#63 George Blackburn - Relocating to NZ and life as a Customer Success Manager

In this episode I'm joined by old friend George Blackburn. George and I both started our careers on the same day back in Jan 2016 in recruitment at BMS and have stayed in touch ever since.

George has since gone to build a great career for himself in the tech industry and now works as a Customer Success Manager for a company called ecoPortal over in New Zealand.

In this epsisode expect to learn :

• What a typical day in the life of a Customer Success Manager looks like
• What key skills George has to demonstrate to have success in his role
• How he defines what Customer Success actually is
• How he finds life out in NZ
• Reflections from his previous life in recruitment and some lessons learnt
• How he feels he has developed professionally since we first met 8 years ago
• and much more!

Great to catch up with an old mate and so good to see him doing so well in his career and life over in NZ. For me customer success isn't an area I knew much about so was really good learn some more about that particular field. If you want check out George see his LinkedIN profile below :
