Do a good job! Best of luck!
This literally refers to some task or situation to be undertaken. The wisher (speaker) urges his interlocutor to do his best.
A more general wish is : Tibi feliciter! Tibi feliciter eveniat!
This is addressed more to Higher Powers, who or whatever they may be, rather than to the interlocutor.

I wish you success! or Be successful!
That's how I would translate it, very similar in meaning to our 'Good luck'.
bene adv.; comp. melius; superl. optime; [well , rightly, properly]; 'bene rem gerere' [to succeed];
