I'm Michael Woo https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelwoo3/, Director, Customer Success at Teamworks. We're seeing real growth in the DII/DIII collegiate space, and this role lets us match that growth with the level of attention each account deserves. This role exists so our CSMs can take a more personalized, high-touch approach with each account rather than spreading across too large a book. You'll be the main point of contact and the voice of the customer for a portfolio of DII/DIII schools, directly responsible for the two numbers that matter most to our team: gross revenue retention and expansion revenue. This is a chance to own real business outcomes on a high-performing team, in a market that's growing fast and hasn't been fully tapped yet. ## THE ROLE - Own a full portfolio of DII/DIII collegiate accounts and lead each step of the customer lifecycle, from onboarding through renewal and expansion - Drive renewal and expansion conversations that directly move our GRR and Net New ARR numbers - Partner with our team to dig into account data and Gainsight insights, spotting risk and opportunity before it becomes a fire drill - Use AI tools like Claude and Notion AI as a genuine thought partner, starting from the business problem and figuring out where AI actually helps - Build trusted relationships across coaches, compliance staff, and athletic department leadership to deepen product adoption ## WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR ## WHAT YOU MUST BRING - Experience working in collegiate athletics or as a Customer Success Manager with a background in college athletics, we're open to either path but need real grounding in one - Demonstrated ability to run a renewal or pricing conversation with a hesitant customer, not just talk about having done it - Genuine, intentional use of AI tools like Claude or Notion AI, starting from the business problem rather than the tool - Comfort managing an independent book of roughly 100 accounts without heavy day-to-day oversight - Familiarity with some or all Teamworks products ## EVEN BETTER IF - Experience with Teamworks products (i.e. Hub, Compliance & Recruiting) - Background in account management or SaaS customer success - Experience with customer education or training programs ## WHY THIS ROLE This is a chance to own a fast-growing piece of the collegiate sports market and see your work show up directly in the numbers that matter, GRR and ARR. You'll get the pace and tools of a tech company alongside the world of college athletics, and you'll be joining a Customer Success team that's already performing at a high level and building the next chapter of it. This role is not eligible for sponsorship at this time. To all recruitment agencies: Teamworks does not accept agency resumes.
