The hiring challenge
Turn customer pressure into a clear hiring mandate
A growing account base can expose a leadership gap before it appears in a single renewal number. Managers need clear escalation authority, product and support need a consistent partner, and executive customers expect someone to own the hard conversations. Scion helps you turn those pressures into a hiring mandate for a permanent customer success director. We map the customer segments, management layers, and decisions that should move off the VP’s desk, then seek leaders with relevant experience.
We clarify whether the director manages CSMs directly or leads managers, how onboarding and renewals are divided, and what control the role has over coverage models and headcount. Tell us about portfolio size, technical complexity, executive account involvement, health reporting, and partnership with sales, support, implementation, and product. We define the first-year outcomes you will evaluate without treating every customer success organization as the same operating model.
Where Scion fits
You get a director search focused on management depth, portfolio decisions, and executive customer work. We screen candidates against your customer journey and provide context on the scale and complexity they have led.
Scion Staffing has connected employers and professionals since 2006. Our US-based recruiters support temporary staffing, direct hire recruiting, and specialized searches across corporate and professional functions. We bring a nationwide candidate network, a consultative intake, and a clear interview process to each assignment. The hiring manager always decides whom to meet and hire; our job is to make that decision easier with relevant candidates and responsive coordination.
Targeted candidate assessment
Test how candidates lead success teams
Scion looks for evidence of leading customer-facing teams through growth, portfolio changes, escalations, and difficult account decisions. Candidate conversations explore how leaders use customer signals, develop CSMs, allocate capacity, and make tradeoffs with commercial partners. You receive a targeted slate with context on each person’s scope. Our recruiters coordinate interviews and feedback so the search remains responsive while your leadership team makes the decision.
What we screen for
- Managing CSM leaders and capacity
- Customer health and escalation governance
- Renewal readiness and account planning
- Cross-functional operating cadence
- Executive customer relationships
We agree on the essential criteria with you, then look for evidence in comparable settings.
