This role sits within Marketing and is focused on scalable campaign strategy, experimentation, and measurable revenue impact. WE WANT TO HEAR FROM PEOPLE WHO… View things from the customer’s perspective. You bring an empathy-first lens to lifecycle marketing, pairing qualitative insight with behavioral data to craft messaging and experiences that move customers through activation, adoption, and expansion stages. You validate assumptions through segmentation, testing, and performance analysis. Understand how small changes supercharge growth. You recognize how incremental improvements across onboarding flows, nurture programs, and feature adoption campaigns compound into meaningful gains in activation rates, retention, and LTV. You proactively identify optimization opportunities across the funnel. Can zoom in… and out! You understand the full lifecycle funnel — from new user activation through long-term retention and advocacy — and can also dig into channel-level performance, experiment design, and conversion metrics to drive improvements at specific stages. Fail fast and learn faster. You operate with a strong experimentation mindset, launching A/B tests and iterative improvements across channels. You use performance data to inform strategy, double down on what works, and quickly refine what doesn’t. Collaborate instinctively. You lead cross-functional lifecycle initiatives in partnership with Product Marketing, Content, Paid, Sales, and Customer Success — aligning messaging, launches, and growth initiatives while maintaining clear ownership of marketing strategy and execution. RESPONSIBILITIES Identify and launch changes to the customer journey via email, in-app notifications, text messaging, and more to increase Givebutter adoption, usage, and retention.

Manage review sites like G2, Capterra, and TrustPilot to generate reviews and increase Givebutter’s brand sentiment and reputation. Build and scale customer marketing programs that turn high-sentiment users into public champions through review generation, testimonials, and social proof — integrating success stories and positive reviews into the broader lifecycle strategy. Generate success stories through outreach to successful users that signal positive sentiment, working with the Content Marketing team to bring those stories to life.
