About the Role:

The Client Success Manager owns the day-to-day relationship for an assigned portfolio of health plan clients. As the client's primary point of contact, you'll make sure programs run smoothly, deliverables land on time, and clients feel supported and heard. You'll build trusted relationships with your client contacts, keep a close eye on program health, and partner with internal teams to solve problems quickly.

This role is focused on strong execution and relationship management. You'll support implementations and launches for your accounts, manage reporting and contract deliverables, and resolve day-to-day client issues—escalating more complex or sensitive matters to Client Success leadership. You'll work closely with internal partners to monitor client health and performance.

Successful candidates will be equally comfortable presenting to client stakeholders, digging into performance data, troubleshooting an operational issue, and bringing together teams to drive a solution.

• Lead recurring client meetings, executive business reviews, performance discussions, and other client communications.
  
• Track account activity, tasks, and deliverables for your portfolio in project plans and other tools.

• Prepare and deliver routine client reporting according to contract requirements and SLAs (including Q/A, delivery, scorecards, etc.).
• Support business reviews by pulling data, preparing materials, and highlighting key program results.
• Manage client complaints and requests for additional information, resolving issues directly where possible and escalating complex or sensitive issues appropriately.
• Manage client invoices and respond to billing inquiries.
• Ensure timely completion and coordination of client compliance/audit requests.
• Coordinate and manage care referrals for members, highlighting critical referrals to the client.
• Partner with internal teams to meet client deliverables, ensure continuity of support after go-live, and drive process improvements.
