César Sánchez
@cesarasarsnchezi
Customer Success & account management leader building retention-first growth engines across SaaS, insurtech, and technology.
What I'm looking for
With over 25 years of experience leading customer success strategy, key account management, and channel optimization across high-complexity industries including SaaS, Insurtech, Pharmaceuticals, and Technology. I’ve built my career around turning post-sales service into a consistent revenue driver.
I build scalable growth engines where retention and Lifetime Value (LTV) are the core pillars of business success. I’m known for translating complex technical requirements into tangible business outcomes, so customers get real value—and the business grows with it.
From Head of Customer Success to my most recent role as Alliances & Channels Manager, I specialize in strategic account management, scalable process architecture, and cross-functional leadership. In roles like Vikua and Vida Insurtech, I reduced churn dramatically (including an 85% reduction) and increased recurring revenue (including a 30% growth through channel partner-led sales), supported by API integrations and KPI-driven execution.
I’m passionate about digital transformation and process optimization, and I’m eager to leverage my strategic vision in a forward-thinking organization that prioritizes client impact and sustainable business growth.
