About the role
- Own the post-sale activation pipeline for TowPay cross-sell opportunities across the customer base
- Directly drive activation with assigned accounts while equipping and enabling other Customer Ops team members to do the same at scale
- Develop repeatable playbooks, messaging, and objection-handling frameworks to accelerate time-to-live
- Track and report on activation rates, identify bottlenecks, and drive continuous improvement
- Once customers are live, drive adoption of TowPay across transaction types, locations, and workflows
- Partner with other customer facing teams to embed payments into customer habits and workflows
- Identify underutilizing accounts and develop targeted engagement strategies to increase volume and depth of use
- Serve as the subject matter expert on TowPay best practices for the broader Customer Ops team
- Act as the primary liaison between Autura's finance team and customers on chargeback disputes, fraud flags, and risk escalations
- Help customers understand their risk exposure and adopt practices that reduce chargebacks and protect their payment standing
- Work cross-functionally to ensure Autura's risk policies are communicated clearly and applied consistently
- Partner with sales teams across Autura's product lines to ensure TowPay booking estimates are grounded in realistic activation assumptions

- Provide deal-level input on payment-related questions and customer readiness

Requirements
- 6–10 years of experience in payments, payment operations, or a closely related field

- Strong cross-functional collaborator — comfortable working across Customer Success, Finance, Sales, and Product
- Data-driven and organized, with the ability to manage a pipeline of accounts and activation activities simultaneously
