About this role

Weekly office requirement: Mo/Tue/Thursday Employment type: Permanent At GWI we’re always looking for extraordinary people who thrive on making an extraordinary impact. Right now we’re looking for a VP, Customer Success to lead the strategy and execution of retention and expansion across our Enterprise, Majors and Mid-Market customers globally. You'll understand their distinct risk profiles, buying behaviors, and points of leverage—with a dedicated Customer Success Leader for each segment (Enterprise, Majors, and Mid-Market) reporting directly to you.

Reporting directly to our CRO, you'll build the coverage model, forecasting rigor, and leadership bench that make renewals and expansion a predictable driver of growth. This is a hands-on leadership role, not a transformation project. You'll inherit strong teams and real client relationships, and you'll own the performance, coaching and development of your Senior Directors and their teams – from our largest, highest-touch enterprise accounts through to segmented majors and mid-market books of business.

Sounds great, what will I be doing? What you'll be responsible for: GRR & NRR targets across Enterprise, Majors and Mid-Market, agreed directly with the CRO. The Senior Directors of Customer Success leading each segment – you own their performance, development and progression, plus the wider CSM population beneath them. Lifecycle optimisation and community engagement. Execute high-impact initiatives—from onboarding through to user communities—that directly protect renewals and accelerate NRR growth.

Escalation for your highest-value enterprise clients. You're the senior point of contact and trusted advisor on our data and methodology. Drive high-impact programs and initiatives—including customer onboarding and user community engagement—that directly optimize the customer lifecycle, maximize renewal rates, and expand Net Retention Rate (NRR). It’s also fun; shaking things up is what working for GWI is all about. You’ll need to be flexible, comfortable with continuous change, and working in a high-tempo environment.

What do I need to bring with me? We're looking for significant experience of progressive Customer Success or Account Management leadership, with proven ownership of renewals and expansion for a segmented book of business. You won't tick every box, but you'll have the judgement to run your segments with autonomy from day one. Here's what we need: 👉 Segmentation and coverage strategy Design for the segment, not a single playbook.

Build distinct coverage models for Enterprise/Majors (high-touch, high-value, low-volume) and Mid-Market (higher-volume, target-list-driven). Match team structure, cadence and tooling to each. Own the numbers. Forecast and report gross and net revenue retention, expansion revenue and health scores – feeding straight into the CRO's view of the business. 👉 Team leadership and talent Develop the Customer Success Managers .

. Invest in their growth deliberately – clear delegation, stretch ownership, and coaching that build them toward their next role. Build a bench. Hire, coach and retain CSMs and managers who can run their book with autonomy. Fast ramp time, strong retention .

Sees challenges, obstacles and failures as opportunities. Attitude matters just as much. We want people who think big, ask why, and show respect – to everyone, at every level, all the time.
