Sr Director, CRM & Growth Marketing

What You Will Lead

• The owned-channel engine. Email, SMS, push, and the website and location-page experience where a considering guest becomes a booked visit.
  • You own how these channels perform and how they work together as one guest journey.
• Loyalty and retention. A program with close to twelve million members, reimagined to actually drive frequency, spend per visit, and winback of guests before we lose them.
  • You own the loyalty strategy and the platform roadmap behind it.
• Personalization as the growth unlock. Moving from one message for everyone to relevant, behavior-based communication that reflects what a guest actually does.
  • This is where the largest revenue lift is sitting, and it is yours to capture.
• Lifecycle and CRM. The full guest journey from first visit to loyal regular, including dynamic journeys, always-on winback, and the offers and triggers that create a reason to return.
• The customer data and martech foundation. In partnership with IT, turning a fragmented stack across two brands into a connected, trustworthy, and activatable view of the guest.
  • You will help make the platform decisions that unblock everything else, and you will make our marketing investment measurable.
• Insights and measurement. Trustworthy, standardized reporting that proves the business impact of retention and loyalty, and gives leadership a clean answer to how our owned marketing is driving visits.

What We Are Looking For

• A CRM, lifecycle, and loyalty leader first, with real depth in owned channels and retention.
• You have built and run modern lifecycle programs and loyalty at scale, and you can point to the business results your work produced rather than the volume of campaigns you shipped.
• You are genuinely fluent in customer data and martech.
• You have owned the platform layer, not just the campaigns that sit on top of it, and you are comfortable making build, buy, and platform decisions alongside IT and finance.
• If your background is campaign execution and you have never owned the data, identity, and activation foundation, this is not the right fit, and that is okay.
• You see first-party data and personalization as the growth engine, not a reporting afterthought.
• You are energized by a turnaround, and you look at a fragmented stack and an underperforming program and see the upside rather than the mess.
• You are collaborative by default and decisive when it counts, you develop the people around you, and you are genuinely curious about the guest, the occasion, and what actually brings someone back.
