The Customer Implementation Manager plays a pivotal role in fulfilling this mission by ensuring that new customers are onboarded quickly, engaged effectively, and empowered to derive value from our platform from day one. This role is essential to our ability to deliver on our promise of consistency and care, helping our customers achieve success and ensuring long-term retention by facilitating smooth digital transformation and adoption.

Manage expectations, provide regular updates on project progress, and address issues promptly, ensuring effective communication at all levels (including economic decision-makers, managers, and end-users).
- Training and Guidance: Facilitate training and configuration sessions for customers to ensure they understand how to use Voyc’s features and derive maximum value. Ensure the training is tailored to customer needs and clearly communicates how the solution addresses their pain points.
- Collaboration with Customer Education Team: Work closely with the customer education team to ensure that onboarding content, courses, and certifications are relevant and valuable for each customer’s specific onboarding needs.
- Risk Management: Identify potential risks or blockers during implementation and proactively develop mitigation strategies to avoid delays or roadblocks. Use strong problem-solving skills to address issues quickly and keep projects on track.
- Customer Feedback and Continuous Improvement: Gather customer feedback to identify pain points and improvement areas, feeding insights back to the product and customer education teams for continuous refinement of the implementation process and training content.
- KPI Tracking: Track and report on key performance indicators (KPIs) such as time-to-value, customer satisfaction, and project delivery efficiency, ensuring that projects stay on track and customer needs are met.
