Summary/Objective The Client Success Manager (CSM) serves as a critical client-facing operator within Armada Employer Group, responsible for driving client satisfaction, retention, and long-term account success across the full lifecycle of the client relationship—from onboarding through ongoing service execution. This role functions as the primary point of contact and trusted advisor for assigned clients, ensuring seamless implementation, accurate system configuration, proactive communication, and timely issue resolution. The CSM plays a key role in reinforcing Armada Employer Group’s value proposition by guiding clients through AEO services, ensuring operational excellence, and identifying opportunities to strengthen and expand client relationships. Armada Employer Group is a high-growth division within the Armada Family of Companies, built to modernize how businesses manage workforce risk, workers’ compensation, and employer responsibilities. Through our Alternative Employer Organization (AEO) model, we provide a direct alternative to the traditional Ohio BWC system—delivering cost savings, removing administrative burden, and shifting workers’ compensation liability off our clients’ balance sheets. By combining payroll coordination, compliance infrastructure, claims management, and risk strategy into a single platform, Armada Employer Group enables employers to operate more efficiently, scale their workforce with confidence, and reduce overall exposure.
