About Ismael

Enterprise Customer Success Manager specialized in B2B SaaS revenue retention, renewals, and expansion.

I support scale-ups and tech companies in managing and developing strategic enterprise accounts, with direct responsibility for post-sale revenue (NRR, GRR, expansion).

With over 5 years of experience in Customer Success and Account Management, I cover the entire customer lifecycle: executive governance, securing renewals, expansion strategies, and driving delivered value. I have managed multi-million dollar portfolios with international key accounts in complex B2B SaaS environments (e-commerce, data, digital marketing).

My approach is business and results-oriented, based on usage analysis, prioritization of high-stakes accounts, and close collaboration with Product, Technical, Finance, and Legal teams. Objective: secure existing revenue and generate sustainable growth in strategic accounts.
