Our Culture

DeepCrawl is committed to developing a strong, functional culture. Our core values are not just words, they are the DNA of our company and we are happy to talk with you about how we live them at DeepCrawl.

• We are one team

Overview of the role

At Deepcrawl, the purpose of customer success is noble and simple; "Deliver value to customers that drives growth for Deepcrawl." We fulfill our purpose by focusing on three interrelated capabilities:

• deliver measurable value to the people that use our products and services;
• convert that value into growth for Deepcrawl; and
• create relationships with customers that educate, improve and empower.

That requires a blend of consulting and commercial skills. All this takes place in the context of Technical SEO, a capability that has a massive impact on the revenue, performance and reputation of the companies we serve: global brands like Canva, ebay, Procter and Gamble, CNN, Ikea, and more. As a CSM, you will be in the front line of fulfilling our purpose, working with a portfolio of customers for our technical SEO products around our three core capabilities.

• Deliver measurable value to the people we serve.  We don’t serve customers, we serve individuals. You will work with users, team leaders and executives to understand and help them achieve their specific goals for their website.  In doing this, you will leverage one of the most sophisticated value delivery processes, which begins with sales and continues throughout a joined-up customer lifecycle.
• Convert value for customers to revenue for Deepcrawl. Customer success sells. Put simply, we sell because it is the right thing for customers. You will harness your commercial skills with a focus on delivering repeatable, measurable value to nurture buyers through renewal and upsell opportunities. You will use this intense focus on value to generate advocates, helping us grow our reputation and market presence.
• Build relationships that customers value.  The relationships we build with the individuals we serve are founded on informing, improving and helping.  You will build relationships across the companies we serve, recognizing the importance of breadth as well as depth with each relationship focused on value as they perceive it.

Here’s what we think you need to take on this challenge:

• Communicating with customers is a strength. You are succinct and persuasive and generate trust with those you deal with.
• You bring consultative skills to translate the needs of the customers you serve and coach them in how to best use our product and services to achieve their goals.
• By communicating the measurable value delivered, you help the people you serve understand the positive impact we have on their jobs and businesses.
• You are comfortable with managing renewal and upsell sales, calling on your account management skills as you negotiate and drive these processes.
• Using your data and organizational skills, you prioritize your work to ensure you do what is important without burning both ends of the candle.
• You are accountable and self-motivated.
• You live our values in a way that helps us to build a high performing team and company.

We don’t expect you to tick all the boxes but if you think you fit the bill and want to work with a team that aspires to be world leaders, then give us a call. If you have a working knowledge of SEO, that would be a plus.

Why work for DeepCrawl?
