Your time will be split between client meetings, planning work with your team, and supporting the delivery of projects so your clients are delighted!. We also have a number of internal programmes for learning, socialising and generally contributing to the company culture.

Meet our Client Success Managers

Too often there’s a gap between expectations set in job ads, and the reality experienced by our team. So, here’s some quotes from some of our current amazing team of CSMs (Dean, Nevena and Stefani) based throughout Europe and Africa:

Contribution to the company’s strategy

• “You’ll have an active role in shaping the company’s commercial strategy and being able to help our clients achieve their goals.”
• “Everyone is encouraged to make their voices heard. If you believe in mutual respect between employees and the workplace, trusting others and appreciating differences and want to work somewhere that you can help clients grow their businesses by envisioning and achieving their goals, then I’d say this is the place to be!”

Culture

• “Working at Angry Creative is the most fun I’ve had with my clothes on. You have the autonomy to get work done, whilst feeling it’s a safe space to make mistakes, learn, grow and develop.”
• “The company vibe is a friendly, fun and collaborative working environment.”
• “Happiness’ is an unofficial metric here; both internally and externally with clients and partners alike (as making websites together can be quite an in-depth long-term commitment to one another)”
• “There is great team energy and you’re able to manage projects from A-Z owning the whole process which gives you the ability to really impact our client’s business and make changes for them for the better.”
• “We have regular check-ins that are well organised which gives access to the team when ever you or they might need help. The HR & People team make a huge effort to keep us social and engaged.”
• “It’s a diverse job and every day I have fun. When you have a problem it is shared and solved as a team and you always feel appreciated.”
• “Remote working is like Marmite, you either love it or hate it (there’s just no getting away from it). Life is super busy here and even though you’re remote, loneliness is not a thing here.”
• “The flexibility and remote-first culture is great, and shows that the company is forward thinking.”

Our work

• “I love working with our WordPress and WooCommerce experts within the e-commerce industry! Absolutely adore the team spirit where different cultures and expertise is encouraged. There is a collective passion to making Angry Creative the leading WordPress and WooCommerce experts one website and plugin at a time.”
• “Working with Developers, watching them grow, develop and encourage this process in a fun energetic manner that fosters collaboration with clients.”
• “No day is the same, it’s the most dynamic CSM role I’ve ever had. You have the freedom to make decisions in the best interest of your clients whilst being supported and understood by your colleagues!”
• “Your time is split across different areas of the business (sales, PM, admin and new business) and you are never finished and that’s OK!”
