About the Role

Vidyard is seeking a Senior Customer Success Manager to join our Customer Success team. Reporting to the Manager of Customer Success, you'll play a key role in driving adoption, value realization, and long-term account health across Vidyard's customer base, with a focus on our mid-market and enterprise accounts.

We believe this role is perfect for someone looking to deepen their strategic CS skills without the pressure of owning a commercial number. You'll focus on what great CSMs do best: building relationships, driving product adoption, mitigating risk early, and making sure customers get real business value from Vidyard. As part of a company that's building AI-enabled products, we're looking for someone who is comfortable using AI tools to enhance their own work and accelerate outcomes. You'll be part of a culture that values experimentation, continuous learning, and finding smarter ways to solve problems.

This is a remote-first role open to candidates located in Canada.

About the Team

Our Customer Success team sits within Vidyard's broader Customer Experience (CX) organization and works alongside Account Management, Support, Product, and RevOps. The team is made up of CSMs at various levels, each managing a book of business across industries and segments. Together, we are responsible for driving customer adoption, retention, and satisfaction post-sale by building strong relationships, monitoring account health, running strategic touchpoints, and partnering with Account Management on renewal and growth opportunities. We're supported by Vidyard's Digital CS motion, which includes automated plays, nurtures, in-app engagement, and AI-assisted programs to help us scale.

What You’ll Work On

  • Own a book of Mid-Market and Enterprise accounts, serving as the primary relationship owner and trusted advisor throughout the post-sale customer lifecycle.

  • Lead customer onboarding, enablement, and training to build a strong foundation from day one. You'll ensure customers are set up for success and deliver ongoing enablement that drives meaningful product adoption.

  • Drive adoption and value realization by building and executing tailored success plans aligned to each customer's business goals, tracking progress, and adjusting your approach as needed.

  • Monitor customer health indicators proactively, identifying risk signals early and leading intervention strategies to stabilize accounts before they become churn threats. You'll document churn drivers, build save plans for at-risk accounts, and own the de-risking motion for your book.

  • Partner closely with Account Management by providing customer context, health insights, and usage data that inform renewal and expansion conversations. You will not own renewals or carry a commercial target in this role, but your insights will directly shape commercial outcomes.

  • Conduct strategic touch points, such as QBRs and EBRs, presenting ROI and value narratives that reinforce the customer's investment in Vidyard.

  • Coordinate cross-functionally with Account Management, Support, Product, and RevOps to unblock customer issues, surface product feedback, and connect customers with the right resources.

  • Serve as a voice of the customer internally, translating customer feedback into actionable insights for Product, Marketing, and leadership.

  • Contribute to the development of playbooks, templates, and scalable processes that strengthen the overall CS function, and mentor other team members as a senior voice on the team.

  • Use AI and automation tools to work smarter across your book, from preparing for customer calls to analyzing usage trends and personalizing outreach at scale.

  • Identify opportunities to embed AI into CS workflows and processes, enabling faster, more scalable execution and sharing what works with the broader team.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3-5+ years of experience in a Customer Success, Account Management, or similar customer-facing role in B2B SaaS, with a demonstrated ability to manage complex, multi-stakeholder accounts.

  • Strong strategic thinking and communication skills. You can translate customer goals into actionable success plans, tell a compelling value story in a EBR, and navigate tough conversations with empathy and confidence.

  • A proactive, ownership-driven mindset. You don't wait for a red flag to show up in a dashboard; you're already two steps ahead, anticipating risk and building the plan to address it.

  • Experience working cross-functionally with Sales, Product, Support, and Operations teams. You know how to pull the right levers internally to get customers what they need.

  • Hands-on experience using generative AI and automation tools to boost productivity, and sound judgment on when to lean on AI versus human insight.

  • A genuine curiosity about customers and the problems they're solving. You care about outcomes, not just activity. You bring energy, resourcefulness, and a collaborative spirit that aligns with Vidyard's values of ownership, user obsession, and driving change together.

Our Tech Stack

You’ll work with technologies like:

  • Salesforce (CRM)

  • Gong (conversation intelligence and forecasting)

  • Statisfy (customer health and book-of-business management)

  • Zoom Enterprise (customer and internal meetings)

  • Slack and Vidyard (internal collaboration and async video communication)

  • Claude (Vidyard's company AI tool, built with custom skills and workflows for our org)

  • AI tools embedded across our workflows, including Vidyard's own AI-powered products like Video Agent and AI Avatars
