Customer Success Manager

About the role

We're looking for a Customer Success Manager to be the primary post-sales owner of our customer relationships — making sure every customer is onboarded cleanly, supported through the messy bits, and continuously getting value from RetailNext. This is a hands-on, customer-facing role for someone who's equally comfortable troubleshooting a sensor at the store level and walking a regional director through a quarterly product review.

The right person for this seat is proactive, technically curious, and genuinely energized by long-term customer relationships. You won't wait for a ticket to land — you'll watch the health signals, spot trends before they become problems, and pull in the right teams to fix them. You're comfortable working independently across time zones, juggling multiple accounts, and switching fluidly between English and French depending on who's on the call.

This role sits at the heart of customer success at RetailNext. The work you do directly shapes whether customers thrive on our platform, and your feedback loop into product, engineering, and support is how the company gets sharper over time.

Reports to: Director of Customer Support

Location: South Africa — Fully remote

What You'll Do

Customer Onboarding & Enablement

• Own end-to-end onboarding for new customers, from kickoff through go-live
• Lead product training sessions for customer teams and store-level operators
• Coordinate with installation vendors to enable smooth deployment of Aurora sensors and supporting infrastructure
• Troubleshoot store-level setup issues across both software and hardware
• Set clear expectations early so customers know what success looks like from day one

Day-to-Day Customer Partnership

• Serve as the primary point of contact for all customer inquiries — product issues, setup questions, support escalations, and billing coordination
• Communicate fluently in French and English with customers across global markets
• Build long-term, trust-based relationships with customer stakeholders at multiple levels
• Translate customer pain into clear, actionable requests for internal teams

Customer Health & Adoption

• Monitor customer health across all Empowerment components and intervene before issues escalate
• Track product usage, engagement trends, and feature adoption using tools like Pendo
• Engage customers showing declining usage and run targeted recovery actions to get them back on track
• Drive adoption of new features by proactively communicating product updates and showing customers how they apply
• Monitor infrastructure health — device uptime and sensor performance — and initiate proactive fixes before customers feel the impact

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Coordinate with support, engineering, product, and operations to resolve customer issues quickly
• Drive accountability across internal teams so issues actually get closed, not just acknowledged
• Surface customer feedback to product and engineering to inform what we build next
• Identify root causes of recurring issues and partner internally to address them at the source

What We're Looking For

Required

• 2+ years of experience in a B2B SaaS customer success or account management role
• Professional proficiency in French (spoken and written) — able to communicate clearly and confidently with French-speaking customers
• Strong customer relationship management and communication skills in a B2B SaaS environment
• Ability to troubleshoot technical and operational issues across both software and hardware
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple customer accounts simultaneously
• Ability to collaborate cross-functionally and drive accountability for issue resolution
• Solid understanding of customer lifecycle management, onboarding, and success metrics

Valued but Not Required

• Familiarity with analytics platforms, IoT-based solutions, or retail technology
• Experience working with global customers across multiple time zones
• Hands-on experience with customer health and product analytics tools like Pendo

What We Offer

• Own a portfolio of French-speaking accounts end-to-end — onboarding, technical support, adoption, and retention all sit with you
• Work at the intersection of software, hardware, and IoT — your role spans Aurora sensor uptime, store-level troubleshooting, and SaaS adoption with Fortune 500 retailers
• Fully remote from South Africa with global customer exposure and real input into how we sharpen our customer success playbooks, tools, and processes
• Monthly Recharge Day
• Holiday Exchange Program
• Best Self Benefit Program
• Medical Insurance
• Work from Anywhere up to 90 days

Work closely with Compliance, Legal, Financial Crime Intelligence, and other business stakeholders to gather requirements and define product solutions.
• Innovation & Enhancement: Proactively identify opportunities for innovation and new features that improve the effectiveness and efficiency of our financial crime prevention capabilities. This includes leveraging new technologies like machine learning and AI to enhance our detection models.
• Regulatory & Compliance Expertise: Stay up-to-date with global financial crime regulations (e.g., AML, KYC, Sanctions, and Fraud) and emerging trends. Ensure our products are built and maintained in a way that meets or exceeds these compliance standards.
• Performance Analysis: Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) for our FinCrime products. Use data and insights to inform product decisions, measure success, and identify areas for improvement.
• Risk & Prioritization: Prioritise work based on a clear understanding of risk, business value, and technical complexity. Make difficult trade-off decisions to balance competing priorities from different business units.

Required Qualifications & Experience

• 3+ Years of experience as a Product Manager, preferably within the FinTech, Financial Services, or a related technology-driven environment.

• Excellent communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical and regulatory concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• A data-driven mindset and a track record of using data to inform product decisions.
• Experience in a highly regulated industry.

Desirable Skills

• Familiarity with financial crime tools and platforms (e.g., Transaction Monitoring systems, Case Management tools, Sanctions Screening software).

Takealot Fulfilment Solutions (TFS) is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Applicants from previously disadvantaged groups and people with disabilities will be given preference.

At 2U, we are all in on purpose. We are motivated by our mission – to eliminate the back row in education – and connected by our shared passion to deliver world-class digital education at scale. As the parent company of edX, the world’s leading online learning platform, 2U powers more than 4,000 online higher education offerings – from free courses to full degrees. Together with more than 230 colleges, universities, and corporate partners, we are helping to unlock human potential.

What We’re Looking For:

As the Senior Manager of Cybersecurity Operations, you will lead and mature 2U’s global cyber defense and security operations capabilities. This role is accountable for the effective execution of threat detection, incident response, vulnerability management, and operational security monitoring across a global enterprise.

You will manage and develop a team of security engineers responsible for day-to-day security operations, while also acting as the operational bridge between cybersecurity engineering, infrastructure, SRE, IT, and external partners (including managed or embedded resources). While remaining technically credible, your primary focus will be on operational excellence, incident readiness, process maturity, and ensuring consistent, high-quality execution of security operations at scale.

This role requires strong leadership, sound judgment under pressure, and the ability to translate technical security events into clear risk-based communication for senior stakeholders. You will own operational outcomes, ensure alignment to industry frameworks, and continuously improve tools, processes, and team capability to reduce risk across 2U’s most critical systems.

Responsibilities Include, But Are Not Limited To:

Cybersecurity Operations & Execution

• Own and oversee day-to-day cybersecurity operations, ensuring effective threat detection, investigation, response, and remediation across cloud, application, and infrastructure environments.
• Ensure security monitoring, alerting, and response processes are consistently executed, well-documented, and aligned to defined SLAs and severity models.
• Provide operational oversight of security tooling (e.g., SIEM, EDR, SOAR), ensuring tools are properly configured, maintained, and delivering actionable outcomes.
• Drive continuous improvement of operational runbooks, response workflows, and automation to reduce manual effort and improve response quality.

Cybersecurity Incident Management & Operational Readiness

• Own the cybersecurity incident management program, ensuring incidents are triaged, escalated, coordinated, and resolved effectively.
• Ensure clear roles, escalation paths, and communications are in place for security incidents, including coordination with SRE, Engineering, Infrastructure, IT, Legal, Privacy, and Communications teams.
• Lead post-incident reviews for security incidents, driving root cause analysis, remediation tracking, and systemic improvements.
• Ensure incident response practices align with industry standards and internal risk management expectations.

Engineering, Cloud & Application Security Alignment

• Partner with Cloud Security, Application Security, and Engineering teams to ensure security controls, detections, and response requirements are operationalised within cybersecurity operations.
• Ensure outputs from Cloud Security and Application Security initiatives (e.g., controls, detections, alerts, runbooks) are effectively integrated into security monitoring, incident response, and operational workflows.
• Act as the primary intake point for security-relevant operational signals from engineering and platform teams, ensuring they are triaged, prioritised, and actioned appropriately by cybersecurity operations.
• Collaborate with partner teams to identify gaps in detection, response coverage, and operational readiness, and drive improvements to expand and mature cybersecurity operations coverage.
• Serve as an escalation and advisory point for security-related operational issues, ensuring coordination with the appropriate domain owners (Cloud, Application, Infrastructure, SRE) while maintaining clear accountability.

Security Operations Coverage & Readiness

• Ensure cybersecurity operations maintain effective visibility and response capability across cloud, infrastructure, and application environments, aligned to defined risk and threat models.
• Oversee the integration of logging, telemetry, alerts, and response playbooks into operational tooling (e.g., SIEM, SOAR, EDR), without assuming ownership of underlying platform or application architectures.
• Partner with domain security teams to validate that new systems, services, and changes are adequately covered by operational security monitoring and incident response processes.
• Continuously assess and improve operational coverage to ensure cybersecurity operations can detect, respond to, and support incidents across the evolving technical environment.

Proactive Risk & Vulnerability Management

• Own the operational vulnerability management lifecycle, ensuring vulnerabilities are identified, prioritized, remediated, and tracked to closure.
• Use risk-based prioritization to balance remediation effort with business impact and operational realities.
• Ensure security findings and risk trends are translated into clear, actionable insights for technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Team Leadership & Partner Management

• Lead, mentor, and develop cybersecurity operations engineers, fostering a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and operational excellence.
• Provide direction and oversight to embedded or partner resources (e.g., Sonata), ensuring clear expectations, quality delivery, and alignment to 2U standards.
• Contribute to workforce planning, skills development, and operational maturity of the cybersecurity operations function.

Things That Should Be In Your Background:

• 5+ years experience in cybersecurity or security operations, with progression into technical leadership or people management.
• Experience leading or supporting security operations, incident response, or threat management in complex environments.
• Working knowledge of AWS; exposure to GCP or Azure is a plus.
• Comfortable with scripting/automation (e.g., Python, Bash) to guide and review operational improvements.
• Experience partnering on CI/CD and DevSecOps initiatives to ensure security signals feed into detection and response.
• Familiarity with cloud-native and containerised environments and their operational security risks.
• Required: Hands-on experience with SIEM and EDR platforms supporting security monitoring, investigation, and incident response.
• Beneficial: Experience with SOAR workflows and WAF technologies to support security automation and application protection.
• Strong analytical judgment, able to make risk-based decisions under pressure.
• Clear communicator with both technical teams and senior stakeholders.
