Sales Jobs M-Gas Jobs

The Retention Manager is responsible for executing the company’s customer retention and lifecycle management strategy at the field level by overseeing depot-based Retention Team Leads. The role ensures customers successfully onboard, activate, consistently use the product, and remain active throughout their lifecycle while minimizing churn, repossessions, and credit losses. Working closely with the Senior Retention Manager, the Retention Manager drives operational performance across onboarding, early usage, retention engagement, and repossession prevention while maintaining strong customer experience standards. The Retention Manager achieves results through structured field execution, performance management, data-driven interventions, and close collaboration with Sales, Customer Support, and Operations teams.

Job Details

• Drive Depot-Level Retention Execution: Oversee the customer retention lifecycle across assigned depots, ensuring consistent follow-up on critical stages including early support, payment adherence, usage monitoring, and churn risk intervention.
• Enable Onboarding & Early Usage: Ensure successful customer onboarding and activation by monitoring early indicators (first use, first payment, 30-day survival). Proactively support customers facing challenges and escalate systemic friction points.
• Lead Proactive Retention & Reactivation: Drive structured campaigns to re-engage customers showing declining activity or payment patterns. Monitor early warning signals (payment delays, usage drop-offs, complaints) to enable timely intervention and reduce churn.
• Prevent Repossession & Coordinate Recovery: Monitor the repossession pipeline, ensuring retention teams prioritize recovery efforts before escalation. Coordinate with repossession teams on structured account recovery and track drivers to improve customer quality.
• Manage Team Performance & Accountability: Own performance outcomes for retention teams, tracking KPIs including activation rates, retention milestones (30/60/90-day), churn, reactivation, and repossession volumes. Conduct weekly reviews and implement corrective action plans.
• Utilize Data & Reporting: Monitor retention dashboards and analyze customer cohorts to identify churn trends and performance gaps. Provide regular reports to the Senior Retention Manager and recommend operational improvements based on field insights.
• Collaborate Cross-Functionally: Work closely with Sales (feedback on prospect quality), Operations/Technical teams (escalate product issues), and Customer Support (resolve complex cases) to improve the end-to-end customer journey.
• Lead and Develop Retention Teams: Coach and develop 8–10 Retention Team Leads across depots, fostering a performance-driven, customer-centric culture. Identify capability gaps, implement training, and support hiring and onboarding.
