  • Build and maintain customer segments across all three brands based on purchase behaviour, lifecycle stage, RFM (recency, frequency, monetary value), and engagement level.
  • Use segmentation to ensure the right message reaches the right audience at the right time, reducing unsubscribes, improving engagement, and driving conversion.
  • Identify high-value customer cohorts and develop targeted communications to grow their lifetime value.
  • Collaborate with the e-commerce team to ensure Shopify customer and order data is flowing correctly into Klaviyo and informing segmentation accurately.

  • Lead the development and ongoing optimisation of loyalty and VIP customer programmes, building the strategy, executing the communications, and measuring impact.
  • Manage post-purchase communications including product care, review requests, and customer education content.
  • Identify retention risks, lapsing customers, declining engagement, and build proactive programmes to address them.
  • Own list health across all three brands; managing suppression lists, re-engagement campaigns, and regular database hygiene to maintain deliverability and sender reputation.
  • Ensure compliance with GDPR and PECR requirements across all CRM communications, managing consent, opt-out processes, and data handling in line with legal obligations.
  • Monitor and report on CRM performance across all brands, including revenue contribution, open rates, click rates, flow conversion rates, repeat purchase rate, and list health, reporting regularly to the Head of E-commerce.
  • Connect CRM performance to broader commercial metrics using Google Analytics alongside Klaviyo and Shopify data, providing a clear picture of CRM's contribution to overall business performance.

Requirements

  • Familiarity with Shopify or a similar DTC e-commerce platform, comfortable understanding how customer and order data feeds into CRM and informs segmentation.
  • Strong grasp of segmentation principles, RFM, lifecycle stage, behavioural triggers, and experience applying them to improve targeting and relevance.
  • Comfortable working with campaign data and reporting on performance: revenue contribution, open rates, click rates, conversion, and list health.
  • Familiarity with Google Analytics and the ability to connect CRM performance to broader site and commercial metrics.
  • Experience managing a structured A/B testing programme and using results to drive improvement.
  • Solid understanding of GDPR and PECR compliance as it relates to email marketing, consent management, opt-out handling, and data hygiene.
