About Kimberly Hiatt

I’m a Director of Partner Engagement with a background in accounting and a passion for helping clients move forward with clarity and confidence. At LLŪM, I work across sales and onboarding - reviewing client needs and financials, shaping realistic scopes of work, and guiding clients from decision to delivery.I hold a B.S. in Accounting from USC and am a licensed CPA, which allows me to bring both technical insight and a people-first perspective to strategic conversations. I’m especially energized by work that creates leverage - building better systems, enabling teams, and helping organizations succeed by doing fewer things exceptionally well.I stay busy spending time with my twin daughters and son and enjoy cheering on football and soccer. I value balance, consistency, and long-term growth, both professionally and personally.

Experience

1. Director of Partner Engagement

   LLŪM

   Oct 2025 — Present

   In my role at LLŪM, I support prospective and ongoing clients across the sales and onboarding lifecycle, serving as a strategic partner from evaluation through execution readiness. I am deeply involved in second-stage prospect review, assessing financial readiness, identifying risks, shaping proposals, and ensuring engagements are clearly scoped and aligned before work begins.I work closely with internal teams to create structured onboarding experiences that set both clients and controllers up for success - bridging the gap between sales commitments and delivery realities. My focus is on clarity, alignment, and client confidence during moments of transition, helping ensure engagements are positioned for long-term success rather than short-term wins.
