The Company
At CancerIQ, our technology is expanding access to precision cancer prevention, early detection, and treatment for more patient populations. We build software and design services that make it easy for health systems to use genetic information to get ahead of cancer at scale. Our best-in-class, science-based platform is proven to double genetic counseling service capacity, quadruple genetic testing uptake, and significantly improve screening compliance. To date, CancerIQ has raised over $26 million to deliver on our mission, with our Series B funding round led by Merck Global Health Innovation Fund and Amgen Ventures.
Our team is made up of a committed, all-in group of people who are as driven to end cancer as we know it as the providers and patients we serve. This has led to a growing network of over 200 clinical locations across the country, with a robust ecosystem of partners in the diagnostic and genomics space behind us. But we're committed to scaling quickly - in this era of tremendous progress against cancer, we're looking for people who are just as tremendously committed to their work at CancerIQ. If you want your work to matter, join us.
The Position
As a Customer Success Manager (CSM) at CancerIQ, you will be responsible for managing and nurturing customer relationships throughout the customer lifecycle. Our customers include hospitals and health systems that rely on our cancer risk assessment software to improve patient outcomes. In this role, you will ensure that customers are maximizing the value of CancerIQ's products and services, driving customer satisfaction, retention, and growth.
Additionally, you will play a key role in the strategic planning and program leadership of customer success initiatives, ensuring that our processes, programs, and partnerships are aligned with customer needs and scalable across our growing customer base. You must be comfortable engaging with both clinical and business leaders within hospitals and health systems, understanding their unique perspectives and challenges in the context of cancer risk assessment and management.
The Role And Responsibilities
Customer Relationship Management
- Manage the overall buyer relationship, which tends to include, but is not limited to, the Oncology Service Line Leader, Director of the Breast Center, or Director of Cancer Services

- Be accountable for driving business value by coordinating with implementation managers, product specialists, and other members of the CancerIQ team assigned to the accounts

How Our CSMs Differ from Our Implementation Managers
The position of CSM at CancerIQ differs from the role of an Implementation Manager. While CSMs own and manage the relationship with our customers, Implementation Managers work in tandem with CSMs to manage both the implementation of new customers and continuous improvement projects for existing customers. Implementation Managers are responsible for creating and tracking project plans and charters, configuring applications, and leading implementation meetings.
