Position Summary

The Vice President of Client Support is a member of Illumia\'s operational leadership team, reporting to the COO. Customer support is both a cost center and a competitive signal — and Illumia\'s customers have long-standing relationships with the company and high expectations for responsiveness. This role exists to ensure that support is a differentiator, not a reactive cost center: a reason customers renew, not a source of escalation.

This is not a steady-state leadership role. Illumia is completing the operational unification of Transact and CBORD into a single, high-performing $600M software company. The support organization carries the weight of that history — two legacy cultures, two toolsets, and two sets of client expectations. The VP of Client Support is responsible for building the unified, high-performing support function that One Illumia requires: consistent standards, AI-enabled workflows, and a leadership team developed to carry the organization forward.

The COO\'s first-year mandate includes establishing support SLAs, driving generative AI adoption across the function, and making support a measurably better experience for Illumia\'s clients. This leader owns the execution of that mandate.

LEADERSHIP QUALITIES

We hire and develop people who are humble, hungry, and smart — and we hold our leaders to the highest standard across all three.

• Humble:
  • They lack excessive ego or concerns about status. The right leaders for Illumia don\'t need to own the spotlight — they share credit, define success collectively, and are quick to elevate the contributions of others. This is a company still writing its story. The leaders who thrive here find energy in building something together, not in being recognized as the smartest person in the room.

• Hungry:
  • They are always looking for more — more things to do, more to learn, more responsibility to take on. We are not looking for caretakers. We are looking for leaders who are restless about what\'s possible, self-motivated to close the gap between where we are today and where we need to be, and who are already thinking about the next opportunity before anyone asks.
• Smart:
  • They have common sense about people, dealing with others in the most effective way, and picking up on the needs and feelings of others. At Illumia, our leaders must operate across a complex, distributed organization spanning multiple product lines, two legacy cultures, and thousands of customers with competing priorities. Technical skills matter, but the ability to read a room, build trust across functions, and bring people along is what separates a great leader from one who burns the organization out.

WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU JOIN

• Flexible time off including paid holidays and volunteer time
• Robust health, dental, and vision insurance plans on your first day of employment
• Comprehensive employee assistance program (EAP)
• Employer-paid life insurance, AD&D, short-term and long-term disability insurance
• Flexible spending account (FSA) or health savings account (HSA)
• Matched 401(k)
• Employee stock purchase plan

Base salary offers for this position may vary based on factors such as location, skills, and relevant experience. Some positions may include additional compensation in the form of bonus, equity, or commissions.
