Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the CRM program end to end - set the strategy and roadmap for every email, push, and SMS, generate the ideas that move it forward, and be the person the company trusts to make the call.
  • Make AI and automation core - push the program from batch campaigns to an automated, AI-driven Next Best Action model that picks the right message, moment, and channel for each customer.
  • Lead full-lifecycle messaging - from user onboarding through repeat, winback, and loyalty, with repeat purchase as the core goal.
  • Explore new channels and surfaces - pilot opportunities like WhatsApp and in-app messaging in partnership with product, and scale the ones that work.
  • Lead and develop the team - coach the CRM team, prioritize sharply, and raise the bar on both execution and analysis.
  • Make CRM provably incremental - establish holdout testing and reporting so the program’s revenue impact is measurable.
  • Partner closely with product and data - work hand in glove to connect CRM messaging with the wider customer experience.

Requirements

  • 8+ years in CRM, lifecycle, or messaging marketing, including experience leading and developing a team.
  • A track record of driving repeat purchase, retention, and LTV ideally at a marketplace or other high-frequency consumer business.
  • Proven experience moving a program beyond batch-and-blast to triggered, automated, decisioned messaging and the appetite to push further with AI.
  • Hands-on depth with a modern CRM/messaging platform (we use Iterable) and strong customer segmentation.
  • An enthusiasm for leveraging AI and emerging technologies to innovate our CRM strategies and enhance both team and individual productivity.
  • Strong analytical rigor. Comfortable defining success metrics, using modern analytics tools, running experiments and tests, and judging true incremental impact
  • A full-ownership mindset. You set the agenda rather than wait for direction, and you’ve run a program where the strategy was yours to define, not just deliver.

Preferred

  • A genuine interest in theatre, live events, and the performing arts or experience in an environment with constantly evolving inventory, where what customers can buy is always changing.

Benefits

  • Hybrid work environment (blend of in-office and at-home days)
  • Up to 4 weeks per year of flexible 'work from anywhere'
  • Healthcare, vision, and dental plans, with generous contributions from the company
  • Life and disability insurance
  • Paid Parental Leave
  • Generous 401(k) Matching
  • Flexible Paid Time Off
  • Free membership to One Medical Group & Employee Assistance Program
  • Annual Professional Growth Budget
  • Employee donation matching
