The Opportunity: 

We are looking for a Retention Manager to join our Marketing Team. In this revenue-contributing role, you will be responsible for managing our owned channel experience, including email, SMS and push notifications, as well as designing and implementing digital strategies to retain new customers, nurture existing customers and win back churned customers, all while creating memorable customer experiences throughout. You will report to me and work closely with the rest of the marketing, ecommerce, and creative teams, as well as collaborate with client care and planning / operations. 

The ideal candidate is a driven and creative thinker with a conversion focused mindset who is able to come up with innovative strategies to engage our customers and keep them coming back to JENNY BIRD again and again. You enjoy digging into patterns of customer behaviour as a way to constantly grow a repeat customer base and re-engage past purchasers. You should be well-versed in owned channel management with technical experience working with an ESP/Marketing Automation and SMS management tool like Klaviyo, Braze, Attentive, Postscript or similar. 

Responsibilities: 

  • Collaborate with creative and editorial teams to plan and execute on a monthly content calendar for our email, SMS and push notification channels that will engage our audience, drive conversion, and support campaign and product launches.

  • Leverage audience and performance analytics to make informed decisions on strategy, as well as proactively explore new and untapped opportunities to drive revenue.
  • Support on weekly campaign reporting, including pulling KPIs for email campaigns, email automations, and SMS performance. 
  • Identify opportunities to experiment within our email and SMS channels to test and learn for our acquisition forms, content, creative, and audience segmentation.
  • Collaborate with our Client Care team to leverage feedback and continually optimize our customer’s experience. 

Note that some of the above responsibilities may be tweaked slightly based on the candidate's experience and areas of strength. Any such minor amendments to the above will be shared with the candidate as a part of the hiring process.

  • You collaborate well with others and enjoy working cross-functionally to bring new ideas to life successfully.

  • You have an entrepreneurial spirit, and are “in-the-know” with industry tactics for retention, customer LTV and customer lifecycle. 
  • You put the customer at the center of everything we do, and will strive to ensure that they are provided a great experience, while we work to increase their loyalty with JENNY BIRD.
