Overview

Senior Manager, Customer Success & Support

GetDandy is an AI-powered digital front office for local businesses. We help over 10,000 SMBs across the U.S. capture leads, manage reputation, and automate customer communication using custom AI agents that work 24/7.

We are at $9M ARR, growing quickly, and focused on doing two things exceptionally well:

  • Getting customers to value fast
  • Keeping customers happy, retained, and growing

The Opportunity

We’re hiring a Senior Manager, Customer Success & Support to lead Customer Support and Account Management / Onboarding. This role owns outcomes, not just people.

You will be directly accountable for:

  • Onboarding success
  • Revenue retention
  • Support quality and execution

This is a hands‑on leadership role with a meaningful performance‑based compensation component. If you believe strong execution should be rewarded, this role is built for you.

Compensation

Target OTE: $150,000–$170,000

  • Base (60%): $90,000–$102,000
  • Bonus (40%): $60,000–$68,000
  • Bonus cadence: Quarterly (¼ of target each quarter)

This structure intentionally rewards leaders who deliver measurable results.

How the Bonus Works (40% Variable)

1) Retention / Revenue Churn (50%)

Metric: Monthly revenue churn

Targets:

Threshold: 2.5%

Target: 2.0%

Stretch: 1.5%

Payout:

Miss threshold: 0%

Hit target: 100%

Stretch: up to 150%

2) Onboarding Success (35%)

Metric: % of new customers successfully onboarded within 30 days

“Successful” means:

Account live

Core integration connected

First workflow or campaign launched

Initial training completed

Targets:

Threshold: 70%

Target: 80%

Stretch: 90%

Payout: 0% / 100% / 150%

3) Support Quality & Execution (15%)

Binary, table‑stakes metric (one of the following):

  • CSAT target met
  • SLA compliance met
  • Ticket backlog under target for the full quarter

Miss = 0% | Hit = 100%

Safeguards are in place to prevent “grow fast, churn later” behavior and to keep incentives aligned with sustainable outcomes.
