• Build predictive churn models and retention frameworks informed by implementation health, adoption signals, and services consumption analytics - and leverage these insights to proactively influence the company-wide retention strategy.
• Establish services attach benchmarks, consumption thresholds, and outcome-based delivery standards that create replicable retention outcomes across segments and geographies.
• Translate services performance data into actionable insights for the ELT, influencing product roadmap decisions, CS motion design, and growth strategy.
• Serve as a strategic partner and peer to Sales, Customer Success, Support, and Product leaders - not merely a cross-functional collaborator, but a co-owner of the post-sale revenue motion.
• Drive services-to-sales alignment by designing pre-sales PS engagement models, enhancing solution design capabilities, and developing commercial packaging that accelerates deal velocity and improves deal quality.
• Champion services innovation, including partner-led models, standardized  service offerings, and AI-enabled execution - to scale PS capacity without proportional headcount growth.
