Posted 3 years ago
We need a passionate Customer Success Manager to join the ranks of our fast-growing company and help us deliver amazing value to our customers.

Who are Silktide?

Silktide’s mission is to make the web better for everyone.

We make software to test and improve websites. Organizations around the world use Silktide to help deliver great web experiences that are accessible to all.

Our customers include FORTUNE 500 companies, universities, governments, and web design agencies.

We cover almost every aspect of the web, including accessibility, marketing, content, and privacy. A big part of our work is helping people understand these complex areas in a way that works for them.

Where is Silktide going?

Silktide is self-funded and is more than doubling in size each year. This growth will continue to accelerate and with that in mind, we need to increase our Customer Success team to handle our growing customer base.

We have ambitious plans to improve the quality of the web. We believe every website should be accessible, compliant, and of high quality. Our Silktide Monitor platform is the first step in our mission. It helps web teams and content contributors with a mixed range of abilities to easily manage hundreds of thousands of web pages.

If you want to help us in our mission to make the web more accessible then it’s never been a more exciting time to join Silktide!

What we’re like

We heavily promote an open culture. Every member of our team keeps a Slack journal, to log their thoughts, work, and ideas. Everyone can read these. Want to know exactly what your CEO is working on? Done.

Freedom is key to Silktide. We’ll give you the freedom to choose your work, your tech, your working hours, and of course, your location! We don’t clock in and out, in fact, we don’t check your hours. As long as your work is done, the rest is up to you.

We’re growing fast and need smart, ambitious, and trustworthy people to join our team.

What you will be doing

As a Customer Success Manager, you’ll ensure our customers are receiving maximum value from our service. This includes building and maintaining relationships with our customers and collecting feedback to help us improve our product

You’ll also help our growing team refine and execute our CS strategy, optimize the customer life cycle and help build a high-performing team.

There will be loads of space for creativity, autonomy, developing your skills, and putting your stamp on Silktide.

You’ll also become a champion for web accessibility. You’ll train and educate on the importance of creating accessible web content and experiences.

Silktide truly cares for our customers. This role isn’t about generating as much money as possible from the customer, it’s about making them successful. If that means the customer downgrading, you should suggest it! We only want staff that will truly care for the customers they manage.
