Customer Success Specialist

Description

Are you a relationship-builder who thrives on turning customers into long-term champions? Do you love the idea of guiding clients through onboarding, solving problems before they start, and keeping the customer experience running smoothly?

IdeaTek is looking for a Customer Success Specialist to own post-sale relationships with our business customers—ensuring satisfaction, retention, and long-term growth. You’ll be the friendly face (or voice) that steps in once a contract is signed, helping guide implementation, following up after install, and building the strategy behind ongoing client touchpoints. From day-to-day communication to discovering upsell opportunities, you’ll be a key part of our customer journey.

A Day in the Life

You’ll start your day by checking customer success tasks and reviewing upcoming installs or touchpoints. You might send a follow-up email to a recently installed business customer, confirm services are set correctly, or flag a potential upsell to the sales team. Later, you could help schedule a discovery meeting or hop on a call to resolve a lingering post-install issue. You’re the steady, reliable point of contact that keeps customers informed and confident in their partnership with IdeaTek.

What You’ll Do

Key responsibilities include:

• Guide new customers from the close of sale through install—ensuring a smooth onboarding experience
• Schedule and support customer discoveries, installations, and follow-ups
• Confirm service accuracy and satisfaction before the first bill is issued
• Create success plans for each client, documenting key needs, timelines, and account details
• Own ongoing customer touchpoints: follow up, check-in, and retention outreach
• Support account renewals and identify upsell opportunities through relationship-building
• Maintain organized records of each customer’s journey and communication
• Collaborate across departments to solve issues, improve handoffs, and advocate for customers
• Help build scalable systems to ensure all accounts receive proactive care and follow-up

What Will Help You Stand Out

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience in telecommunications or internet services
• Familiarity with CRMs, ticketing systems, or customer support platforms
• Passion for customer experience and a natural drive to go the extra mile
• Ability to communicate across departments
• Strong retention or upsell instincts and an ability to spot opportunities

Desired Attributes

Beyond the qualifications, these attributes are what make someone a great fit for our team:

• Relationship-focused with strong emotional intelligence
• Calm, confident, and clear communicator
• Resourceful and eager to solve problems
• Results-oriented with a desire to grow accounts, not just maintain them
• Curious, open to feedback, and always looking for ways to improve the process
