Overnight Remote Customer Success Jobs in Bothell, WA

Formations is a Seattle-based startup reimagining financial management for self-employed professionals. We handle everything - taxes, accounting, payroll, S Corporation management, and financial planning - so our customers can focus on the work they love, not the paperwork.
Our customers are business owners betting their livelihoods on themselves. We take that seriously. The people who work with us do too.
About the Role
As a Customer Success Manager at Formations, you own your book of business. A portfolio of self-employed professionals will rely on you as their primary point of contact and trusted advisor - the person who knows their situation, anticipates their needs, and shows up before something goes wrong.
This is a proactive role. You're not just fielding tickets. You're working your accounts like a portfolio: knowing who's at risk before they ask, spotting the members ready for the next step, and staying ahead of the calendar. Your customers are navigating the real complexity of running an S Corporation - payroll, estimated taxes, bookkeeping, compliance - and you're the person who makes that feel manageable.
The ideal candidate has hands-on experience in tax, accounting, payroll, or financial operations and brings the consultative instincts to turn that expertise into customer outcomes. You're operationally sharp, relationship-driven, and comfortable holding both customer advocacy and business objectives in the same hand.

• Customer advocate who can also hold the line on business objectives
• Naturally curious, resourceful, and adaptable in a fast-moving environment
• CRM experience preferred - HubSpot familiarity is a plus

Why Formations

We're a fast-moving team that values people who take ownership, communicate directly, and care about the quality of their work. If you want to be a named resource your customers actually rely on - not a ticket number in a queue - this is that role.
