Client Success Manager
Help some of the world’s leading boards get more from better insight.
BoardOutlook is looking for a Client Success Manager to build trusted relationships with senior clients and help them get real value from a platform used by leading boards around the world.
This is not a Customer Success role built around support tickets and routine check-ins.
You will own client relationships from onboarding through to renewal, become a genuine expert in the BoardOutlook platform and help clients use it effectively. You will monitor engagement, identify risks and opportunities, and work closely with Product and Engineering to ensure client feedback helps shape what comes next.
The role combines Customer Success, strategic account management, product knowledge and commercial thinking.
About BoardOutlook
BoardOutlook is a board performance platform designed to help boards become more effective. The platform supports board reviews, skills matrices, director feedback, CEO evaluations and broader board performance activity. Since the company was founded in 2019, BoardOutlook has worked with hundreds of boards and thousands of directors.
Its clients range from major listed companies across the FTSE 100 and ASX 100 to public sector and not-for-profit organisations. The business now operates across the United Kingdom, Middle East, Asia-Pacific, North America, South America and Europe.
BoardOutlook was built on the belief that better boards create better outcomes for directors, shareholders, employees and society.
The opportunity
You will manage relationships with senior clients including chairs, directors and company secretaries.
You will help new clients get started, guide them in using the platform, understand what they are trying to achieve and ensure they continue to see value from BoardOutlook over time.
You will also use client feedback and usage data to identify risks, improve adoption and recognise opportunities to expand relationships where it genuinely makes sense.
Internally, you will be an important voice for the client, working with Product, Engineering and Sales to improve both the platform and the overall client experience.
What you will be doing
Your responsibilities will include:
- Owning client relationships from onboarding through to renewal
- Building trusted relationships with senior stakeholders
- Becoming an expert in the BoardOutlook platform
- Helping clients understand functionality, configuration and best practice
- Monitoring usage and engagement to identify risks and opportunities
- Supporting retention and identifying appropriate opportunities for account growth
- Bringing useful client feedback and insight to Product and Engineering
- Supporting testing and quality assurance of new functionality
- Resolving client issues quickly and thoughtfully
- Using data to understand account health and client needs
- Maintaining accurate client records and activity in HubSpot
- Helping develop scalable Client Success processes as BoardOutlook grows
What we are looking for
You will likely bring around three to five years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, consulting, professional services or another sophisticated client-facing environment.
You do not need board or governance experience.
You will also bring:
- A strong track record of managing client relationships
- Confidence working with senior stakeholders
- Commercial awareness and an understanding of retention and account growth
- Strong technology confidence and the ability to learn new systems quickly
- Excellent written and verbal communication
- Exceptional organisation and attention to detail
- Curiosity and strong problem-solving skills
- Confidence working with customer data and identifying useful insights
- Strong follow-through and personal accountability
- A collaborative approach across Product, Sales and Engineering
Experience in B2B SaaS, technology, consulting or professional services would be particularly valuable.
What success will look like
You will know you are succeeding when:
- Clients trust you and value your involvement
- Onboarding is smooth and clients understand how to get value from the platform
- Engagement and adoption remain strong
- Risks are identified early
- Clients expand their use of BoardOutlook where there is genuine value
- Client insight helps improve the product and experience
- Your accounts are organised, current and exceptionally well managed
