Company & Mission Overview:

Our mission: We exist to connect climate and financial risk.

For over a decade, we’ve been translating climate risk into decision-useful financial outcomes for investors, businesses, communities, and property owners worldwide.

Our data: We’ve assembled leading climate scientists and economists to develop transparent, peer-reviewed methodologies to calculate the past, present, and future climate risk for properties and asset classes spanning real estate, infrastructure, and companies. Using physics-based deterministic models, we predict the likelihood of floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and other hazards at any location on Earth, along with associated damage and downtime.

Our customers: We aim to incorporate climate risk data into every financial decision made today. We are relied on every day by:

  • Institutional investors like Norges Bank Investment Management and Blackstone.

  • Banking enterprises, including Bank of America and Fifth Third.

  • Government bodies ranging from Fannie Mae to the US State of Connecticut.

  • Millions of everyday users on Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, Homes.com, and more.

This position requires a combination of strong client management instincts, the ability to translate climate risk data into business outcomes that resonate with clients, and the operational rigor to manage a portfolio of strategic accounts at scale. You will be the trusted advisor and primary day-to-day point of contact for assigned accounts, driving adoption, surfacing expansion opportunities, partnering with Account Executives on renewal motions, and channeling client feedback into our product, science, and data teams.

You will report directly to the Director of Enterprise Solutions and work closely with other members of the Client Success and Solutions Engineering teams, account executives, and our product, climate science, and data teams to ensure that client needs are met, risks are identified early, and growth opportunities are identified and converted.

  • Drive product adoption of First Street’s Enterprise Suite by understanding each customer’s specific use cases and proactively guiding them to the modules, workflows, and outputs that deliver the most value

  • Lead Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) that surface readmap-relevant feedback, identify expansion opportunities, quantify value delivered, and reinforce First Street’s position as a strategic partner

  • Monitor account health using usage analytics, qualitative signals, and customer feedback; build mitigation plans where churn risk is identified and escalate appropriately

  • Partner with account executives on renewal strategy and execution, owning the value narrative, supporting commercial conversations, and ensuring renewal readiness in advance

  • Identify expansion and upsell opportunities across new features, additional user groups, and adjacent business units; collaborate with AEs to convert them

  • Coordinate with solutions engineers, product managers, software engineers, and other relevant SMEs as necessary to resolve technical questions on data delivery, API integrations, methodology, and platform functionality

  • Collect, prioritize, and channel client feedback into our Product, Climate Science, Economics, and Data teams to influence the roadmap

  • Maintain accurate customer records, account plans, and Forecasts in HubSpot, ensuring visibility into account health, renewal risk, and pipeline

  • Develop and refine scalable customer success assets including playbooks, training materials, knowledge hub content, and QBR templates with a focus on reducing time-to-value and enabling customers to self-serve where appropriate

  • Travel as required to meet with customers and represent First Street at industry events

What you’ll need:

  • 5+ years of experience in customer success, account management, or technical client services at a B2B SaaS, data, or analytics company, ideally selling into investment organizations, banks, financial services, real estate, or corporate risk functions

  • Demonstrated track record of managing a portfolio of enterprise accounts, including ownership of adoption, retention, and expansion outcomes

  • Strong understanding of how investors, financial institutions, and corporations make decisions, and an ability to connect data products to investment, underwriting, risk management, disclosure, and other relevant workflows

  • The ability to understand and communicate complex climate science concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders

  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to build relationships and influence decision-makers at all levels

  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities across multiple accounts simultaneously

  • Curiosity and willingness to learn about climate change and First Street’s product offerings

  • Education minimum requirement: Bachelor’s degree in a relevant discipline

What will make you stand out:
