Summary Generated by Built In

As our Retention Marketing Manager, Churn & Winback, you own both sides of keeping our customers: stopping departures before they happen and bringing the right customers back when they go. In a footprint under constant pressure from overbuilders and national carriers, every save and every win-back is revenue we do not have to re-earn. You read the data signals that predict churn, then turn them into personalized, well-timed campaigns that change minds. This is end-to-end retention, proactive and reactive, and it is yours to own.


What You’ll Do:
  • Own Retention End-to-End: Lead both proactive efforts to prevent departure and reactive efforts to win back the right former subscribers.

  • Predict and Prevent Churn: Use churn signals (e.g. contract end dates, complaints, usage changes, competitive threats) to launch timely, personalized save campaigns.

  • Segment and Target at Risk: Leverage segmentation to tailor offers and interventions to the right at-risk customers instead of treating the base as one group.

  • Run Smart Win-Back Campaigns: Own targeted win-back initiatives for former customers, matched to why and when they left, and deploy on the channels most likely to succeed.

  • Retain Movers: Manage the customer move journey, using move/address-change data to keep customers with Armstrong when they relocate.

  • Defend Contested Markets: Partner with the Competitive Manager to create and deploy aggressive, market-specific save/win-back plays in areas with overbuilder or wireless competition.

  • Align With the Save Desk: Collaborate with the call center to align on save strategies, ensuring frontline teams and marketing operate as one.

  • Test and Optimize Relentlessly: Bring an iterative, test-and-learn approach to new retention tactics, scaling what works.

  • Own the Retention Data: Partner with Marketing Ops & Analytics to manage data sources for churn, save, and win-back reporting. 

What You’ll Need:
  • 4+ years in retention, churn, or CRM marketing, ideally in telecom, broadband, or another subscription business

  • Proven experience building save and win-back programs with measurable churn impact

  • Strong segmentation skills and comfort turning data signals into targeted campaigns

  • A strong grasp of churn analytics, predictive modeling, and customer health scoring

  • An iterative, test-and-learn mindset across both proactive and reactive tactics

  • Hands-on experience with direct mail, email, and outbound retention

  • A competitive instinct for defending share in contested markets

  • Comfort embracing emerging technology, including AI, to work more efficiently, for example for churn prediction, save-offer optimization, and win-back propensity

  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, or a related field, or equivalent experience

  • Bonus: mover programs, address-trigger marketing, or telecom competitive intelligence

What's in it For You:
  • Make an immediate, measurable impact, since every customer you save is revenue we do not have to win back

  • Lead retention at a pivotal moment, with new products giving customers fresh reasons to stay

  • Outsmart bigger competitors with sharper, more personal, more local plays

  • Join a family-owned company trusted by its communities for nearly 80 years

  • Competitive compensation and benefits, in a mission-driven culture built on trust
