What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own customer success outcomes—onboarding, retention, account health, and issue resolution—while partnering with Product and Operations to improve workflows and platform experience.

I support international B2B SaaS customers across payroll and hospitality technology platforms, with a day-to-day focus on retention, onboarding support, and CRM data accuracy.

At SimplePay, I currently manage an Irish payroll client portfolio as the primary point of contact for account support, customer guidance, issueresolution, and process improvement. I analyse customer data and account activity to spot risks and operational inefficiencies, and I validate and clean CRM data to improve reporting accuracy and customer visibility.

Before that, I was a Customer Success Manager at BevSpot, where I onboarded new customers, drove product adoption and usage, ran regular account check-ins and health reviews, and troubleshot technical issues in collaboration with Product and Engineering. I also partnered with Sales, Product, and Marketing to relay customer feedback and support product enhancements.

Earlier in my career, I built an operational leadership foundation in hospitality, managing teams of up to 60 staff and leading process, training, stock controls, customer experience improvements, and commercial performance.
