The role at a glance
Role title: Customer Onboarding Rep
Role level: E1–E2 (Associate–Intermediate)
Reports to: Chief Product Officer
Start date: ASAP
Location: Christchurch (office-first, hybrid)
Hours: Full-time permanent, hours flexible to match customer needs
Package: Salary + Commission and Benefits - dependent on experience and we’re happy to discuss what that would look like for you specifically during our interview process.
Why this role exists
Komodo works with schools globally. Schools choose us because wellbeing matters. They stay with us because they successfully embed the platform.
This role ensures that happens early.
You exist to deeply implement Komodo within a school’s first year, building confident users, strong internal champions, and a clear pathway to renewal and expansion.
By owning the technical and strategic "machinery" of onboarding, you allow our School Success Leads (SSLs) to focus on high-level relationship depth and account growth. You are the bridge between a signed contract and a successful, independent customer.
What you'll own
You are the owner of early customer confidence and adoption, acting as a dedicated implementation partner.
Implementation Mastery: You will guide new Komodo customers throughout their first 12 months using Komodo, ensuring they are super comfortable in the product and positioned for long-term success.
Champion Building: You’ll identify and train internal champions within schools to ensure the product remains vital even if staff changes occur.
Confident Training: You will lead staff training sessions, ensuring teachers and leaders feel capable and excited about using Komodo in their daily routines.
Proactive Troubleshooting: You won't wait for a problem to escalate; you’ll jump on calls with schools to troubleshoot challenges alongside them in real-time.
Renewal Readiness: You will track and execute onboarding milestones, ensuring every school meets the health metrics required for a seamless first-year renewal alongside our School Success Leads.
Operational Excellence: You’ll man the help desk and work on support tickets alongside the team, identifying recurring themes to proactively reduce future support needs.
Cross-functional Collaboration: You’ll work closely with the Customer Experience and Product teams to provide feedback on how we can automate and improve the onboarding journey, and level-up our product.
What success looks like in the role
In the first 90 days:
You are confident in the product and how schools use it
You understand onboarding milestones and can execute them independently
You are supporting onboarding and implementation across multiple schools
You are identifying common friction points and feeding them back to the team
You are contributing to support and learning patterns across customers
At 6–12 months:
Your customers are confidently using the product and seeing value
Strong internal champions established within schools
Reduction in repeat or avoidable support tickets
High first-year renewal rates for new schools, with “champion-flight” churn reduced
Evidence of expansion readiness within accounts
School Success Leads able to focus on relationship depth and account growth
What you'll bring
Must haves
Technical Passion: You are incredibly passionate about introducing people to new technology and have a track record of deeply implementing new tools.
AI Integration: You use AI as a core part of your everyday workflow to automate the routine and free up your time for higher-level strategic work.
Curious Mindset: You possess an investigative mindset and insatiable curiosity; you want to know the product better than anyone else internally.
Relationship Building: You can build genuine rapport and trust with school leaders and champions quickly. You first instinct is to connect over a call to truly understand the customer.
Strategic Thinking: You have a deeply analytical mindset. You don't just follow a checklist; you map key execution points and think strategically about how to move a customer from "onboarded" to "expert".
Strong Communication: You have exceptional written and verbal communication skills. You are confident speaking in front of an audience and can deliver highly engaging presentations.
Nice to haves
Experience working with schools or in education
EdTech / SaaS / startup experience
Experience using CRM tools (e.g. HubSpot)
Familiarity with customer health metrics or usage data
Expected challenges
We believe in radical transparency to ensure you have a realistic job preview. Here are the key challenges you should expect:
You’ll need to balance onboarding delivery with support responsibilities
You’ll be working across multiple schools with different levels of engagement
You’ll need to build structure in a function that is still evolving
You’ll need to proactively drive engagement rather than wait for it
You’ll need to adapt your hours week to week to cater for multiple timezones.
If you prefer purely reactive support roles, this will feel uncomfortable.
If you enjoy building capability and seeing customers succeed early, this will energise you.
How we work
We are an office-first, high-trust team based in Christchurch with a strong culture of in-person collaboration.
Responsible autonomy: You are trusted to manage your portfolio without micromanagement. Outcomes matter.
Learning and candour: We value direct, respectful feedback. You will be expected to reflect, improve, and raise concerns early.
Impact first: We care deeply about wellbeing in schools and we also run a disciplined SaaS business. Both matter.
