Job description
About Kojo
It’s time to build. Whether it’s creating more housing, upgrading our infrastructure, or adapting to climate change, one thing is clear: the construction industry is at the center of solving our biggest problems. We’re making buildings cheaper and easier to build by transforming the way commercial construction companies buy their materials. Join us.
Founded in 2018, Kojo is now one of the fastest-growing construction technology companies in the world. Construction accounts for $10 trillion in global spend annually and we can’t live without its output - our roads, schools, hospitals, and offices. Despite this, there’s been very little innovation over the past 70 years in how materials - which constitute up to 40% of project costs - are bought and sold. This is our opportunity.

The Onboarding CSM must be an excellent project manager of their book of business and committed to seeing our customers adopt and succeed on our platform.
This role will include:
Leading the implementation process for Kojo’s largest customers quickly and with a high degree of responsiveness and service, as their main Kojo point of contact, including planning calls, product trainings, and regular engagement as needed to ensure successful results

Ensuring a healthy book of business by identifying churn risk and developing strategic save plans for any customers at risk
