VP of Customer Success in London

We’re Turtl, the world’s first Revenue Content™ platform. Founded in 2015, we’re trusted by hundreds of global brands like Cisco, EY, and Deloitte. From bootstrapped beginnings to angel backing, we secured Series A funding from Octopus Ventures in 2021. ‘What’s Revenue Content™?’ we hear you ask. It’s content that doesn’t just look good; it delivers real business growth. For too long, marketers have poured money into content but struggled to prove its payoff. That’s the revenue gap – where dollars go in but results don’t come out. Turtl closes that gap, turning content into a serious pipeline and revenue player. With Turtl, businesses invest in content with confidence, assured their effort drives real commercial returns. But we’re not just here to help businesses grow. We’re passionate about helping our people grow too. We now have 440+ customers and 80+ team members. So if you’re ready to embrace a new challenge, now is the perfect time to join our dynamic team.

LONDON

Our London office is based at Co-Work Borough, just a short walk from London Bridge.

The space offers a modern, open-plan environment ideal for cross-functional collaboration. It’s used by a variety of teams including Marketing, Customer Success, Sales, Account Management, Finance, Legal, and People. With great local coffee shops, food markets, and excellent transport links, it’s a vibrant base for our London team.
