At PowerSchool, we are a dedicated team of innovators guided by our shared purpose of powering personalized education for students around the world. From the central office to the classroom to the home, PowerSchool supports the entire educational ecosystem as the global leader of cloud-based software for K12 education. Our employees make it all possible, and a career with us means you're joining a successful team committed to engaging, empowering, and improving the K12 education experience everywhere.

Our Customer Success team ensures districts and educators realize maximum value from their PowerSchool investment. Through investigative discovery, strategic guidance, and cross-functional orchestration, we drive customer outcomes that increase satisfaction, retention, and account growth.

The Customer Success Manager is an expert in uncovering customer needs, risks, and opportunities through structured conversations and data-driven analysis. This role is responsible for ensuring customers achieve successful outcomes, driving proactive retention strategies, and partnering closely with internal teams to strengthen renewal readiness and expansion opportunities.

This is an individual contributor role requiring strong critical thinking, influence without authority, and exceptional communication.

Your day-to-day job will consist of:

• Lead deep-dive investigative conversations with customer stakeholders to uncover goals, constraints, risks, and growth opportunities.
• Connect qualitative input with usage trends, support patterns, and operational data to form actionable insights.
• Partner with cross-functional teams (Support, Services, Product, Sales, and State/Partner teams) to execute retention playbooks and accelerate issue resolution.
• Ensure customers achieve measurable outcomes tied to renewal timelines and district priorities.
• Guide customers through structured adoption programs mapped to maturity and product footprint.
• Identify and close adoption gaps, increase stakeholder engagement, and drive improvements in CSAT/NPS.
• Continuously evaluate customer health through data signals and leadership engagement quality.
• Proactively surface risks early and lead the creation of "Get to Green" plans with clear actions, owners, and success metrics.
• Co-lead Executive Business Reviews (EBRs) with Sales to communicate business outcomes, product value, risk posture, and forward-looking initiatives.
• Identify expansion signals through investigative discovery and usage insights.
• Collaborate with Sales to build value-based cases for expansion — Sales manages commercial negotiation; you provide insight and advocacy.
• Maintain accurate health and risk forecasts that inform renewal readiness.
• Deliver data-driven recommendations to leadership on trending risks, adoption gaps, and strategic opportunities.
• Contribute to refining scalable CSM processes and best practices.
• Navigate ambiguity with structured thinking, clear prioritization, and outcome-driven decision-making.
• Serve as a senior point of escalation for adoption, value, or experience challenges.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Proven experience leading investigative customer conversations that reveal underlying needs, risks, and expansion opportunities.
• Demonstrated ability to orchestrate cross-functional initiatives without direct authority.
• Experience with health/risk forecasting, renewal readiness, and account planning.
• Strong analytical and storytelling skills — ability to translate data into actionable insights.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with EdTech SaaS, K12 districts, public sector, or enterprise accounts.
• Familiarity with renewal motions and value-based selling concepts; ability to craft outcome aligned narratives.
