  • Guide your team in leveraging data and tools such as Salesforce and Gainsight to monitor customer health, adoption trends, and revenue impact, enabling data-driven decision-making and strategic account interventions.
  • Lead your team's engagement in forecasting calls, account reviews, and best practice sessions to share learnings, celebrate wins, and collectively drive renewal KPIs including 70%+ retention rates and strong on-time renewal performance.
  • Develop product knowledge and business acumen within your team, ensuring they understand GitLab's value proposition, competitive positioning, and how to navigate customer escalations and complex negotiations with confidence.
  • Model a customer-centric mindset and empathetic approach, demonstrating how to balance business metrics with genuine concern for customer success and long-term relationship building.
  • Leverage tools daily (such as Gainsight, Gong, and Claude) to generate insights and create compelling reports and presentations that tell the story of your team's performance and inform strategic decisions.
  • What You'll Bring

  • Proven leadership experience managing and developing high-performing teams with strong coaching and mentoring abilities.
  • Deep understanding of renewal forecasting methodologies and ability to translate customer health metrics into accurate business forecasting.
