Job Purpose & Summary

The Customer Success Manager (CSM) serves as a trusted commercial advisor to our enterprise clients, delivering a high-touch, white-glove experience that drives account integration, stickiness and long-term customer longevity.

Operating with a continuous margin-optimisation mindset, the CSM balances external customer advocacy with internal commercial discipline - facing into Pricing & Procurement, Operations and the wider business to foster a culture of ongoing margin improvement while delivering consistently against Gross Profit(GP) and Volume targets.

  • Commercial Terms & Pricing Governance: Lead internal negotiations with Procurement & Pricing (P&P) via internal systems (e.g. Prometheus) to establish optimal sell rates, maintaining accurate Rate Cards to protect baseline revenues and gross margins.

  • Tender Ownership & Contract Renewals: Lead annual RFP/tender processes, contract extensions, and index-linked rate adjustment cycles for assigned accounts to safeguard existing volumes, lock in multi-year commitments and defend account profitability.
  • Peak Season Planning & Capacity Allocation: Lead annual Peak Season forecasting and readiness strategies with clients to lock in volume commitments, secure space allocation, and optimize GP margins during volatile or constrained market periods.
  • Quantified ROI Roadmaps: Build and own living Value Creation Plans per customer, tracking quantified ROI levers (e.g. transport spend reduction, working capital optimisation, productivity gains, CO2 reduction) to justify ongoing investment and expansion.

4. Cross-Functional Orchestration & Escalation Ownership

  • Internal Team Facilitation: Serve as the central entry point into Zencargo, mobilising and coordinating a tailored account team across Solutions, Operations, Product, Finance, Pricing & Procurement and Executive leadership to deliver on the customer's strategic goals.

  • White-Glove Customer Focus: Uncompromising dedication to delivering elite customer experiences, with the empathy, poise and responsiveness required for enterprise accounts.
