The role

Watershed is on a mission to help companies measure, reduce, remove, and report their emissions. Our success is defined by the success of our customers — we’re looking to bring on mission-oriented Customer Success Managers (CSMs) in London, to help our customers successfully embark on their climate journeys.

• Serve as the voice of the customer and provide internal feedback on how we can better serve customers to maximise value and retention; you’ll in turn also help customers understand the value Watershed delivers to their business.
• Become deeply familiar with your customers’ businesses and climate — You’ll educate your customers on the space and will help them hit milestones along their climate journey.
• Help customers understand and use Watershed’s carbon marketplace — integrating carbon removal into their climate plans.

To be successful in this role you:

• Will have 5+ years of relevant CSM experience, in a SaaS organisation working with Enterprise Customers.
• Proven success working within the EMEA market.
• Have a track record of success building relationships at an executive level.
• Ask the right questions to understand people’s underlying needs and can work with sales, product, and services teams to deliver on those.
• Have excellent communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Are extremely organised — you’re able to balance many moving pieces across the various customers in your portfolio, and have a proven project management track record.
• Enjoy learning new things. You’re excited by the challenge of learning a new space.
• Are excited to join a startup and are ready to take responsibility for building a function from the ground up.
• The role may include up to 10%+ travel.

Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles). Watershed has hub offices in San Francisco, New York, London, and Mexico City and satellite offices in Denver, Sydney, Paris, and Berlin. Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week. Certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description if so.

What’s the interview process like?

It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience interview which leads to a virtual or in-person interview panel. We prioritise transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.

At Watershed, we are dedicated to ensuring an inclusive recruitment process. We provide reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities, long-term conditions, mental health needs, religious observances, neurodivergence, or pregnancy-related support requirements.
