Why this seat is hard to fill.

Customer success here is not SaaS ticket support. A nearshore CSM needs to understand service delivery, client confidence, reporting rhythm, and renewal risk while working close enough to the US day to act quickly.

How we reach them.

  • Every search starts with the customer success managers who are in the seat right now, in Medellín, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City. The ones who keep accounts alive are why their employer's renewals hold.
  • We reach them by warm intro, prior-network referral, and a researched personal email. Never a job post, never a recruiter blast.
  • Eight active searches a month, so the outreach stays personal enough that someone with a job reads it.

How we check them.

  • A working-call exercise around an unhappy client and weak account momentum.
  • Live communication screen for tone, clarity, ownership, and escalation judgment.
  • Reference checks with the people who actually managed them, run the same way we check references for our own team.

Want the hire trained to run AI in the seat? We offer that as a separate, optional bootcamp — priced on its own, never bundled into the placement fee.

We say no more often than we say yes.

  • You need retention ownership inside US working hours.
  • Client health signals are currently scattered across tools and calls.
  • You want a CSM recruited the way you would hire for your own team.
  • You need SaaS helpdesk coverage.
  • You want a junior client coordinator.
  • You are not ready to define what healthy accounts look like.
