San Francisco, California, United States Pavilion Full time
About Pavilion

Pavilion's mission is to revolutionize public procurement by making it more efficient and effective. As a consumer, public servants can quickly and easily complete purchases online. However, at work, this process takes months or even years, relying on outdated technology. This not only affects public servants but also deters businesses from serving the $2T/year industry, resulting in suboptimal outcomes for Americans who rely on public services.

Our marketplace empowers public entity buyers to find and buy from suppliers that have been pre-qualified to sell into the public sector, reducing costs and the time to purchase from months to just weeks or even days. We've become the go-to resource for thousands of public entities that spend over $1.5B annually through our platform. As we scale our supplier side, we're building out our paid supplier offering, Pavilion Pro.

About this Role

As our first Customer Success hire, you'll play a critical role in helping us scale the supplier side of our marketplace. You'll directly manage a book of business, onboarding, managing, and retaining paid suppliers (Pros). In the process, you'll establish zero-to-one processes and playbooks, help the organization quickly learn from our experiences, and shape strategic decisions about customer acquisition and product functionality.

This hybrid role is based in our downtown San Francisco office and is part of Pavilion's go-to-market team. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Onboarding, retaining, and growing Pro supplier accounts
  • Configuring account settings for customers to optimize their experience
  • Owning the customer relationship, serving as a trusted advisor and partner to executive and senior leadership
  • Defining Customer Success playbooks and processes
  • Synthesizing, prioritizing, and sharing learnings cross-functionally to shape product and business decisions
  • Scaling your work, driving zero-to-one processes to improve our playbooks
What You'll Need

To succeed in this role, you'll need:

  • 4+ years of industry experience in customer success, account management, or a similar role at a B2B-focused technology startup
  • Comfort with open-ended problems in unstructured or ambiguous environments
  • An entrepreneurial ownership mentality, with a track record of delivering impact in ambiguous environments
  • Outstanding written and verbal communication, relationship-building skills
  • Demonstrated ability to learn and iterate at high velocity
  • A track record of influencing without authority
Pavilion's Compensation Philosophy

We believe in being generous with equity and meeting needs with salary. Our compensation package includes:

  • Salary: The expected salary range for this position is $110k - $153k
  • Equity: We offer a higher than average equity package compared to companies in our stage
Equal Opportunity

We are proud to be an equal opportunity workplace committed to building a team culture that celebrates diversity and inclusion.
