About the Role
The Onboarding Specialist at Canary Technologies plays a critical role in ensuring new hotel clients are successfully set up and activated on Canary products. This role focuses on implementation, configuration, and guiding customers through a smooth go-live experience — not long-term account management. They will lead onboarding calls, configure products to match each property’s needs, and collaborate closely with Customer Success Managers and internal teams. It’s a high-impact, customer-facing position ideal for someone who’s detail-oriented, tech-comfortable, and thrives on helping clients see value fast.
Responsibilities
- Own and manage the end-to-end onboarding process for new hotel clients, from kickoff through go-live.
- Configure and deploy Canary’s suite of products based on each property’s unique operational setup.
- Lead client onboarding calls and training sessions, ensuring clear communication and smooth adoption.
- Collaborate with Customer Success Managers to ensure a seamless transition into post-onboarding account management.
- Troubleshoot onboarding issues quickly and effectively, maintaining a solutions-oriented approach.
- Track and manage onboarding milestones, ensuring timely delivery and high-quality execution.
- Drive product adoption by helping clients understand and utilize key features during onboarding.
- Maintain accurate onboarding records in internal systems and contribute to onboarding documentation.
- Identify opportunities to improve and scale onboarding processes for efficiency and consistency.
- Act as a trusted guide to clients during their first interactions with Canary, setting the tone for long-term success.
Qualifications
- 2+ years of experience in onboarding, implementation, customer success, or project coordination at a SaaS company.
- Strong organizational and project management skills; able to juggle multiple onboardings at once.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain technical concepts to non-technical users.
- Comfort using tools like CRMs, task management platforms, Zoom, and Slack.
- Empathy and patience when working with hospitality clients, especially those new to technology.
- A proactive, solutions-focused mindset and bias for action.
- Ability to work cross-functionally with Customer Success, Product, and Solutions teams.
- Attention to detail in configuring and delivering product setups tailored to client needs.
- Experience in hospitality or familiarity with hotel operations and tech systems (not required).
