About
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am a seasoned Client Success Manager with over two decades of experience. My expertise lay in nurturing client relationships, empowering teams, and navigating traditional and cutting edge technologies. My leadership style is a combination of tough-love accountability coupled with a commitment to team growth.
I have had the opportunity of managing over 70 SaaS client accounts at Veriforce. At Avetta I was blessed with managing multiple teams who had an international client base. From this diverse tenured, I have a career base-line focused on strong communication, process improvement, and turning chaos into calm.
I am fluent in CRM tools like Salesforce and Zendesk. Currently, I have personal projects experimenting deploying AI open-source models, creating AI swarm agent clusters, bettering my prompting skills, and investigating how securely a company can host these locally. This hands-on tech practice fuels my curiosity and brings modern solutions to traditional service roles.
I am excited to bring this blend of heart, and technical knowledge skill and ability to a role where people matter, technology supports, and service is crucial.
Looking forward to the opportunity to connect further.
Warmly,
Derrick-John Piper
