The Senior Manager, CRM will report to the Director of CRM, Revenue Expansion, and lead our global customer upsell and winback campaign strategy across email, push, and in-app messaging.

You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver regionally optimized campaigns that will drive upsell and cross sell opportunities, and increase CLV.
