Manager, Customer Success

About Niural

Niural is the AI-native global PEO for the modern workforce. Our mission is to give every growing company enterprise-grade payroll, benefits, and compliance without the enterprise overhead. Built from scratch rather than retrofitted onto legacy systems, Niural combines payroll, PEO/ASO, global EOR, benefits, and vendor payments into one intelligent platform. Powered by EMMA, our AI coworker that executes — not just advises — Niural runs payroll and compliance across 150+ countries with near-perfect accuracy. Backed by a $52M Series A and $200M+ in annualized gross revenue on our PEO product alone, we're building the financial infrastructure that companies run their businesses on.

About the Role

You will report directly to the Director, PEO Operations and serve as the first leadership layer for the Customer Success team. You will be responsible for team performance, coaching, client issue resolution, operational consistency, and helping build a high-accountability, service-driven culture as the team scales.

Niural AI operates at a fast pace. Priorities can shift, processes continue to evolve, and we need leaders who can make sound decisions, support their teams, and keep work moving without waiting for perfect information.

Cross-functional coordination with Benefits Operations, Payroll, Implementation, Tax, Invoicing, and Engineering teams

Visibility into client health, recurring service issues, operational risks, and recommended process improvements

Support for building a consistent and scalable client experience across the customer portfolio

What We’re Looking For

3+ years of experience managing a Customer Success, Client Services, Account Management, or Operations team in a B2B environment

Proven ability to coach, develop, and hold team members accountable in a structured and supportive way

Strong client judgment, including knowing when to resolve directly, involve internal partners, or escalate appropriately

Experience managing through systems, processes, metrics, and service standards — not just relationships
