Full Job Description

Who We Are

Float is the world’s leading software for teams to plan their time. Launched in 2012, we’ve grown every year since and remain proudly independent, self-funded, and profitable. We’re a team of 50 working 100% remotely, and you’ll be partnering with team members based globally, including Australia, Mexico, Italy, Nigeria, Canada, and the USA.

Hear what our team has to say by browsing our blog or reading our Glassdoor reviews. Check out what our customers think of Float from our G2 reviews.

We’re on a scale-up journey, seeking people who thrive in this stage, given the autonomy and the opportunity to do the best work of their career.

Why We’re Hiring For This Role

Mid-market teams (101 to 1,000 people) are our fastest-growing customer segment, and we’re the leading solution to serve their resource planning needs. We’re fortunate to have a product that our customers love, find easy and intuitive to use, and many are growing and expanding their usage of Float across teams within their organization.

That’s where our Customer Success team comes in - they help our customers get the most value out of Float by helping them onboard and train new users, establish workflows, and transition data from their previous processes, all while creating long-term plans to help our customers achieve their business needs.

We’ve supported notable names of people planners, including teams like Atlassian, Edisen, and Stripe. With the relationships we’ve built with our customers, we’ve also influenced product strategy. For example, we recently released key features our customers have been asking for, like an in-app Timer and custom Views shared across teams, with more exciting updates on the roadmap.

We’re focusing on making sure the value that Float brings to our customers’ business is crystal clear and ensuring they understand how we’ll support their business as they grow with Float. Retention is a 2024 company-wide objective at Float, and the Customer Success team is currently focused on churn prevention and building a more proactive churn management approach. Alongside retention, we’re working to establish playbooks to identify expansion opportunities and support our customers’ internal growth. For example, identifying triggers for when to suggest turning monthly subscriptions into annual.

With continual growth, a talented team, and strong data and process foundations, this is an exciting time to join the Customer Success team at Float.
