Customer Success Partner Specialist
Car shopping is complicated. At CarGurus, we use data and technology to make it simple, giving people the tools they need to confidently find, buy, finance, or sell a car. The best part? Our work’s made a real impact. We’re the most-visited car-shopping site in the US, and we’re expanding globally. Ready to come along for the ride?
Are you a problem solver looking for your next role in an ever-changing industry? If yes, our Customer Success team is looking for you!
We will be building out our Customer Success organization with a Partnership team. The Customer Success Partner will work alongside the account managers, marketing, and support teams as an additional resource to help existing CarGurus customers get the greatest results from our partnership. This opportunity will allow you to find opportunities for engagement; be flexible and dynamic on how to appropriately support clients; and have a passion for helping clients learn the tools and techniques to help deliver even better value from their CarGurus relationship.
Since this role will not have a play book, you will nee to dive into conversations with dealers to understand their current use of the CarGurus tools and resources. From there, you will develop a plan to further demonstrate those tools. Whether with an account for a day, a week, or months, you will seek the challenge of catering your approach to that specific dealer’s needs and developing a plan on how to make a meaningful impact in a short amount of time.
Candidates must have excellent presentation, analytic, and problem-solving skills. Additionally, candidates should expect to be held accountable for results (as measured by more engaged, happy, retained, and growing customers) and take pride in their achievements.

- Be diligent about the use of CarGurus internal tools and processes to detail activities, learnings, customer feedback, and support the collaborative team-support approach with our clients
- Leverage a detailed understanding of the automotive sales industry and a strong empathy for dealers.
Who You Are:

- Proven track record of consultative approach including: extensive customer service experience, problem solving, solution development, presenting to clients, execution of plan, and value reinforcement
