Role Overview
Lula Commerce is seeking a Manager to lead our Account Management team to support our convenience store chain customers after they go live. This is a customer-facing, player/coach role where you will manage Lula's most important relationships as well as be the go-to resource and coach for a team of account managers.
Key Responsibilities
Oversee post-launch relationship: Work alongside and coach account managers (AMs), who act as day-to-day account contacts. Act as the backstop for complex customer questions, escalations and growth on enterprise accounts.
Run the growth playbook: Carry out promotions, first-party (1P/Lula Direct) adoption, new-feature pitches, store expansion and benchmarking in recurring account meetings, using AI tools to research, draft and prepare. The goal is retention and GMV growth.
Monitor account health and spot risk early: Track usage, missed-order rates, payout issues and engagement across your portfolio. Flag at-risk accounts and act before they become escalations or churn.
Lead account escalation resolutions: Research and partner cross-functionally to resolve issues raised by our merchants. Examples include accounting, tech, and branding.
Partner across teams: Work with Product and Engineering to escalate and track bugs, Finance to resolve payout, billing and reconciliation disputes, and Sales on expansion opportunities and new-location handoffs.
Bring the voice of the customer inside: Turn what you hear from enterprise accounts into clear product feedback and feature requests, and share recurring themes with Product and leadership.
Coach and develop AMs: Share best practices and know-how so AMs can handle common scenarios with confidence. Review their account work and help them grow.
Partner with onboarding on handoffs: Take accounts from the onboarding team once they are live, using the agreed handoff and launch SLAs, and check in regularly on accounts that may hit a curveball.
Report to leadership: Give the Head of Customer Success a regular update (weekly or biweekly) on account health, escalations, renewals and growth opportunities across your portfolio.
Act as backstop for Onboarding: Intervene to support accounts that become stalled in the Onboarding process.
Bring ideas, and help us test them: Suggest improvements to the playbook and help us try them out.
What Success Looks Like in Your First 90 Days
You know the product and our processes well enough to answer tough product and process questions from enterprise customers.
You have taken over oversight of key accounts from the Head of Customer Success through a clear handoff, and know each account's goals, risks and open issues.

You have handled your first escalations using our playbook, with leadership as backup, and have worked at least one through with Product or Finance.
You have a health view of Lula accounts and have flagged at-risk accounts with a plan for each.
The AMs see you as their go-to resource.
