The Company
PE-backed Regulatory Technology business approaching £45M ARR, with ambitious plans to reach £100M ARR by 2030.
Market-leading SaaS platform helping organisations reduce cyber risk through security awareness and compliance.
A Customer organisation of 40+ people spanning Customer Success, Account Management, Onboarding, and Managed Services.
Significant investment into the customer technology stack, including Salesforce, Gong, and Hook, creating a genuinely data-driven Customer Success function.
A business that believes Customer Success should drive commercial outcomes, not just customer happiness.
The Opportunity
Taking the lead for the Scaled Customer Success function, you'll define how a modern scaled CS organisation operates, leading two Customer Success Managers whilst remaining a highly visible, customer-facing leader.
You'll be just as comfortable coaching your team as you are stepping into executive customer conversations, driving adoption, challenging stakeholders, and influencing commercial outcomes across a £4-5M ARR portfolio of almost 1,000 customers.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This isn't a role for someone who wants to manage from behind a dashboard. They're looking for someone with the credibility and gravitas to become the senior Customer Success voice in the room when it matters most, leading strategic customer conversations, supporting complex accounts, and setting the standard for commercial Customer Success.
What You'll Be Doing
- Leading, coaching, and developing two Customer Success Managers.
- Owning the strategy, health, and performance of a scaled customer portfolio worth approximately £4-5M ARR.
- Delivering executive customer meetings, webinars, and strategic business reviews.
- Partnering closely with Account Management to maximise customer retention and renewal success.
- Using customer health, engagement, and product usage data to proactively identify risk and opportunity.
- Working alongside Customer Marketing, Digital CS, and Data & Analytics to continually improve the scaled customer journey.
- Acting as the senior escalation point for complex customer situations, leading by example through your own customer interactions.

- A proven track record managing scaled or high-volume customer portfolios.

Most importantly...
You understand that Customer Success isn't about keeping customers happy. It's about understanding why customers invested in your platform, aligning around the outcomes they're trying to achieve, and ensuring those outcomes are realised.
You'll be comfortable having difficult conversations, influencing senior stakeholders, and acting as the commercial partner who keeps customer value, adoption, and retention firmly aligned.
