Customer Success Associate Jobs in Somerset West, Western Cape, South Africa at Allocator

Title: Customer Success Associate

Company: Allocator

Location: Somerset West, Western Cape, South Africa

Allocator is the data and portfolio management platform built solely with institutional investors in mind, serving leading endowments, foundations, pension funds, family offices, sovereign wealth funds, private banks, and fund-of-funds around the world.

We help the largest asset allocators replace spreadsheets and manual work with a single source of truth across their alternative investment portfolios, spanning hedge funds and private capital of every strategy. We have grown revenue tenfold in the last five years, we are AI-forward in how we work, and we are only getting started.

We are hiring a Customer Success Associate, a smart and ambitious graduate to join our Customer Success team and help our institutional clients get more value from Allocator every quarter. You will start close to the data, owning the relationships with the fund managers who supply it and using AI tools daily to work faster and smarter, then grow into broader client work as automation takes on the manual side. It is a rare chance to join a fast-growing business early, work alongside senior leadership and some of the world's leading investment teams, our clients, from day one, and build a career in customer success and investment data.

What you will own:

  • A portfolio of fund manager relationships end to end, making sure their data reaches us complete, on time, and accurate
  • Onboarding of new managers and funds, from first call through their first reporting cycle
  • The quality and coverage of your data, using exception reports to find and fix problems before clients do
  • Escalations when reporting breaks down, owning the conversation through to resolution
  • A real part in automating the work, using AI to cut out manual steps and steering what Product builds next
  • Regular exposure to the world's leading investment teams, our clients, and the fund managers behind many of the top funds in the market

What you will bring:

  • A strong academic record and a bachelor's degree in any discipline
  • A genuine curiosity about investment markets and data. You do not need to be an expert, but you should know the basics
  • Comfort with technology and real enthusiasm for AI. You will use AI assistants and automations as everyday tools to work faster and smarter
  • A personable, presentable, and articulate style that lands well with clients and fund managers
  • Initiative, organisation, and the discipline to juggle a lot without dropping the detail

What we offer:

  • Professional development budget (for example CFA or CAIA)
  • Private medical cover
  • Pension plan contributions
  • Flexible working, with regular team socials and events
