Customer Success Manager - Higher Education

Mentimeter is an engagement tool with a clear goal in mind. To turn presentations into conversations. Through real-time interactivity and clear visualizations, we get people to participate, engage and become more productive. Transforming all those passive meetings, airless classrooms and drawn out trainings into valuable and memorable moments.

We truly believe that you achieve the best results by doing things together. And that successful leaders need to adopt a curious and collaborative mindset in order to get there. So with you at Mentimeter, you’ll be a big part of the ambition to help over 1 billion people listen, learn and work better together.

About the role

As a Customer Success Manager in our Higher Education team, you’ll own the success of a portfolio of Enterprise customers across EMEA – helping universities turn Mentimeter adoption into measurable value.

This is a commercial Customer Success role. You won’t own the negotiation or sign the renewal, but you’ll play a critical role in whether customers want to stay and grow. Your job is to understand what success looks like for each customer, drive adoption across their organisation and build the evidence that shows the value Mentimeter is creating.

You’ll work closely with an Account Manager who owns the commercial relationship. You’ll find where the value is, prove it through usage and outcomes, and identify opportunities to expand. They own the negotiation; you help make the case worth saying yes to.

Higher Education has its own rhythm. You’ll work with lecturers, administrators and faculty leaders across departments and campuses, navigating academic years, different stakeholder groups and different levels of adoption.

We’re looking for someone proactive, commercially minded and genuinely curious about their customers – someone who gets energy from seeing what could be better and making it happen.

What Will Help You Succeed

We think you’ll thrive here if you

Have experience owning B2B customer relationships in a commercial environment, ideally with Enterprise customers

Understand that great Customer Success is about outcomes, not activity – and can point to measurable results you’ve helped customers achieve

Are comfortable using data to understand customer health, prioritise where to spend your time and decide what to do next

Know how to build trust and influence across different stakeholders, even when you don’t have formal authority

Are comfortable facilitating, presenting or training and can hold a room

Are proactive and structured – customers know what’s happening next because you make sure things keep moving

Are curious and quick to learn, and actively look for ways to improve how you work

Experience in Higher Education is a plus, but not required.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who is hungry and humble: ambitious about the impact you want to have and how you want to grow, while being collaborative, curious and generous with the people around you.

AI and Hiring at Mentimeter

At Mentimeter, we believe AI helps us work smarter - but it never replaces the human assessment, curiosity, and personal connection that define our culture and our hiring. We use AI as a sparring partner: to bounce ideas, bring new perspectives, support structure, and make our work more efficient. But the meaning, decisions, and interactions always come from people.

AI does not screen or decide on candidates.

There is no automated filtering, ranking, or decision-making in our recruitment process. Every application is reviewed by a person.

Hiring teams may use AI to support their work - for example, to structure notes, prepare interview questions, or organize their thinking.

AI strengthens our work, but it does not define it. At Mentimeter, we’re not building an AI-driven hiring process - we’re building a people-first culture, where technology helps us listen, learn, and grow together.
