Purpose of Role
The Customer Marketing Manager role is both a strategist and operator within Consuela’s marketing organization responsible for shaping and scaling our customer retention ecosystem. Reporting directly to the Vice President of Marketing, this role owns the strategy, execution, and performance of customer lifecycle marketing across email, SMS, and direct mail with the overarching objective of increasing customer retention, engagement, and lifetime value (LTV).

This role is based onsite in Austin, TX, and remote candidates will not be considered.
