Über diesen Job
Head of Customer Success (m/f/x; German speaking)
YOUR MISSION
inne already has a dedicated Customer Success team in place. As the company scales, we need a leader who can develop and elevate the existing team, introduce AI-enabled systems, and ensure Customer Success grows in a way that remains deeply human, compliant, and trustworthy. This role exists to lead, scale, and future-proof Customer Success – balancing automation and efficiency with human care in the moments that matter most.
You are accountable for:
- customer experience quality
- retention and churn reduction
- customer insight as a strategic input to product and leadership
Your goal is to build a Customer Success function that is intelligent, empathetic, compliant, and scalable.
What you’ll be responsible for:
1. Team Leadership & Development
- Lead, coach, and develop the existing Customer Success team
- Build on current strengths while identifying skill gaps and growth paths
- Create clarity around roles, ownership, and decision-making
- Foster a culture of empathy, accountability, and continuous improvement
- Hire selectively as the function scales
2. Scaling with AI & Smart Systems
- Design and implement AI-supported CS workflows (triage, routing, insights, agent support)
- Use AI to improve speed, consistency, and signal detection – without replacing human judgment
- Define clear guardrails for what is automated vs. handled by humans
- Ensure AI-assisted communication reflects inne’s tone, values, and medical-grade responsibility
- Continuously refine systems as customer volume and complexity grow
3. Human-Critical Customer Moments
- Define and own customer interactions that must remain fully human
- Ensure sensitive topics (fertility, contraception anxiety, emotional escalation) are handled with care
- Train the team to recognize nuance and context beyond automation
- Maintain inne’s calm, respectful, and non-judgmental voice across all touchpoints
4. Retention, Insights & Cross-Functional Impact
- Own retention and churn reduction across the subscription lifecycle
- Translate customer conversations into structured insights and recommendations
- Act as the voice of the customer in leadership and product discussions
- Partner closely with Product, Tech, Medical, Ops, and Marketing
- Ensure customer insight meaningfully influences product and experience decisions
5. Customer Experience Architecture
- Own and evolve the end-to-end customer journey post-purchase
- Improve onboarding, education, in-app messaging, and lifecycle communication
- Ensure consistency across support, app, email, and community touchpoints
- Balance scalability with intimacy as the customer base grows
- Own customer service productivity metrics like time to answer, handle time, customer satisfaction with customer service interactions
6. Regulatory-Aware Customer Success
- Ensure Customer Success processes align with IVDR and inne’s quality system
- Understand the boundaries between customer support, education, and medical advice
- Ensure customer-facing communication remains compliant and consistent
- Partner with QA/RA on:
- post-market surveillance (PMS) inputs
- trend identification from customer feedback
- escalation of potential safety or performance signals
- Train the CS team to recognize and escalate:
- adverse events
- misuse or misunderstanding with potential safety impact
- recurring complaints relevant to product performance
Customer Success is not responsible for regulatory decisions – but is a critical signal source.
