They lead configuration thinking, Boolean searches, monitoring frameworks, dashboards, and alerts, partnering with the Support team to execute technical setup and resolve issues efficiently. At the end of onboarding, the Onboarding Strategist delivers a structured, insight-driven handoff to the Client Success Manager and Account Manager, ensuring continuity of momentum and a clear understanding of client goals, stakeholders, configuration logic, and open risks. Working closely with Support, Product, Engineering, Sales, and Account Management, this role is foundational to the mid-market client experience and to long-term retention. What you’ll do • Lead client discovery and onboarding planning, uncovering underlying business drivers and translating PR objectives into a structured onboarding roadmap with defined milestones and success criteria. • Drive intentional account configuration, designing Boolean searches, monitoring frameworks, dashboards, alerts, and workflow alignment to support each client’s reporting and operational goals. • Partner with the Support team on technical setup and configuration execution, leading the configuration thinking while leveraging Support to deliver against agreed timelines. • Deliver structured onboarding sessions and tailored, role-based training grounded in real PR workflows, ensuring users are confident and active on the platform. • Accelerate time-to-value by monitoring early engagement signals, proactively identifying and mitigating onboarding risks, and maintaining responsiveness to preserve momentum. • Own a clean, structured handoff to the CSM and Account Manager at the end of onboarding, including documented workflows, value achieved, key stakeholders, configuration logic, and open risks. • Maintain accurate Salesforce records of onboarding milestones, key decisions, stakeholder dynamics, and configuration rationale. • Collaborate cross-functionally with Support, Product, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, and Account Management to remove blockers and escalate emerging concerns. • Surface patterns and client feedback to inform onboarding playbooks, configuration best practices, and product enhancements. Decision-Making Authority (Ownership vs. Escalation) Owns: • The end-to-end mid-market onboarding experience from sales handoff through transition to the CSM and Account Manager. • Configuration strategy and design decisions across Boolean searches, monitoring frameworks, dashboards, and alerts. • Onboarding plan, milestone definition, and pace, including raising the flag when momentum is at risk. • Quality and completeness of the handoff to downstream teams. Escalates: • Systemic configuration issues, product limitations, or technical blockers requiring Engineering or Product intervention. • At-risk onboardings or stakeholder dynamics likely to affect retention, to the Director, Customer Experience. • Cross-departmental challenges requiring executive or product-level intervention.
