Renewals Manager
Common Room
About us
Common Room is the customer intelligence platform that captures every buying signal, giving companies superpowers with AI enrichment and automation to reach the right person with the right context at the right time.
Despite an explosion of buyer signals, companies are left struggling with siloed point solution vendors, bloated tech stacks, and unactionable "intent" data. Common Room brings together all the buying signals you care about in one place so you can track the entire customer journey, match signals to real people and accounts, take action and automate.
We’ve raised over $50 million from top-tier investors including Greylock, Index, and Madrona to build the world's first customer intelligence platform for modern B2B companies. And we’re backed by 25+ operators from the fastest-growing companies in the world such as Figma, Stripe, Airtable, Slack, Notion, Loom, and more.
You + Common Room? You’d be joining a team that revels in asking hard questions, collaborating gladly, and making decisions quickly—a team that values simplicity, passion, trust, each other, and our customers above all.
So hello! Please, knock on our door. We'd love to meet you.
Why we need you:
We're looking for a strategic and proactive founding Renewals Manager with a builder mindset—someone excited to own and scale programs that drive retention and growth across the entire customer lifecycle.
This role is critical to how we deliver value, protect revenue, and unlock expansion opportunities at scale. You'll not only own renewal execution but also build the systems, programs, and processes that make retention a repeatable, measurable motion.
Few roles provide such a direct impact on the growth of the company. If this sounds like something you’re excited about, we’d love to hear from you!
How you’ll contribute:
Own and execute the end-to-end renewal strategy for a defined customer segment.
Proactively manage renewal cycles from discovery to negotiation, aligning stakeholders and commercial strategy around clear business outcomes.
Forecast renewals, expansions, and risks with accuracy using Salesforce and internal tooling.
Serve as a trusted commercial advisor internally and externally, helping teams and customers navigate renewal and expansion decisions with confidence.
Design and operationalize scalable onboarding and adoption programs that directly support renewals and expansion, tailored to real customer use cases.
Build programmatic enablement that balances self-serve education with high-touch implementation for strategic accounts.
Create and maintain content (courses, guides, webinars) that deepens product proficiency and prepares accounts for long-term success and growth.
Partner with Marketing and Product to launch campaigns that drive adoption, reinforce value, and influence renewal outcomes.
Lead live learning sessions—including office hours and training webinars—to accelerate time to value and strengthen product engagement.
Evaluate and measure the impact of lifecycle programs on adoption, retention, and upsell metrics.
Collaborate cross-functionally to improve tooling, reporting, and internal workflows that scale renewals management across the business.
You will enjoy being a member of our team if you have:
2+ years of experience in renewals, account management, or customer success roles in B2B SaaS
Strong commercial acumen and ability to navigate complex procurement cycles with executive stakeholders
A proven track record of hitting GRR and NRR goals while managing a high volume of renewals
Familiarity with Salesforce, sales workflows, and renewal forecasting best practices
Excellent organization, communication, and stakeholder management skills
The ability to thrive in a dynamic environment and contribute to building new systems and processes from the ground up
Passion for customer outcomes and cross-functional collaboration
In your first week, expect to:
Learn Common Room’s customer personas, use cases, and current renewal playbooks
Get hands-on in the product and meet your cross-functional collaborators
Join renewal conversations and listen in on expansion strategy calls
In your first month, expect to:
Own a renewal forecast for a portion of our customer base
Identify early risks and lead plays in partnership with CSMs and Sales
Build renewal-specific collateral and tooling improvements
In your first three months, expect to:
Be fully ramped and independently managing renewals across your book
Lead cross-functional post-mortems and strategy syncs for key renewal outcomes
Drive process improvements that help us scale retention efforts more efficiently
