About this role
This is not a typical Customer Success role. You'll own net revenue retention across renewals, expansion, training, and customer marketing for a global customer base, with a direct line into shaping the product itself.
We're a 125-person EdTech scale-up powering learning in 140+ countries, helping students and teachers thrive through an intelligent platform that combines rich, interactive pedagogy with smart AI and data.
Why join Kognity?
-
Work on problems that matter – Your work directly influences the lives of teachers and students in over 140 countries. The scale is global, and the outcomes are tangible.
-
High ownership, high expectations – You are trusted to take initiative, make decisions and drive outcomes. Responsibility comes early, accountability is real, and results matter.
-
A fast-moving, high-performing team – You will work with smart, driven colleagues across the globe on complex problems. Standards and expectations are high, feedback is direct, and the pace is fast.
-
Continuous growth is the baseline – Everyone is expected and supported to learn quickly, improve constantly and raise their own bar. If you enjoy responsibility, momentum and meaningful challenge, you will thrive here.
