Director of CRM (100% Remote)

Our Client is an independent creative and digital marketing agency founded in 2006. We are a remote-first team with team members across the world and offices in New York City and Los Angeles. We partner with some of the world's most loved brands to grow their direct-to-consumer (DTC) businesses. Clients include L'Oreal Paris, Well+Good, Kiehl's, Hu, SmartyPants Vitamins, Gap, and Rowing Blazers.

We are known for our expertise in designing e-commerce experiences that delight customers while also driving results. We are looking for a thoughtful, creative, and fearless leader to take our impact to the next level with CRM.

We believe CRM is about more than segmenting audiences and growing email lists. We see CRM as an essential part of a brand's ecosystem, strengthening relationships with customers through better understanding their needs and finding more effective ways to serve them.

The CRM team is responsible for driving customer acquisition, retention, personalization, and loyalty through the development of robust CRM programs, including analysis of website analytics and performance. The Director of CRM will lead this charge, defining and redefining process, inventing new services, all the while, mentoring and building a team to support this vision.
