By 6 Months

Launch redesigned B2C loyalty communications with tier-based personalization-targeting 15-20% lift in engagement

2

Implement automated B2B nurture workflows across SFMC/Sailthru-reduce manual outreach by 40%

3

Lead cross-functional CRM strategy refresh with marketing, product, legal, data engineering-document technical roadmap for next 12 months

Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You've managed CRM platforms (SFMC, Sailthru, Klaviyo, etc.) at scale-millions of subscribers, not thousands
  • You've designed and launched loyalty programs with proven engagement/retention lift metrics
  • You're comfortable code-free campaign design (HTML email, forms, landing pages) and understand technical compliance (CAN-SPAM, GDPR)
  • You thrive in matrix teams-translating requirements from marketing, sales, product, legal, and data into operational reality
Won't Work If
  • You need remote flexibility-this is on-site only in Universal City
  • You're tactical-only-this role demands end-to-end strategy, architecture, and 1:1 execution ownership
  • You lack hands-on CRM platform experience-you'll be designing/coding campaigns, not just managing people
