About the work

How would you build a success plan for an enterprise treasury team that just bought Ripple Treasury?

How well do you understand the daily work of a corporate treasury team? Walk me through what cash management and liquidity planning look like for them.

What they are checking: Whether they can speak a treasurer's language, which decides whether the customer sees them as a peer or a vendor.

How do you run a quarterly business review that a CFO actually wants to attend?

THE WORK: As a Ripple Treasury Customer Success Manager, you are a critical part of our customers’ adoption and ongoing satisfaction with Ripple’s treasury solutions. You will play a pivotal role in ensuring our enterprise treasury and finance customers achieve their desired outcomes (value realization) — from streamlining cash management and FX operations to optimizing liquidity and payment workflows. When customers are successful, Ripple benefits through increased retention, solution expansion, and advocacy. As part of the Global Customer Success Team, you will help solve enterprise treasury teams’ most complex business challenges through strategic success planning and proactive engagement.

WHAT YOU'LL BRING:  • 7+ years of customer success, account management, or enterprise software sales experience, ideally within treasury management, financial technology (fintech), banking, or enterprise SaaS. • Deep understanding of corporate treasury operations, including cash management, FX, liquidity management, and payment workflows; direct experience in treasury or finance roles is a strong plus. • Ability to interact with enterprise customer teams at various levels — from treasury analysts and finance managers through CFOs and C-suite stakeholders — while navigating complex organizational dynamics and sensitive conversations. • Strong executive presentation and communication skills, verbal and written. • Proven project management skills with a track record of acting as a trusted advisor to drive measurable business value in enterprise financial environments. • Highly data-driven with a disciplined approach to tracking engagement, health metrics, and customer outcomes across your portfolio. • Intellectually curious with a passion for creative problem solving in complex financial contexts. • Experience with digital assets, blockchain-based payments, or emerging fintech infrastructure is a plus but not required. • Flexible approach, able to operate effectively with ambiguity and change in a fast-moving environment. • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Business, or a related field; MBA or equivalent experience a plus. • Flexibility for occasional travel to customer sites and industry events.
