Overview

There’s a revolution currently taking place in the education and training field and you want to be a part of it. You feel strongly about access to education and you may have even taken a few MOOCs or online classes yourself. Come help us make education accessible to all. OpenClassrooms is a startup founded by Mathieu Nebra and Pierre Dubuc. We’ve been going through a hyper-growth phase since our last round of series B funding in the amount of $60M during the first half of 2018. Over 3M people per month train themselves on our platform. By 2025, we aim to place 1M students per year in the workforce.

At OpenClassrooms, the Student & Employer Success (SES) Team is here to guarantee ROI for our customers: students and employers alike. The SES Team ensures our students and employers get the best possible experience with us.

We’re expanding our proactive Employer Success Team to help us proactively manage our client relationships with our growing number of enterprise and B2B clients. We take Employer Success seriously at OpenClassrooms. Our Employer Success team is dedicated to going above and beyond for our B2B clients day in and day out. We are looking for an individual with exceptional customer service skills to deliver world-class service to all of our International clients and ensure they achieve their educational goals on our platform. You are a customer success guru, you love interacting with people and solving tricky problems. You’re independent and autonomous: you can make things happen without someone saying so. ‘Continuous Improvement’ is second nature to you as you obsess over details and persist to make things just ‘perfect’ for our students. If that’s you, then you might just be ready to join an agile and fast-moving structure, with the goal to make education accessible to all.

In this role, you will:

By 2025, we expect to place 1M students per year into the workforce. Customer Success is essential to our growth, it’s who we are. OpenClassrooms is a small, fast-growing, and globally distributed company, so you’ll likely get to work on many projects across the organization. That said, here are some things you’ll probably do:

  • Manage from end-to-end our client relationships, including employer onboarding, regular status updates on the program progress and any escalation process with customers.
  • Manage the relationship with all client contacts at the Employer level, including the HR sponsors and stakeholders, and serve as a strategic advisor to our B2B clients to ensure the success of our program service delivery

  • Organize, analyze, and escalate employer feedback to help our Product Team improve our educational platform
  • Experiment through iterations with a continuous improvement mindset in order to improve our internal processes and create efficiencies
  • When it comes to process creation, we go by what we call ‘the golden cycle’: Discover (do it yourself manually), standardize (make sure the process is manually replicable), actually processize (document in writing on our internal Wiki, Notion. so), and automate (with SaaS tools and technical developments)
