At Braze, we have found our people. We’re a genuinely approachable, exceptionally kind, and intensely passionate crew.

We seek to ignite that passion by setting high standards, championing teamwork, and creating work-life harmony as we collectively navigate rapid growth on a global scale while striving for greater equity and opportunity – inside and outside our organization.

To flourish here, you must be prepared to set a high bar for yourself and those around you. There is always a way to contribute: Acting with autonomy, having accountability and being open to new perspectives are essential to our continued success.

Our deep curiosity to learn and our eagerness to share diverse passions with others gives us balance and injects a one-of-a-kind vibrancy into our culture.

If you are driven to solve exhilarating challenges and have a bias toward action in the face of change, you will be empowered to make a real impact here, with a sharp and passionate team at your back. If Braze sounds like a place where you can thrive, we can’t wait to meet you.

Braze is looking to hire a Manager on our Services Consulting team. Braze’s Service Offering Managers act as trusted advisors to our prospective clients and Sales team during the sales process, adapting their extensive expertise on the Braze services to meet customer needs. Our Service Offering Managers support the Braze sales organization during pre-sales in scoping client service requirements, presenting our service offerings, building comfort and confidence in the value of Braze services, and positioning optimal service pricing and packaging to potential customers.

This role is an opportunity to expand on your people management and leadership skills, while partnering with Braze’s sales, Solutions Consulting, and post-sales services teams. The role will draw upon your people-management skills and experience in service delivery, Technical Account Management, Customer Success, or related fields, along with a high level of curiosity and proven track record of execution. You will serve as a mentor, advocate, and leader for the Services Consultants on your team.

The role requires some travel —at most 30% at peak times —and is based in one of our sales offices—New York City, London, San Francisco, Chicago, Austin, Singapore, or Sydney.
