Proudly named one of AFR's Best Places to Work in 2025, we're the market leader in Australia and New Zealand - and now we're growing our 120-person team into the UK. Our scale up vibe keeps things lively. We've come a long way in 15 years, and seeing what we've achieved in that time gets us pretty excited for the next 15. We're passionate about setting clear, fair expectations and delivering results, with a genuine commitment to wellness and happiness that you'll truly experience. We've been recognised twice on the AFR Best Place to Work list, so we care a lot about making sure we're a place people want to work. The Role We're looking for a Customer Success Manager to support the growth of a healthy, engaged construction network across the UK. This role is critical to ensuring builders, subcontractors, and suppliers get real value from E1 - from onboarding through to renewal. Reporting to the General Manager - UK, you'll be part of a small, close-knit UK team working closely with Sales, Product, and Support. You'll own onboarding, ongoing engagement, renewals, and inbound support, while also helping shape customer success processes as the UK business continues to grow. This is a hands on role suited to someone who enjoys variety, thrives in lean environments, and is comfortable balancing relationship management, operational work, and commercial outcomes. What You'll Do Onboard new builders and subcontractors, ensuring they understand how to use the platform and get value quickly. Deliver tailored training sessions (remote and in person) to support adoption and engagement. Proactively manage a portfolio of builder accounts, running health checks, identifying churn risks, and driving renewals. Support inbound customer enquiries from builders and subcontractors via email and phone. Help build and maintain a vetted, high quality subcontractor network. Collaborate closely with Sales on trials, onboarding handovers, and renewals. Capture customer feedback, share insights with Product and the wider business, and close the loop with customers. Contribute to initiatives and experiments designed to improve engagement, retention, and revenue. Track customer health, engagement trends, and risks using data and reporting. About You You're customer focused, commercially minded, and comfortable wearing multiple hats. You enjoy helping customers succeed, but you're also confident having renewal conversations and holding firm when needed. You'll bring: Experience in a Customer Success, Account Management, or Support role within a B2B SaaS environment. Confidence onboarding and training customers on software products. Strong communication skills, with the ability to explain complex concepts clearly and practically. A proactive mindset - you spot risks early and take action without being asked. Comfort working in a small or scale up environment where priorities can shift and structure is still evolving. An interest in the construction or construction technology space (highly regarded, not essential). A collaborative approach and willingness to work cross functionally. Strong organisational skills and attention to detail. Championing our values matters to us. You'll be joining a team that values transparency, ownership, curiosity, and solving real problems for real people. Perks There's more to working at E1 than just creating game changing technology for the construction industry. We know that to reach the goals we've set for ourselves, we need to look after our team, our shareholders, and the industry we serve. Here are some of the benefits you'll enjoy: Flexible working hours and hybrid working. Three fully funded therapy sessions per year via Talked, with access to 100+ licensed therapists. A generous annual budget for professional development. Five days of entrepreneurial leave each year to work on your own side projects.

OUR MISSION To become the car-changing destination of choice. By combining technology, media and deep automotive expertise, we've turned how people buy, sell, advertise and lease cars on its head. What started as a simple reviews site is now one of the largest online car-changing destinations in Europe. Last year alone we grew over 50% with nearly £3bn worth of cars bought on site, while £1.8bn of cars were listed for sale through our Sell My Car service. In 2024 we went big and acquired Autovia - creators of AutoExpress and Evo magazines - doubling our audience overnight. Together we now have one of the biggest YouTube channels in the world with almost 10m subscribers and over 1.1 billion annual views, while we sell 1.2 million print copies of our magazines and have an annual web content reach over 350million. And we're a long way from done! BUSINESS Join us on a mission to transform how 300+ commercial and operations professionals work every day - by putting Salesforce at the heart of our business. As part of the Business Innovation team, you won't just maintain a system - you'll contribute the evolution of our internal platform strategy. Your role is to empower teams by removing friction, replacing redundant tools, and ensuring Salesforce becomes a single source of truth for how we operate and grow. We're looking for someone who sees beyond config and code - someone ready to take ownership, drive adoption, and shape the future of our platform. You'll play a key role in bringing every user fully onto Salesforce, embedding best practices, and preparing the business to harness automation and AI at scale. If you're a Salesforce admin - with the vision to drive impact and the skills to bring others with you - this is your opportunity.

Create and maintain reports, dashboards, and list views to support sales and operations reporting needs, and help users self serve through clear documentation. Own data quality routines: monitoring data hygiene, assisting with imports and updates (where appropriate), identifying duplicates, and flagging data issues and trends. Support user onboarding and adoption: contribute to enablement materials (how to guides, FAQs, release notes), and assist with training sessions for new joiners and existing teams. Assist UAT and release readiness for new features: coordinate testing feedback, log defects, validate fixes, and support post release checks. Implement small process improvements and basic automation using Flow and standard approvals, following team patterns and getting reviews for higher impact changes. Contribute to continuous improvement by documenting existing processes, highlighting technical debt, and suggesting pragmatic enhancements that reduce manual work. KEY REQUIREMENTS 1 to 2+ years of Salesforce administration experience (or equivalent hands on experience) supporting business users. Comfortable with Salesforce fundamentals: objects, fields, page layouts, record types, validation rules, and permissions (profiles, permission sets, roles). Working knowledge of Salesforce reporting (reports, dashboards, list views) and the ability to translate stakeholder questions into useful outputs. Basic to intermediate experience with Salesforce Flow, with an understanding of safe change practices (testing, documentation, change control). Strong attention to detail and a structured approach to ticket handling, prioritisation, and stakeholder updates. Experience working with task and delivery tools (e.g., Asana, Jira, or similar) and following a support or agile workflow.
