Responsibilities

• Develop a deep understanding of Going's Braze integration, lifecycle program, and marketing tech stack, identifying the highest-impact opportunities to improve member experience and business results.
• Take ownership of the lifecycle calendar and campaign workflows, establishing clear intake, prioritization, QA, and conflict-free scheduling.
• Build a consolidated view of lifecycle performance and establish a reporting cadence with leadership.
• Get to know your team — their goals, strengths, and development areas — and establish your management rhythm (1:1s, rituals, priorities).
• Publish a prioritized lifecycle roadmap and experimentation plan.
• Own the strategy, enhancement, and execution of the full lifecycle program. Including scaling personalized, omni-channel communications across email, push, in-app, and web that support the Going mobile app, website, and new-to-market product value.
• Own performance and reporting end-to-end (onboarding through winback), continually improving key metrics like activation, adoption, engagement, retention, and LTV, and owning the dashboards that track and socialize results.
• Apply AI to all relevant automated journeys to increase program performance and team efficiency.
• Translate business goals into delivery requirements — data, segmentation, targeting logic, and dynamic content — partnering closely with Data, Product, and Engineering teams on technical projects.
• Hire, mentor, and develop a high-performing lifecycle team that approaches problem-solving with a member-first mindset and a strong testing culture.

Requirements

• 8+ years in lifecycle/CRM/retention marketing for B2C brands (ideally a consumer app or subscription business), with 3+ years leading and developing people.
• Proven ownership of an end-to-end lifecycle program across multiple channels (email, push, in-app, web), including calendar ownership and program governance.
• Deep, hands-on expertise in Braze (or a comparable enterprise CRM) — Canvas, segmentation, behavioral triggers, and personalization/Liquid logic.
• Strong analytical skills: cohort analysis, LTV modeling, A/B testing, and retention/funnel reporting. Comfortable building and socializing dashboards. SQL experience or willingness to learn.
• Hands-on experience applying AI to lifecycle marketing — e.g., AI-driven personalization, send-time optimization, predictive segmentation, dynamic content, and automation — with the judgment to evaluate AI outputs against brand and quality standards and awareness of data privacy/governance.
• Track record of partnering with Data, Product, and Engineering to ship technical projects; able to translate fluently between technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• A strong copywriter who can write clear, on-brand, high-converting copy across email, push, in-app, and web.
• Proven campaign development chops — you can take a campaign from concept and brief through messaging, creative direction, and execution, and you partner effectively with designers (strong briefs, balancing brand voice with performance).
