Execute customer onboarding from paid sign-up through activation, early milestones, and renewal. Run kickoff calls, follow and improve playbooks, manage a small portfolio of accounts, spot and remediate churn signals, and ensure proactive communication between Sales and delivery.
The Role
You are the bridge between a customer signing and a customer succeeding.
This is not a senior strategy seat. It is a hands-on, execution-focused role where you own the first 30-60-90 days of the customer journey — from kickoff through activation, early milestones, and first renewal signal. You work within an existing onboarding org, follow established playbooks, and improve them as you go.
If you have a Sales background and are ready to stop closing and start delivering — this role was built for you.
The Company
AI Acquisition is a multi-8-figure ARR business with 200+ team members, bootstrapped and profitable. We launch and scale information and software products on a marketing and sales engine refined across 12 product launches and $100M+ in ad spend.
This seat sits inside our onboarding org, dedicated to a fast-growing product line. Your job is to make sure customers who come in the door finish, renew, and refer.
Requirements
What You Do
- Own the customer journey from "paid" to "completing and renewing"
- Run structured kickoff calls and keep customers moving through milestones
- Spot early churn signals and execute saves before they escalate
- Bridge what Sales promised to what delivery can actually deliver
- Work within playbooks and flag what needs improving
- Manage a small number of concurrent accounts with consistency and care
- Communicate proactively — no customer should wonder what's happening next
This Role Is Not For You If
- You are looking for a director or head-of-level scope
- You want to build strategy from scratch with no guardrails
- You are not comfortable being measured on customer outcomes weekly
- You need a slow ramp or a fully handed-over runbook before you act
What We're Looking For
Experience
- 2–4 years in a client-facing Sales or SDR role — people who have closed or prospected and are ready to move into a delivery and relationship-focused seat are strongly preferred
- Experience working directly with US or UK customers — comfortable with the communication style and expectations of these markets
- Background in online education, SaaS, coaching, agency, or info-product environments is a strong plus
- Familiarity with CRM or CS tools (HubSpot, Pipedrive, or similar)
Profile
- Polished, professional communicator — written and verbal English at a native or near-native level
- Commercial enough to understand what customers paid for and why it matters
- Empathetic enough to manage relationships without being passive
- Detail-oriented and reliable — customers notice when follow-through slips
- Looking to move from a Sales-heavy role into something more relationship and outcome-focused
Benefits
Compensation & Setup
- Independent Contractor Agreement
- Competitive Base salary, geography-adjusted
- Fully remote, async-first with US and UK overlap
- Direct line to senior onboarding leadership
- Growth track into broader CS or ops scope as the product line scales
