About Relentless

Relentless was created to revolutionize the way that people find jobs using AI and Machine Learning.

We know that the hiring system is broken. It’s become harder than ever to find solid, high-paying jobs, regardless of how strong your professional background. So we’ve made the process easier.

Our goal is to help busy, ambitious job seekers land their dream job in a fraction of the time they’d normally take, and with a fraction of the effort. Some of our clients have secured $50,000+ salary bumps. Others have doubled their income entirely. And we won’t stop until we’ve been able to offer those same outcomes to tens of thousands of people around the world.

So if you’re as passionate as we are about leveling the hiring playing field, continue reading. We might be the right place for you—and you might just be the new teammate we’re looking for.

Our values

We’re a people-driven technology startup, and (for very obvious reasons) we take hiring seriously. We care deeply about your experience and accomplishments. But we care even more about your values and how they’ll align with ours. Here are a few we hold dear:

Proactiveness

We value people who take the bull by the horns. We personally try to proactively identify problems that need to be solved, come up with solutions, and push those solutions forward quickly. We’re looking for the same out of you, too.

Integrity

Our word matters. We do everything we can to speak with truth; if we say we’re going to do something, we do it. And if we fall short (because we’re human and we’ll all occasionally fall short), we own up to it, learn from it, and take accountability to make things right.

Excellence

We have audacious goals. That means we need to be audacious in the expectations we set for ourselves. We want to be the best in the world at what we do, and we want to help each other achieve those aims, too.

Joy

We genuinely enjoy the work we do, and we try to find joy in things both big and small. We believe that trying to be present in the “now” not only increases our effectiveness, it also allows us to enjoy our lives on a day-to-day basis.

Systems Thinking

We’re ops people at heart. We believe in building systems that take the guesswork out of our day to day lives, and then documenting those systems, simplifying them, and finally (if you’re interested in moving into a management role) delegating them to someone else.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a Head of Customer Success who will be in charge of ensuring that each of our clients has as positive an experience with Relentless as possible. You’ll play a pivotal role in the growth of the company; your leadership will be instrumental in driving customer satisfaction and retention, and will ultimately contribute to our mission of revolutionizing the job search process.

What you’ll do

We’re a fast-growing startup, and your responsibilities will vary over time, but these core responsibilities will always remain the same:

  1. Help develop our customer experience strategy. As the Head of Customer Success, you’ll take the lead in developing and executing a comprehensive customer success strategy that aligns with Relentless' mission and focuses on delivering an exceptional experience to all of our clients.
  2. Provide leadership and mentorship. You’ll manage the customer success team, set performance-related targets, and foster a collaborative and results-driven culture.
  3. Oversee the customer onboarding process. You’ll work to ensure new customers have a smooth and successful introduction to the Relentless platform.
  4. Lead conflict resolution strategies. Most of our clients have a fantastic experience with Relentless, but we’re humans, and we’ll fail sometimes. If a client comes to us with problems, you’ll handle any escalations and use a customer-centric approach to help resolve their issues.
  5. Drive customer engagement and retention initiatives. This might include check-ins, training sessions, and user feedback collection, in order to promote product usage, customer satisfaction, and long-term retention.
  6. Analyze data and customer feedback to drive product improvements. We’re always trying to improve. As the Head of Customer Success, you’ll use data, analytics, and (most importantly) customer feedback to measure customer success metrics and work with product to ever improve our product and customer experience.
  7. Serve as the customer’s greatest advocate: You’ll champion the success stories of Relentless' customers, internally and externally, showcasing how the platform has positively impacted their job search and career outcomes.
