About Kandji
Kandji is building the future of Apple Enterprise Management. The use of Apple devices in the enterprise is growing rapidly. Drawing on decades of experience in Apple IT, we saw a dire need for a modern Apple device management platform that could accommodate growing businesses and increasing regulatory demands.
Kandji grew to hundreds of B2B customers within a few months of initial product launch in 2019, and secured a $100 million Series C in late 2021. Today, we have a 95% Customer Satisfaction rate and a rapidly growing community of customers, including names like Crunchbase, Belkin, Rackspace, Allbirds, FabFitFun, VSCO, and Turo.
Behind our business is a handful of the best investors in tech. Together, we are creating a new category of device management that can better serve modern businesses.
The Opportunity
As the Manager, Customer Success you’ll be responsible for the success of our customers. As a trusted advisor with deep product knowledge, and empathy, you’ll understand customers’ business objectives and align them with product capabilities. You will be the first Customer Succes Manager for Kandji in APAC, and you will eventually staff and then manage a team of Customer Success Managers who will conduct customer onboardings and business reviews, and renew our customers annual contracts. You’ll be responsible for making sure your team ensures retention, identifies new business opportunities, and drives high product usage, and value across their customer base.
We pride ourselves on creating world-class experiences for our customers. Our customers rely on Kandji to ensure their Apple devices are managed and secured properly.

The ideal candidate must be able to work in our Sydney office 3 days a week.
