Customer Success Manager
THE ROLE
We are looking for a Customer Success Manager to lead our existing customer and retentions function, responsible for driving utilisation, repeat business, and long-term customer value across Lumi’s portfolio.
This role leads a growing team of sales and support specialists and has full accountability for team performance, capability uplift, and conversion outcomes across our existing customer base.
Lumi operates with a strong broker-led distribution model, and this role plays a key part in ensuring our customer success approach works in partnership with our broker network. The team must engage customers in a way that supports brokers, protects relationships, and helps generate repeat opportunities through the channel.
You will work closely with Sales, Broker Distribution, Marketing, Strategy, Data, Credit and Product to ensure the team is targeting the right customers, having the right conversations, and consistently converting opportunities into funded deals.
This is a key leadership role within the Sales & Distribution function, with strong visibility across the business and the opportunity to grow into a broader leadership position as the function scales.
WHAT YOU’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
Lead and develop Lumi’s Customer Success / Retentions team, driving strong performance across utilisation, refinance, rollover, and repeat originations
Own team conversion outcomes across the existing customer base, ensuring consistent activity, pipeline discipline, and high-quality customer engagement
Build deep sales capability across the team, coaching for stronger discovery, positioning, objection handling, and closing
Upgrade talent capability through hiring, development, performance management, and clear expectations
- Ensure the team operates in line with Lumi’s broker-led model, engaging customers in a way that supports brokers and strengthens channel relationships
- Work closely with Broker Distribution teams to coordinate customer engagement, maximise repeat opportunities, and maintain broker trust
- Partner with Marketing to design and execute campaigns that increase customer utilisation and repeat funding
- Work with Strategy and Data to ensure the team has clear, prioritised customer target lists and actionable insights
- Drive a strong prospecting culture across the team, with clear activity standards and accountability
- Improve customer understanding across the function, ensuring the team can identify funding needs early and position Lumi solutions effectively
- Collaborate with Credit, Product, and Operations to remove friction and improve customer conversion and experience
- Contribute to overall revenue and portfolio performance, taking ownership of the success of the existing customer book
- Continuously refine playbooks, processes, and team structure to support scale as the business grows
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
This function is critical to Lumi’s growth.
Our existing customer base represents one of our biggest opportunities, and this role is responsible for ensuring we maximise utilisation, retention, and lifetime value, while continuing to support our broker-led distribution strategy.
We are looking for someone who can take ownership of this area, build a high-performing team, and help shape what this function becomes as Lumi continues to scale.
