Customer Launch Manager

Money stress is the biggest productivity killer in the workplace - My Money Matters exists to change that. We're building an app that improves employees' finances automatically every pay day - giving them financial tools that directly improve their financial health with less effort.
 
Every pay day is an opportunity to build better money habits. We make it easy. Employees can accelerate retirement savings with tax-efficient pension top-ups, build a safety net effortlessly with auto savings, or access their already-earned salary ahead of pay day for emergencies.
 
For employers, fewer employees with money worries means more focus on work. We're trusted by major organisations including the NHS, and we're growing fast.

Role Overview

As a Customer Launch Manager in our Launch team, you lead customer onboarding from contract signature to go-live. You take over from Sales and get each new customer live in under 30 days, with as many employees signed up as possible from day one.

You own the journey from signature to launch: set-up, payroll and data readiness, employer communications and the pre-launch sign-up drive. Speed and take-up are what matter. A fast launch means our customers see value sooner, and every employee signed up at launch is revenue from day one.

Once the customer is live, you hand over to the Account Manager, so they pick up a live, well-understood account that is ready to grow.

The role is hybrid, with 1-2 days in the London office per week.

Key Responsibilities

Handover from Sales

- Take a structured handover from Sales at contract signature, confirming scope, products, key contacts and launch date

- Support Sales on late-stage deals where needed, so what is sold can be launched quickly

- Run a kick-off with the employer within the first week and agree a launch plan with clear owners and dates

Launch in Under 30 Days

- Own each launch end to end, from kick-off to go-live, for a portfolio of new customers

- Build out a mutually agreed launch plan with the customer

- Get payroll, data and integrations ready, working through requirements, testing and sign-off with the employer

- Spot risks, dependencies and blockers early and remove them before they slip the date

- Keep launches consistent and repeatable, using standard playbooks and adapting only where the customer needs it

Sign-ups Ready for Launch

- Own a pre-launch sign-up target for every launch

- Plan employee communications with the employer and Marketing: announcements, webinars, pay-slip messages and on-site sessions

- Equip HR, Payroll and line managers to promote the service

- Track sign-ups against target in the run-up to launch and act quickly where take-up is low

Handover to Account Management

- Hand each live customer to the Account Manager with a clear record of scope, stakeholders, sign-ups and next opportunities

- Run launches of new products for existing customers when the Account Manager closes an expansion

Cross-Functional Collaboration

- Sales: feedback on what speeds up or slows down launch, so deals are shaped to launch well

- Marketing: launch campaigns and sign-up materials

- Product and Engineering: raise blockers early and feedback on set-up friction

- Improve the launch playbook, documentation and ways of working over time

How Success Is Measured

Speed and take-up come first; quality of handover protects both.

Skills & Competencies

Core Skills

- Strong delivery and coordination: runs several launches in parallel and hits dates (formal project management background not required)

- Pace and urgency: removes blockers rather than waiting for them to clear

- Confident with payroll, data and integration requirements, and able to lead those conversations with customers

- Campaign mindset: knows how to drive employee take-up through clear, well-timed communications

- Communicates clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders, from payroll teams to HR directors

- Takes ownership of outcomes, not just activity, with minimal day-to-day direction

Experience & Background

- Proven track record delivering customer onboarding, implementation or launches in a SaaS or platform business

- Experience driving user or employee adoption, ideally in employee benefits, payroll, HR or financial wellbeing

- Experience managing several customer projects at once against tight timelines

- Experience with payroll data, integrations or HR systems is advantageous

- Experience with public sector or other complex organisations is advantageous but not essential

What the Role Is Not

- A reactive technical support role

- A back-office set-up role: launch success is measured by sign-ups, not just go-live

- A long-term account role: once a customer is live, the Account Manager takes over

- A role requiring task-level direction

This role suits someone who loves pace and ownership and wants to see every launch go live quickly with employees signed up and ready to benefit.
