At Paycom, we don’t throw around words like “opportunity” lightly. We mean it, and we build it into everything we do. You can feel it most in Client Setup and Service, where our Client Success Managers (CSMs, aka “Paycom Specialists”) help new clients get comfortable, confident and excited about Paycom’s single software that’ll transform their business.
For some, this role is a fresh start, a way to pivot careers and hit the ground running. For others, it’s the next step on a path they’re already passionate about. But either way, it’s not just a job. It’s a launchpad. The kind of role that makes you truly passionate about the work you do.
Let’s break down what life as a CSM is really like, and why so many of our team members call it a career-defining move.
Simplifying work, one client at a time
From the jump, CSMs dive deep into the world of HR tech. Sounds intense, but don’t sweat it. You’re not expected to be an expert on Day 1. That’s what our engaging, on-site and expert-led training is for. And it’s not your typical crash course, either. It’s immersive, practical and made to stick.
You’ll learn how our software actually solves problems and drives strategy. You’ll become someone clients trust not only to troubleshoot, but to think ahead and effectively inform their operations.
Working across a wide range of organizations, you’ll start to see patterns, understand industry pain points and truly learn about the clients we serve. In doing so, you’ll empower them to maximize their potential ROI with Paycom and exceed their goals.
Learning never really stops. That’s part of what makes this role so engaging. Every day will bring a new opportunity to help businesses, and their employees use our software to the fullest. You’ll even help them address some of their most complex HR and payroll challenges, simplifying what they do as you gain valuable, life-long experience.
Where strategy meets service
Being a CSM is part tech translator, part relationship builder and part trusted advisor. You’re not following a script. You’re having real conversations, answering questions and helping clients get to where they want to be through dedicated service.
Each client comes with their own goals and needs. Your job is to listen, learn and then build a roadmap that connects the dots between our technology and their success. That might mean helping them engage their employees, understand a workforce trend or solve a challenging issue.
You’ll develop deep relationships with the clients you serve, foster trust and help them truly win. And when they win, so do we.
If you enjoy rolling up your sleeves, digging into the details and being the steady hand clients rely on, this role will feel like second nature.
Training built for your growth
We understand you need the right foundation to work effectively. That’s why our training program is designed to meet you where you are and get you where you need to be.
You won’t just sit through slideshows and hard-to-follow presentations. You’ll walk through real-life scenarios, get hands-on with the software and learn from people who are committed to your long-term success.
And training doesn’t stop after onboarding. We offer mentoring and ongoing development, so you’re always growing in your current role and your career overall.
Because when you feel confident, your clients do, too.
Competitive compensation
Being a CSM takes skill, care and dedication. That’s why we work to ensure the role is compensated appropriately, including a starting base salary of $85,000.
But beyond the pay, our benefits support holistic health. You’ll enjoy:
- paid time off
- family leave and family-forming benefits
- a 401(k) plan with a company match
- a company stock purchase program
- identity protection
- pet insurance
- mental health, financial wellness and caregiver resources
After all, when we support our employees, it supports our clients, too.
Your clients’ success is your success
Helping people is central to a CSM’s role. The work can be fast-paced. But if you’re someone who thrives on variety, collaboration and solving complex problems, this role is ideal.
And your impact doesn’t end when you help a client overcome a specific challenge. CSMs directly influence retention, satisfaction and company growth. In other words, what you do has a long-lasting impact on the organizations you serve.
