About the role
About Bask Health
Bask Health is a software platform that enables entrepreneurs, doctors, and healthcare businesses to launch, manage, and grow direct-to-consumer telehealth businesses.
Our platform brings together patient experiences, clinical workflows, pharmacy operations, and commerce tools in one place.
We're an entrepreneurial, product-focused team that values ownership, technical excellence, and building software that solves real problems. Our teams work closely across product, engineering, customer success, sales, and company leadership to bring new capabilities to market and continuously improve the platform.
At Bask, customer success plays an important role in helping businesses get value from the platform. We value clear communication, strong customer relationships, proactive problem-solving, and people who take ownership of customer outcomes.
About the Role
We're looking for a Senior Customer Success Manager, Strategic Accounts to own and grow relationships with some of Bask Health's most important merchant customers.
This role is responsible for the long-term success of strategic accounts, from onboarding and adoption through retention, renewals, and expansion.
You'll serve as a primary post-sale relationship owner for a portfolio of high-value customers using Bask Health to operate and grow their telehealth businesses.
Our customers include entrepreneurs, e-commerce operators, healthcare businesses, and other organizations building direct-to-consumer telehealth experiences.
You'll develop a deep understanding of each customer's business model, goals, challenges, and growth opportunities.
You'll help customers understand how to use Bask Health's platform to support their operations and achieve measurable business outcomes.
This includes working across merchant storefronts, patient experiences, questionnaires, clinical workflows, pharmacy operations, and other platform capabilities.
As a senior member of the customer success organization, you'll take ownership of complex accounts that require thoughtful planning, strong communication, and cross-functional coordination.
You'll build trusted relationships with founders, business owners, executives, and other key decision-makers.
You'll be expected to understand both the day-to-day operational needs of your accounts and the broader business objectives driving their decisions.
You'll lead strategic account planning and develop customer success plans that align platform adoption with customer priorities.
You'll guide customers through onboarding, implementation coordination, product adoption, and ongoing optimization.
You'll proactively monitor account health and identify risks before they become larger retention issues.
You'll work directly with customers to understand adoption challenges, operational friction, and opportunities to improve their experience.
You'll lead regular strategic business reviews to evaluate progress, discuss performance, and align on next steps.
You'll be responsible for preparing accounts for renewals and managing renewal conversations within the approved commercial process.
You'll also identify expansion opportunities when additional platform capabilities or services can support a customer's business objectives.
You'll collaborate with sales and company leadership when expansion opportunities require commercial negotiations or broader strategic involvement.
You'll coordinate closely with product, engineering, technical support, and operations teams to resolve complex customer challenges.
Because Bask Health supports healthcare-related workflows, you'll need to understand when an issue requires escalation to the appropriate clinical, pharmacy, compliance, or technical owner.
You'll advocate for customer needs internally while setting realistic expectations about product capabilities, timelines, and available solutions.
You'll maintain accurate customer records, account plans, renewal timelines, risk assessments, and follow-up commitments.
You'll use customer data, adoption signals, and business feedback to guide your account management strategy.
You'll also help identify recurring customer challenges and contribute ideas for improving onboarding, adoption, and retention processes.
As a senior team member, you may provide guidance to less-experienced CSMs and share effective approaches for managing strategic accounts.
This is an individual-contributor role with significant account ownership, rather than a formal people-management position.
We're looking for someone with substantial post-sale customer success experience, strong commercial judgment, and recent, meaningful exposure to e-commerce businesses or merchant-facing software.
You should be comfortable working directly with entrepreneurs and executives, managing difficult conversations, and taking responsibility for customer outcomes.
Success in this role means building durable customer relationships, improving platform adoption, reducing preventable churn, and identifying opportunities for sustainable account growth.
