Lifecycle Marketing Manager

The Thuma team is seeking a Lifecycle Marketing Manager. Reporting to the SVP of Digital you will lead the execution and continuing optimization of the email marketing and SMS marketing programs at Thuma.

Thuma’s Headquarters is based in the historic Presidio neighborhood of San Francisco. While we don’t mandate any in-office time, we prefer candidates based in the Bay Area but are also open to fully remote.

In recognition of the personal and professional benefits that team members gain from time spent together in person, we organize a range of events throughout each year designed to bring our entire team together!

Key Responsibilities:

• Working closely with cross-functional partners across Thuma’s Growth/Experience, Digital Product, and Brand/Creative teams, the Lifecycle Marketing Manager will:
• Own the creation and optimization of emails marketing and text marketing — ensuring brand standards are met and technical tracking is functioning
• Lead project management for all email & SMS creative deliverables, with both internal stakeholders and vendor partners
• In collaboration with the Brand and Go-to-Market teams, create a monthly playbook for email and SMS that effectively balances brand, merchandising and performance goals and needs
• Consistently review and report on the performance of Thuma’s email program and test, with focus on finding the “why” and the “now what” insights within the data
• Own the proposal of modifications and tests to run for Thuma’s email and SMS strategy, based on holistic review of the email program performance, account structure, and other brand inspiration
• Build new email + SMS automations that support Thuma’s core business objectives and new Lifecycle initiatives, including improving prospect conversion to customer and building long-term customer loyalty
• Develop foundational understanding of how Thuma customers buy (i.e. which products, which marketing channels), and use that information to propose new automations, personalization in emails, and A/B tests to execute
• Identify priority tests for email + SMS collection on the Thuma site, and report on how those changes impact both sign-ups and prospect conversion to customers
• Working with cross-functional partners across departments, help develop, build and test new programs and solutions that remove hurdles to customer loyalty, give Thuma’s customers a reason to come back, and ultimately build a beloved home & furniture brand
• Support lifecycle marketing execution elements of key cross-functional projects (e.g. Thuma’s recent NYC retail launch)
• Support with ad hoc analysis and reporting around repeat purchase behavior and the overall impact of Lifecycle initiatives, including for cross-functional and executive stakeholders

This Might Describe You:

• Detail-oriented, a second sense for catching typos, linking errors and design inconsistencies
• A natural investigator, with a passion for finding nuggets of information within performance data and finding ways to drive success with that information
• A highly organized and team-first individual who can build cross-functional alignment through clear and consistent communication
• Experience developing campaign calendars and automated marketing strategies for large eComm brands
• Experience working in Klaviyo, with a large customer database

What You'll Need:

• 5+ years of experience in eCommerce and/or Marketing function at an eComm/DTC brand
• 4+ years of direct experience in Lifecycle Marketing or Retention Marketing, leading the creation of multi-pronged automated flows, building campaign calendars, and QA testing emails sent to 100K+ people
• Strong cross-functional collaboration and communication skills. This role will work effectively with team members across not only the Digital team, but all Thuma departments. 
• Strong organizational and project management experience.
• An ability to manage competing priorities and timelines, to consistently communicate on project progress, and to thoughtfully, but clearly share project prioritization to both upward leadership and cross-functional partners.
• Aptitude for reviewing and using data from disparate and sometimes conflicting sources
