About the Role

  • Build and deploy email campaigns from provided briefs, templates, and copy, including promotional, newsletter, and transactional sends.
  • Format and QA email content (layout, links, personalization, dynamic content, accessibility basics) to ensure a clean experience across devices and inboxes.
  • Set up audiences/segments based on the provided criteria and confirm that the counts align with expectations.
  • Execute A/B tests (subject lines, preview text, creative variations) and document results.
  • Manage campaign checklists and approvals, ensuring deadlines are met, and launches run smoothly.
  • Troubleshoot basic ESP issues (rendering, broken links, tracking parameters, audience mismatches) and escalate when needed.
  • Maintain email templates and modules, working with existing design systems and updating components as directed.
  • Apply tracking/UTM standards and confirm analytics are firing correctly.
  • Support list hygiene and deliverability best practices (unsubscribe compliance, suppression management) following team guidelines.
  • Keep documentation current, including processes, naming conventions, and send logs.

Compliance & Best Practices

  • Ensure compliance with email marketing regulations (e.g., CAN-SPAM, GDPR, CASL).
  • Stay current with industry trends, competitive benchmarks, and emerging email technologies.

Success looks like

  • Emails launch on time with minimal QA issues.
  • Templates and modules stay consistent and on brand.
  • Accurate audience setup and tracking across campaigns.
  • Organized documentation and smooth cross-team coordination.
  • Steady improvement in execution speed and quality over time.

Nice-to-haves

  • Familiarity with lifecycle concepts (welcome, nurture, post-purchase, winback) even if not leading strategy.
  • Experience with basic segmentation logic and dynamic content.
  • Exposure to accessibility or deliverability best practices.


Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Business, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 3–5 years of proven experience in email marketing, CRM, or lifecycle marketing.
  • Proficiency in email marketing platforms (e.g., HubSpot, Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Marketo).
  • Strong understanding of deliverability, segmentation, automation, and personalization best practices.
  • Excellent copywriting and editing skills with a knack for persuasive, customer-focused messaging.
  • Strong analytical mindset with experience using A/B testing and email analytics tools.
  • Familiarity with HTML/CSS for email is a plus.
  • Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple campaigns and deadlines simultaneously.
