About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to join a fast-growing B2B SaaS startup in the AI content space as their first dedicated Operations & Customer Success hire. You'll work directly alongside the founders, owning the full post-sales journey for a portfolio of 40+ enterprise and mid-market clients across 14+ industries. The company's product sits at the cutting edge of AI Visibility / Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO/GEO) — helping brands surface in AI-generated answers on platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.

• Build and improve repeatable processes for customer success, onboarding, and operational workflows

• Work hand-in-hand with the founders on product feedback loops, process improvements, and strategic client initiatives

• Track key customer health metrics and proactively address churn risks

• Contribute to internal tooling and documentation to support the team as it scales
