A Quick Snapshot…

As an Onboarding Manager, you will own the customer's first experience with Conga, guiding new customers from purchase to first value with confidence, clarity, and technical credibility. This role blends consultative discovery, hands-on technical enablement, and relationship management to ensure customers are successfully configured, educated, and embedded in Conga's broader ecosystem of support.

Rather than delivering one-way demos, you will lead customers through a structured, outcome-driven onboarding journey, helping them configure their first use case, identify objectives, validate success, and establish a strong foundation for long-term adoption and ROI.

Why It's a Big Deal…

The onboarding experience sets the tone for the entire customer lifecycle. In this role, you will directly influence:

* Time to First Value

* Customer confidence and sentiment

* Early adoption and product usage

* Downstream support load and escalation risk

* Renewal health and long-term retention

You will serve as the front line of trust between Conga and its customers, ensuring customers feel supported, informed, and set up for success from day one, while creating clean, actionable handoffs to Product Specialists, Customer Success Managers, and Support teams.

Are You the Person We're Looking For?

Customer-first relationship manager.

You lead with empathy, curiosity, and accountability. You know how to build trust quickly, ask thoughtful discovery questions, and guide customers with confidence, especially during moments of uncertainty or change.

Technically credible and hands-on.

You are comfortable rolling up your sleeves to help customers install, configure, and validate their first workflows. You don't just explain what to do, you help customers understand why it matters.

Structured but flexible.

You thrive in repeatable playbooks, but can adapt your approach based on customer maturity, goals, and technical complexity.

Clear, proactive communicator.

You set expectations, document outcomes, and ensure nothing falls through the cracks, internally or externally.

Ownership mindset.

You don't wait for problems to escalate. You anticipate risk, coordinate resources, and take responsibility for seeing onboarding through to a confident completion.
