Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Running the CRM function day to day: one lifecycle roadmap, named owners across strategy, build and operations, and reporting the exec team trusts
  • Owning the activation journey (Day 0 to 90), retention, and cross-sell economics, the moments where customer value is actually made or lost
  • Building an AI-native CRM function, using Claude for lifecycle intelligence, content velocity and personalisation ahead of the market, with human review and compliance built in
  • Owning Braze end to end: the canvases, the data, the deliverability, and the operational grip that keeps it all running cleanly
  • Turning key lifecycle moments (rate step-downs, tax-year-end, first deposit, ChipX upgrade) into deliberate retention and cross-sell triggers, planned against margin
  • Making the January to April ISA season a lifecycle centrepiece, with activation and cross-sell converging on the highest-value window of the year
  • Owning the measurement of lifecycle impact: proving incremental retention and cross-sell value, not just campaign engagement
  • Working hand in hand with Finance on the economics: cohort retention, cross-sell value per customer, and the margin case behind every major journey
  • Working hand in hand with Compliance to make lifecycle work that is both effective and right for an FCA-regulated business
  • Working hand in hand with Product, Ops and CS to launch new products and ensuring the CRM experience is embedded and planned across new and existing products.
  • Coaching and developing a young, high-potential team, raising standards across strategy, build and operations, and hiring where needed
