About the Role:
We are looking for a Lifecycle Marketing Lead to own the customer journey after signup. Your goal is to increase activation rates, reduce churn, and drive expansion revenue through automated, personalized communication.
Candidates from FMCG/B2C backgrounds with strong experience in segmentation, loyalty, and high-volume customer engagement are welcomed
What You’ll Do:
- Journey Mapping: Map the end-to-end user journey, identifying critical drop-off points in the onboarding process and designing interventions to fix them.
- Automation: Build and optimize email and in-app workflows in HubSpot to guide users from "Signup" to "Active User" to "Advocate."
- Churn Prevention: Develop "early warning" campaigns that identify at-risk customers based on usage data and re-engage them before they leave.
- Drive Expansion: Execute upsell and cross-sell campaigns to grow existing customer value (ARPU), promoting add-ons and new products to the right users at the right time.
Requirements
- 4+ years of experience in CRM, Lifecycle, or Retention Marketing.
- You understand that the right message sent to the wrong person is spam. You are obsessed with behavioral triggers and customer cohorts.
- Strong experience with Marketing Automation platforms (HubSpot experience is a major plus, but we are open to experts in others who can learn quickly).
- You are strategic enough to design the map, but operational enough to build the workflows and analyze the data yourself.
- You know how to write compelling copy and set up rigorous A/B tests for subject lines and content to continuously optimize open rates and conversions.
