We are seeking a hands-on Activation Manager / Developer to power the technical execution of our client's marketing teams within the Algomarketing's Centre of Evolution.
This role combines email development, event technology setup, and audience activation — ensuring every campaign runs seamlessly from invitation through attendance, supporting the wider Email developers and teams.
You’ll build and manage the tools, templates, and automations that bring events to life. Working closely with the Events Audience & Data Operations Analyst and the Account Manager, you’ll translate activation requirements into efficient, scalable workflows.
This is an execution-driven role for someone who loves to build, test, and optimize. You will manage the full operational lifecycle of event communications and delegate handling. You’ll code dynamic, responsive communications; maintain internal booking systems; and ensure clean data flow across platforms.
Success comes from technical precision, speed, and reliability — ensuring audiences receive the right messages at the right time, registration systems sync flawlessly, and every activation is delivered on time.
