Summary:

We're a fast-growing startup seeking a Retention Marketing Account Manager who's excited to make an impact and grow with us. This role is ideal for someone who's hands-on and strategic. You'll manage email, SMS, and loyalty campaigns for cannabis clients, but also play a key role in shaping how we scale retention marketing as a service. We're looking for someone who's ready to own their work now and grow into a leadership role as we expand.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and execute retention marketing strategies across email, SMS, and loyalty platforms for cannabis retail clients.
  • Create, implement, and manage automated and custom weekly marketing campaigns.
  • Collaborate with clients to gather assets, campaign briefs, requirements, and feedback in weekly meetings.
  • Design and optimize campaign templates for performance and engagement.
  • Track, analyze, and report on campaign performance metrics, using data to inform strategy.
  • Ensure campaigns align with clients' brand voice and goals.
  • Work cross-functionally with internal marketing teams to ensure cohesive campaign integration.
  • Stay current with retention marketing trends and best practices, particularly within the cannabis retail space.
  • Help build out internal processes and documentation to scale retention marketing efforts.

What Makes This Role Unique:

  • Growth Path: This role is designed to evolve. We're looking for someone who can step into a managerial role over time - helping to lead strategy, mentor new hires, and shape our retention services department
  • Startup Vibes: We're scrappy, collaborative, and growing quickly. You'll have a voice in the room and the ability to shape your role and our service offerings.
  • Ownership & Autonomy: You'll have plenty of responsibility right out of the gate - and the support to take initiative, make decisions, and build your lane.

Qualifications:

  • 2+ years of experience in email, SMS, or loyalty marketing, ideally in an agency or startup environment.
  • Strong client-facing communication skills — you're organized, clear, and empathetic.
  • Hands-on experience with retention tools like Alpine IQ, Klaviyo, Mailchimp, Happy Cabbage, or similar.
  • Ability to balance big-picture thinking with detailed execution.
  • A self-starter mindset with a desire to lead and grow with a team.
  • Familiarity with the cannabis industry is a plus, but not required.

Job Type: Full-time

Benefits:

  • Dental insurance
  • Flexible schedule
  • Health insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Parental leave
  • Professional development assistance
  • Vision insurance

Work Location: Remote
