functions at Qualtrics including Product Management, Services, Marketing, Ecosystem and Sales to ensure we contribute to Qualtrics’ growth and provide the highest level of service to our customers.

The successful candidate must be a strong people leader that is comfortable developing strategies for success whilst simultaneously driving operational improvement. You have demonstrated strong organisational skills, are comfortable with ambiguity and solving previously unseen problems and can juggle competing priorities.
