ABOUT THE ROLE
We are looking for a strategic yet hands-on Director of CRM & Retention to own lifecycle marketing and customer loyalty across multiple channels. Reporting to the VP of Marketing and managing an Email Marketing Specialist, this role will be responsible for designing and optimizing CRM campaigns, enhancing the post-purchase journey, and using data-driven insights to deliver impactful segmentation and personalization. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in CRM, customer engagement, and retention strategies, with proven success in managing tools, leading teams, and leveraging analytics to drive measurable business growth.

Own and optimize the CRM tech stack, touchpoints, and e-commerce customer interactions by managing relationships with tech partners, leading the discovery and implementation of new tools, and ensuring seamless lifecycle marketing capabilities, retention tools, and operational scalability.
Monitor, analyze, and report on CRM performance metrics, including testing results, to refine channel operations, uncover actionable opportunities, and improve acquisition, retention, and overall performance from a business perspective.
