Customer Success Manager

About us For most enterprises, procurement remains one of the least automated functions. Spend commitments travel through disconnected, outdated systems, email threads, spreadsheets, and manual approval chains, leaving finance teams with limited visibility until long after commitments have been made. This results in difficult closes, weakened forecasting, and teams spending too much time reconciling what the business planned to spend with what was recorded in the books. Legacy platforms haven't solved this, and modern intake tools only scratch the surface. Pivot is ambitiously committed to solving this problem by filling the gap between legacy platforms and lightweight intake tools with an enterprise-grade AI operating system for Procurement, built from the system of record up. The adventure started mid-2023 with three founders, former C-levels from fintech unicorns (Qonto and Swile) and highly experienced engineers from top-notch tech companies. We’ve since raised $40M in a Series B round, totaling our funding to $70M, coming from tier-1 investors. We’ve built a team of 70, are operating across 25+ countries, and are trusted by enterprise leaders Lemonade, Wolt, and Flix.
