About the Role

Boardable is seeking an Onboarding Specialist to guide new customers through a successful onboarding experience and help them feel confident using Boardable from the start.

• Document and communicate identified opportunities to the appropriate Account Manager for continued discovery, nurturing, and commercial follow-up

• Manage multiple customer onboarding engagements simultaneously while maintaining clear timelines, milestones, communication, and expectations

• Support more complex implementations that include Data Migration Services for customers transitioning historical records from another platform to Boardable

• Serve as the project manager for data migration engagements, coordinating requirements, timelines, customer communication, and handoffs between the customer and Boardable’s Product and Engineering teams

• Experience managing multiple customer onboarding or implementation projects simultaneously

• Strong presentation and facilitation skills with the ability to lead both one-to-one and one-to-many customer training

• A consultative approach to customer conversations with strong discovery, active listening, and needs identification skills

• Ability to understand customer goals and workflows and connect those needs to opportunities for greater adoption and value from Boardable

• Commercial awareness and the ability to recognize potential expansion opportunities and effectively transition them to Account Management
