What you will do

As a Retention Specialist, you will help establish Lighthouse’s dedicated retention capability for non-managed accounts, acting as the first line of defense against churn. This is a hands-on operator role: you will handle churn requests, investigate account risks, apply retention playbooks, create recovery plans, and execute scalable outbound interventions that protect recurring revenue. You will combine data, persuasive objection handling, automated workflows, and AI tools to improve win-back outcomes and follow each case through to a clear resolution.

Where you will have impact

Protect recurring revenue: Turn timely, account-level intervention into stronger renewals, fewer cancellations, and improved win-back outcomes across the non-managed customer segment.

Recover customers in distress: Build credible, tailored plans that address the reasons customers intend to leave and give them a clear path back to value.

Build a scalable outbound motion: Move beyond reacting to churn requests by combining predictive risk signals, digital campaigns, and targeted human outreach.

Strengthen case ownership: Create a reliable end-to-end approach in an area where ownership of non-managed account churn is currently limited.

Optimize retention ROI: Use case outcomes and performance insights to refine playbooks, workflows, and Lighthouse’s engagement model over time.

Provide account-level intervention: Handle the specific, hands-on work required when general retention campaigns are not enough.

Protect larger customer relationships: Lead the response when risks emerge in larger accounts while coordinating closely with the relevant commercial and customer teams.

Generate actionable insight: Log churn reasons and identify recurring customer pain points, creating a feedback loop that strengthens lifecycle campaigns, informs product priorities, and helps commercial teams focus their time effectively.

About our team

You’ll join a collaborative, high-visibility team working at the intersection of  Customer Engagement ,  Customer Operations , and broader post-sales functions. This role partners closely with stakeholders across customer engagement, customer care, account management, and product-related teams to improve how Lighthouse supports customers at scale.
