Wondery Advertising is looking for a leader of leaders for our Customer Success team. As our customer’s “go-to” experts on Wondery’s advertising processes and services, the Customer Success team earns trust and fosters frustration-free advertiser experiences through seamless project management of campaigns, data-driven optimization recommendations, and ongoing customer education, all aimed at helping advertisers grow their business in podcasting. The leader of this organization will be expected to deliver a vision for their business and the needs of their customers in relation to Campaign Management and Account management. In order to do this, senior leaders obsess over their customers through data and strong business judgment, and apply this with a company-wide context. Senior leaders are trusted to address critical business needs through the leadership of multi-year projects or programs with significant business impact. They therefore need to have demonstrable experience of tackling extremely complex problems, and of ensuring the delivery of their programs through the design and implementation of mechanisms, which may include new tools or system requirements. They have extensive leadership experience, including leading people managers and building mutually beneficial partnerships with key stakeholders.
