Customer Success Manager
Holborn, London (Mon & Fri WFH)
£45k–£55k base | £60k–£70k OTE
Certus Recruitment Group is working with a fast-scaling, mission-led SaaS business transforming how schools approach student wellbeing.
In the last 12 months alone, they’ve grown their client base by 300% and now support schools across the UK and 40+ countries globally. With usage set to triple again, they’re investing in Customer Success to ensure every school sees real, measurable impact.
This is a high-touch, consultative CSM role where you’ll work directly with educators, leaders, and stakeholders to drive adoption, engagement, and long-term success.
The Role
You’ll own a portfolio of ~150 schools, acting as a trusted advisor across teachers, leadership teams, and wider stakeholders.
This is not a passive account management role.
You’ll be hands-on — coaching, guiding, and influencing schools to get the most out of the platform, improve student outcomes, and embed wellbeing into everyday learning.
Success here is measured through retention, engagement, and growth.
Responsibilities
If you enjoy working closely with customers, driving real outcomes, and being part of a business with purpose — this is a strong opportunity to step into a high-impact CSM role.
Particularly suited to someone who wants more ownership, more influence, and more meaning in what they’re doing day-to-day.
Certus Recruitment is a well-established and experienced specialist consultancy providing sales, marketing, and IT recruitment services. We serve the technology sector across the UK, Europe, North America, and Australia.
