Role Description The Retention Manager is the last line of defense when an AutoVitals client is at risk of cancelling. The ideal candidate brings deep experience in B2B SaaS retention, account management, or sales, with a proven ability to diagnose what's really driving a cancel signal, build a plan to address it, and pull in whatever cross-functional resources are needed to save the relationship. This role operates with significant authority over pricing concessions, contract restructuring, and engineering and product escalations. This is not a renewal management role. AutoVitals contracts auto-renew, and routine renewal motions are not part of this role's responsibility. The Retention Manager engages only when a client is actively at risk of leaving — whether through an explicit cancellation request, a competitive migration signal, a failed onboarding, or another structural cancellation risk. This is also not a sales role. The Retention Manager carries no upsell quota and is positioned to clients as a non-selling resource: "I'm not asking you for a penny. I'm here to solve this. The buck stops here." Expansion opportunities surfaced during a save cycle are handed to the Account Management team. This position will report directly to the Director of Sales and will work remotely. We're looking for someone to join our team immediately.
