Retention Marketing Manager


ABOUT THE ROLE
Lead Fleur du Mal’s retention growth engine across email and SMS through advanced segmentation, lifecycle architecture, personalization, testing, and measurement. This is a quantitative role focused on building scalable systems that increase repeat rate, AOV, and LTV, while decreasing churn and protecting brand experience and deliverability.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Lifecycle strategy + automation architecture

• Lead end-to-end lifecycle programs: welcome/activation, browse/cart/checkout abandon, post-purchase, cross-sell, replenishment, VIP, winback.

• Define customer-state logic (new/active/lapsing/lapsed/VIP) and trigger frameworks.

• Set channel governance: cadence, frequency caps, suppression logic, and contact strategy.

Advanced segmentation + personalization

• Build segmentation models: RFM, cohorts, category affinity, discount dependency, engagement, predicted LTV propensity.

• Deploy personalization: dynamic modules, product recommendations, send-time optimization, channel preference.

• Create segment playbooks and messaging strategy inputs for Creative/Merchandising partners.

Loyalty Program management:

• Operationalize loyalty across lifecycle: integrate loyalty status, and tier progression into segmentation, automation, and personalization (e.g., tier-triggered journeys, points-expiry flows, VIP concierge moments, winback offers tied to loyalty value).

• Measure and optimize loyalty performance: track incremental lift vs non-members (repeat rate, frequency, AOV, LTV, redemption rate, breakage, cost per retained customer), run A/B tests on benefits and messaging, and manage vendor/tool performance if applicable.

Analytics, experimentation + incrementality

• Own KPI framework and reporting: repeat purchase rate, retention rate, time-to-2nd purchase, incremental revenue, contribution margin impact, LTV lift.

• Build and run an experimentation roadmap (A/B, holdouts where feasible); operationalize learnings.

• Produce decision-grade insights (what changes, what scales, what stops).

Deliverability + list health + compliance

• Own deliverability strategy, list hygiene, complaint/unsubscribe management, and consent compliance (especially SMS/TCPA).

• Protect customer experience through fatigue management and preference strategy.

Data + systems rigor

• Partner with Data/Engineering to ensure event tracking and identity resolution are accurate.

• Own retention tech roadmap (ESP/SMS/CDP capabilities, audience sync, automation tooling).

Success metrics

• Repeat purchase rate, retention rate, churn reduction

• Automated lifecycle revenue + incremental lift (not just attributed)

• LTV and contribution margin lift

• Experiment velocity + measurable winners adopted

• Deliverability health, unsubscribe/complaint rates, list quality

QUALIFICATIONS

• 7+ years retention/lifecycle ownership with strong analytics depth

• Demonstrated advanced segmentation + automation design at scale

• Strong measurement discipline and comfort partnering with Data/Engineering

• Hands-on expertise in ESP/SMS platforms (Attentive and Klaviyo a plus) and CRM analytics
