Position Overview

We are seeking a proactive and execution-oriented CX Retention Specialist to support customer retention efforts by working directly with high-risk customers, with an initial focus on non-pay and billing-related churn risk. This role will help identify at-risk accounts, conduct proactive outreach, resolve billing-related friction points, and partner cross-functionally to prevent avoidable churn. Over time, the role will expand to support other churn-risk cohorts, including customers with declining usage, unresolved support issues, or elevated escalation risk.

Key Responsibilities

• Proactively engage customers identified as high churn-risk, initially focusing on non-pay and billing-related risk.
• Conduct outbound outreach through phone, email, and other channels to prevent avoidable suspension and churn.
• Validate and update billing contacts and customer account information to improve communication effectiveness.
• Partner closely with Billing, Support, and Customer Success teams to resolve issues impacting payment, account access, or customer continuity.
• Triage common customer friction points such as portal access issues, password resets, billing confusion, and payment method problems.
• Execute follow-up cadences and playbooks designed to recover at-risk ARR and improve customer retention outcomes.
• Track outreach activity, issue resolution, and retention outcomes in a consistent, measurable way.
• Provide feedback on recurring root causes and operational gaps to help improve internal processes and customer experience.
• Contribute to the development and refinement of proactive churn-prevention playbooks and reporting.
• Over time, support additional high-risk customer segments, such as accounts with usage drops, unresolved ticket backlogs, or other signs of churn risk.

Qualifications

• 2–5 years of experience in Customer Success, Customer Operations, Billing Operations, Support Operations, Collections, or a similar customer-facing operational role.
• Experience handling outbound customer outreach and managing issue resolution across multiple stakeholders. Strong experience in voice-based support for US customers
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to engage customers professionally and empathetically.
• Ability to navigate customer friction points and drive resolution with urgency and follow-through.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
• Comfortable working with data, customer lists, and operational workflows to prioritize risk and track outcomes.
• Ability to work cross-functionally and build effective working relationships with Billing, Support, Finance, and Customer Success partners.
• Problem-solving mindset with the ability to identify patterns and suggest process improvements.
• Experience in SaaS, subscription businesses, or retention-focused environments preferred.
• Familiarity with CRM and support tools (e.g., Salesforce, Zendesk, Freshdesk)

Key Competencies

• Customer Focus
• Operational Discipline
• Problem Solving
• Cross-Functional Collaboration
• Communication and Influence
• Results Orientation
• Attention to Detail

Success Measures

Success in this role will be measured through metrics such as:

• ARR retained
• Successful resolutions
• Reactivation rate
• Time to resolution for billing-related issues
• Number of high-risk customers proactively contacted
• Quality and consistency of customer follow-up and case management

Why This Role Matters

This role is intended to address a meaningful source of avoidable churn by proactively engaging customers before suspension or cancellation occurs. Early results from targeted outreach efforts showed that a significant portion of non-pay churn risk stems from solvable billing friction rather than true customer intent to cancel, making this a high-impact role for revenue protection and customer retention.
