The Role

We're hiring a Director of Customer Success to lead the team responsible for retaining and growing our venue and vendor customer base. You'll own net revenue retention, build a scalable success motion across markets, and partner closely with Sales, RevOps, Marketing, and Product to make every customer's investment in PartySlate pay off.


What You'll Do

  • Own gross and net revenue retention targets for the full customer base
  • Lead and coach a team of four Customer Success Managers, setting clear goals and a high-performance culture
  • Design a segmented coverage model (high-touch, scaled, and digital) that matches effort to account value
  • Build onboarding, adoption, and health-scoring programs that drive measurable customer outcomes, including inquiry volume and ROI
  • Drive renewals, upgrades, and expansion revenue in partnership with Sales
  • Identify churn risk early and run structured save and recovery plays
  • Partner with RevOps on forecasting and performance analytics
  • Bring the voice of the customer to Product and Marketing to shape the roadmap and messaging
  • Represent PartySlate with key accounts and at industry events


What You Bring

  • 5+ years in Customer Success or Account Management, with 2+ years managing people
  • Track record of owning and improving NRR and churn in a subscription or marketplace business
  • Experience building CS playbooks, health scores, and segmentation from the ground up
  • Commercial instinct — comfortable owning renewal and expansion numbers
  • Strong data fluency with HubSpot or a similar CRM
  • Excellent communication skills and executive presence with customers and internal leaders
  • Bonus: experience in events, hospitality, weddings, or SMB-focused SaaS


What Success Looks Like in Year One

  • A clear, segmented coverage model in place across all markets
  • Measurable improvement in gross and net revenue retention
  • A predictable renewal and expansion forecast
  • A motivated, well-coached team with defined career paths


Why PartySlate

  • Help shape how the events industry finds and books its best partners
  • Join a revenue leadership team building a scalable go-to-market engine
  • Competitive salary, performance bonus, equity, and benefits
