The Customer Success team at Affinity are the trusted private capital advisors who ensure every Affinity customer maximizes the value of their network and relationships. We deliver this by combining deep industry expertise with proactive guidance, helping customers adopt best practices that drive measurable business outcomes.

The Role

As Director of Customer Success, Scaled Programs you\u2019ll architect and execute a sophisticated digital-first customer success strategy that drives exceptional outcomes for our 1,500+ scaled customer segment while establishing this portfolio as the strategic testing ground for programs that benefit Growth, Mid-Market, and Strategic tiers. Reporting to the VP of Customer Success, you will lead a team of scaled Customer Success Managers while working cross-functionally with Marketing, Product, Revenue Operations, and Finance teams to create AI-forward customer journeys. You will be accountable for adoption leading indicators that directly influence user and account retention, establishing unified measurement frameworks that transform digital initiatives from foundational programs into strategic, revenue-correlated business drivers.

What will I be doing?

Strategic Digital CS Leadership and Framework Development :

  • Establish and own unified measurement frameworks with revenue-correlated North Star metrics to evaluate digital initiative effectiveness across all customer programs.
  • Develop adoption leading indicators that directly influence user and account retention across the scaled customer segment.
  • Create comprehensive AI-forward scaled models for predictive engagement, risk detection, and personalized customer experiences that move beyond traditional support models while serving as an innovation laboratory for methodologies that benefit Growth, Mid-Market, and Strategic segments.

Cross-Functional Process Design and Leadership :

  • Create clear ownership frameworks and swimlanes to eliminate ambiguity in digital program execution across Customer Success, Marketing, Product, Revenue Operations, and Finance Teams
  • Lead customer journey mapping initiatives identifying key moments for automated intervention across the entire user lifecycle, partnering with Marketing and Product to deliver integrated experiences.
  • Collaborate with Finance to optimize billing and licensing models based on customer usage patterns and feedback from the scaled segment.
  • Technology and Knowledge Systems Optimization :

  • Optimize and fully leverage existing tech stack capabilities (Gainsight, Pardot, Service Cloud, Amplitude, Segment) to create cohesive data ecosystems for behavior-driven engagement.
  • Architect automated journey orchestration frameworks for scaled customer engagement.
  • Lead knowledge center strategy, systematizing and formalizing current resources into cohesive, just-in-time customer support systems that serve as strategic customer enablement platform.
  • Partner with Revenue Operations and CS Operations to evaluate and test new AI tools and technologies that enhance scaled customer engagement and operational efficiency.
  • Team Leadership and Scaled Program Execution :

  • Recruit, mentor, and develop a high-performing team of scaled Customer Success Managers who manage 300+ customers through sophisticated digital engagement strategies.
  • Build and optimize scaled CSM operating models including territory design, customer segmentation, and customer management frameworks.
  • Foster a data-driven culture focused on automation, efficiency, and measurable customer outcomes.
  • Digital Engagement Channel Expansion :

  • Design and execute digital-first customer success programs that provide optionality across channels (self-serve when possible, human contact when needed).
  • Expand digital engagement capabilities including in-app guidance, email campaigns, webinar programming, and integrated Marketing partnerships.
  • Implement sophisticated customer segmentation by ARR / usage to optimize program delivery and resource allocation while developing proven methodologies that can be adapted for other customer segments.
  • Metrics and Strategic Accountability :

  • Build sophisticated reporting frameworks and dashboards to track health metrics and attribute lift from digital CS programs.
  • Establish robust data hygiene frameworks and consent management to prevent customer communication overlap.
  • Drive experimentation culture through A / B testing of customer engagement strategies, implementing risk mitigation throughout the customer journey.
  • Qualifications

    Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every qualification. At Affinity, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t perfectly align with the qualifications above, we encourage you to apply anyways. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

  • Expertise in customer success platforms and analytics tools (Amplitude, Segment) for behavior-driven campaign design, with experience evaluating and implementing modern customer journey orchestration solutions.
  • Strong background in AI integration for customer success including predictive modeling and personalized engagement strategies.
  • Experience architecting cross-functional processes and RACI frameworks between Customer Success, Marketing, Product, Revenue Operations, and Finance teams.
  • Exceptional communication and facilitation skills with proven ability to work effectively in matrixed organizational structures.
