About the Role

The Customer Success Manager (CSM) is Workday’s bridge between our Professional Services and Production Services teams. As a CSM, you will advocate on behalf of Workday customers and take a team-based approach to helping customers succeed with Workday. You will work directly with customers to improve their overall user experience, working one-on-one with customers who request a more personalised dialogue beyond the already established one-to-many communication channels. You will be accountable for the overall customer wellbeing by supervising customer health, driving customer adoption, supporting the billable areas of the business, and acting as a partner concern point for customer issues. You will be a part of an excellent Services team, working across the DACH region, having control of your own schedule and customer interactions.

What you’ll be doing:

• Build and maintain trusted advisor relationships with executive sponsors, business owners and key operational contacts, aligning Workday to their strategic and operational objectives.

• Develop, own and regularly update outcome‑based Customer Success Plans that define value hypotheses, adoption priorities, milestones, risks and clear success metrics.

• Proactively monitor customer health, using data (usage, adoption, support patterns) and qualitative insight to anticipate risks and drive timely mitigation and recovery plans.

• Drive adoption of existing and new Workday capabilities – including AI, automation, analytics and new product features – through best‑practice guidance, release coaching and targeted enablement.

• Lead regular executive and operational reviews, telling a clear value story, showcasing achievements, and recommending optimisation opportunities and next‑step initiatives.

• Act as the central customer advocate inside Workday, orchestrating the right resources from Services, Support, Product Management, Partners and Sales to address customer needs and opportunities.

• Capture and structure customer feedback to influence product roadmap, usability and service improvements, closing the loop with customers where appropriate.

• Collaborate with Sales and Professional Services to identify, shape and support follow‑on projects and expansion opportunities that drive additional business value for the customer.

• Promote and connect customers to relevant Workday programs (education, communities, user groups, advisory councils) to help them build strong internal capability and governance
