About SugarAI
SugarAI is redefining CRM for the age of AI.
We’re delivering on the original promise of CRM—turning fragmented customer and revenue signals into clear, prioritized action. Instead of more dashboards or surface-level insights, we help teams focus on what matters most and know exactly what to do next.
More than two decades after our founding, we’re entering a new chapter with clarity and momentum—building intelligent, intuitive solutions that work within the flow of how teams actually sell and serve. We’re focused on solving complex, real-world challenges where relationships, context, and precision make all the difference.
Our global team is united by a shared commitment to impact, ownership, and continuous growth. We create an environment where thoughtful ideas move quickly, where people are trusted to lead, and where flexibility supports how great work gets done.
If you’re excited to help shape what’s next in AI-driven CRM—and build technology that drives real outcomes—we’d love to meet you.
About the Role As the Director, Account Management (or Director, Customer Success), you'll spearhead our customer-centric approach to help our Americas customers achieve measurable outcomes and long-term value with SugarCRM. Your role goes beyond traditional management; it's about cultivating a culture of excellence within your team. In this pivotal position, you will lead a team of Customer Success Managers to develop customer advocates, foster deep customer relationships and drive customer value through adoption and expansion motions.

- Establish and enforce a structured risk identification framework, including early-warning indicators and mitigation plans at least two quarters in advance of renewal.
- Coach and enable CSMs to operate as revenue stewards, ensuring commercial conversations occur well in advance of renewal events and help support expansion conversations that drive both customer value and SugarCRM revenue.
