SAP office, North America

Role summary

We’re hiring a senior Field Readiness Lead to design and deliver high-impact learning programs for Customer Success Managers and Customer Renewal Executives. Reporting into a team where the overall CSM/CRE readiness strategy is owned centrally, this individual contributor will drive readiness against that strategy, translating field needs into scalable programs and partnering across CS, Services & Support, Delivery, Strategy & Ops, and Learning & Development teams to deliver measurable improvements in readiness (proficiency, adoption, time-to-ramp) that contribute to improved customer outcomes, expansion, and retention.

What you’ll do (core responsibilities)

  • Translate Global CSMO strategic initiatives into scalable Field Readiness Programs.
  • Design and deliver role-based onboarding and continuous learning (self-paced, live, microlearning, videos, guides, job-aids, etc.) that accelerate ramp and change behavior.
  • Create targeted assets and experiences (Newsletters, office hours, cohort learning, role-plays, scenarios labs, templates and checklists)
  • Leverage a learner-centric and creative mindset while aligning and delivering on business objectives.
  • Maintain and curate job aids, videos, and training material repositories so resources remain current and easily accessible.
  • Facilitate peer learning sessions, enablement rollouts for Global CSMO Initiatives, sequencing change and aligning stakeholders for successful adoption.
  • Apply program evaluation methods to measure learning effectiveness and ROI and recommend improvements based on evidence.

Who you are (qualifications)

  • 7+ years in customer success, learning and development, account management, or related roles.
  • Demonstrated experience designing and delivering training that drives measurable behavior change.
  • Experience with program evaluation and learning measurement (e.g. success metrics, pre/post assessments, impact analysis).
  • Strong customer lifecycle knowledge, including adoption and consumption, renewal and expansion processes with an operational efficiency mindset.
  • Proven ability to influence cross-functional stakeholders and drive adoption without direct authority.
  • Excellent facilitation, presentation, and written communication skills.
  • Strong project management skills; comfortable managing ambiguity and prioritizing across complex, transformation-oriented initiatives.
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience.

Key competencies (short list)

  • Results oriented and action focused
  • Ownership of strategy and roadmap (individual contributor)
  • Change management and stakeholder engagement
  • Coaching and facilitation
  • Analytical mindset and measurement-driven iteration
  • Ability to work through complexity and prioritize
  • Customer focus and negotiation

What success looks like (examples)

  • Reduced time-to-ramp for new CSMs/CREss by X weeks
  • Increased adoption outcomes attributable to enablement initiatives
  • Utilization of new assets
