About this role

You will:

Team Leadership & Development

- Manage, coach, and grow a team of Client Success Managers, including performance management, career development, and day-to-day support

- Build hiring plans and take part in recruiting as the team's needs evolve

- Set clear expectations and rhythms for how the team monitors account health, triages issues, and communicates status internally

Client Health & Escalation Ownership

- Own client satisfaction and health outcomes; support the client relationship across its full lifecycle - from implementation and onboarding, through client education, ongoing reporting, and renewal execution

- Act as the ultimate internal escalation point for the most critical, executive-level client issues, mobilizing cross-functional leadership (Product, Clinical, Legal, executive team) as needed to ensure clarity and accountability

- Lead resolution of the highest-stakes client pain points, making sound judgment calls under pressure and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks

Commercial Partnership & Cross-Functional Alignment

- Partner with Account Executive leadership on the connection between client health and renewal and expansion strategy, making sure CS insights are structurally built into commercial planning

- Represent Client Success in cross-functional and executive conversations as a credible voice on client health and risk

- Coordinate with Product, Clinical, Operations, and Support leadership to resolve systemic issues affecting multiple accounts

Utilization & Performance Reporting

- Partner with Data & Analytics team to create and maintain client-facing utilization and performance reporting across the CS portfolio, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and timely delivery

- Monitor program-level data, including member enrollment, utilization, engagement, and clinical outcomes, to identify trends and surface proactive action items

- Ensure the CS team can confidently interpret and present data, ROI, and clinical metrics that demonstrate value to clients

- Work with cross-functional teams to strengthen the tools and dashboards used for internal reporting

Program & Process Leadership

- Own Client Success playbooks, health-scoring methodology, and escalation frameworks, and evolve them as the client base grows

- Establish and maintain reporting cadences that give leadership visibility into account health and risk

- Lead initiatives to improve how the Client Success function operates, including tooling, process, and team structure

You are:

- A people leader who genuinely enjoys coaching others and helping them grow

- Calm and decisive under pressure -- the person a team turns to when a client situation gets complicated

- Comfortable operating at both the strategic level (playbooks, planning, cross-functional alignment) and the tactical level (jumping into an account when needed)

- Someone who builds trust easily with senior stakeholders, both internally and with clients

- A clear, structured communicator who keeps people informed without over-explaining

- Genuinely curious about process -- always looking for ways to make the team's work more consistent and scalable

You have:

Required:

- 10+ years in healthcare services, consulting, or clinical services in a client-facing or client success role, including experience managing a team

- A track record of stabilizing at-risk client relationships and driving satisfaction outcomes

- Familiarity with health plan lines of business (Medicare Advantage, Managed Medicaid, Commercial) and how health plan/health system contracting works

- Experience partnering with a commercial or account management function on renewal and expansion strategy

- Excellent communication skills and comfort presenting to senior internal and external stakeholders

- Proficiency with CRM platforms (Salesforce or equivalent)

Preferred:

- Experience with food-as-medicine programs, nutrition benefits, SDOH interventions, telehealth, wellness, or related health services

- Experience building or scaling a client success function from an early stage
