Customer Success Manager (12month FTC)

Are you ready to be a big part of something big? 

At carsales, we’re all about making buying and selling a great experience. Since 1997, we’ve been evolving with the new economy to help people choose how they move today and tomorrow.

When it comes to your career, we want to offer meaningful opportunities that empower you to make a lasting impact. But for that to happen, we strive to feel small, small enough to stay agile, learn across teams, and connect authentically with each other.

With a vision to be the global leader in online vehicle marketplaces, we’re transforming how people buy and sell across the world. We discover new ideas and bring them to life. We continue to grow, and we continue to evolve and we’re not afraid to take bold steps to get there.

This is your opportunity to join carsales in the role of Customer Success Manager on a 12 month fixed term contract. You'll partner with automotive dealers to help them get the most value from their carsales subscription. Managing a portfolio of 300 dealer customers, you'll become their trusted adviser - building strong relationships, providing strategic guidance and using data-driven insights to improve product adoption, customer satisfaction and long-term success. Working closely with Sales, Advertising and Onboarding teams, you'll play a key role in delivering exceptional customer experiences while identifying opportunities to help customers grow their business.

Our Sales teams are full of talented individuals who partner with our customers – whether that be dealerships, agencies, automotive manufacturers, corporates or finance and insurance companies. They’re passionate about ensuring we remain a market leader, providing best in class services and offering tailored solutions to our clients and customers. We have multiple sales teams who look after different client bases, so there are plenty of opportunities to move teams and learn something new if you’re wanting to broaden your skillset.

We embrace hybrid working combining the flexibility of remote work with the energy and connection of in-person collaboration. We champion flexibility and offer a range of policies and leave options to support your wellbeing.
