Description
WE'RE HIRING: DIRECTOR OF PARTNER SUCCESS
We're looking for a Director of Partner Success to own the health, growth, and long-term value of a portfolio of college and university partners. This role is a key member of our Customer Success organization, responsible for driving renewals, expansion revenue, and deep platform adoption as higher education leaders modernize enrollment operations with EdVisorly's AI-powered platform.
As Director of Partner Success, you'll serve as the strategic owner of partner relationships and outcomes across your assigned territory — with direct accountability for renewals, upsells, cross-sells, and long-term partner value. You'll act as a trusted advisor to university stakeholders and an internal driver of customer strategy at EdVisorly, independently leading customer planning, execution, and expansion efforts while influencing cross-functional teams to ensure partners achieve their enrollment and operational goals.
This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for someone who thrives in a fast-moving, high-growth environment, builds trust easily with senior stakeholders, and knows how to turn data into strategy — while staying grounded in mission and purpose.
The ideal candidate is a consultative relationship-builder, sharp analytical thinker, and trusted advisor who understands higher education, can influence executive decision-makers, and knows how to turn a renewal conversation into a long-term, expanding partnership.
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
🔹 Revenue Growth & Retention
- Own renewals, retention, and expansion revenue for all accounts in your territory.
- Proactively identify renewal risks and expansion opportunities, building mitigation and growth plans well in advance.
- Identify, position, and close upsell and cross-sell opportunities.
🔹 Partner Success & Management
- Build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders and day-to-day users, developing individualized customer success plans aligned to partner enrollment goals and contract timelines.
- Drive increased platform adoption, utilization, and value realization across partner institutions.
- Lead recurring partner meetings, delivering data insights and actionable strategies leveraging platform analytics.
🔹 Data, Insights & Internal Influence
- Analyze data trends and partner feedback to inform customer strategy, expansion opportunities, and communicate performance metrics and recommendations to partners and internal leadership.
- Advocate for partner needs by influencing Product, Partnerships, and Marketing teams without direct authority.
- Contribute to scalable playbooks, frameworks, and best practices that improve customer success outcomes across the portfolio.
🔹 Enablement & Execution
- Lead onboarding, post-technical implementation platform training, and best-practice sessions to ensure strong adoption and partner confidence.
- Document successful strategies and lessons learned to inform broader organizational learning.
