We’re hiring a CRM leader to help shape one of the most important growth levers inside a fast-growth founder-led consumer brand.
This is not a standard CRM role. It is a broader retention, customer value and relationship-building position inside a business that wants to do much more than send better emails.
The company has grown from zero to more than £20m revenue in under three years and built strong momentum through DTC. The next phase is about building a smarter, stronger owned-customer engine, one that improves repeat purchase, deepens loyalty, strengthens LTV:CAC and helps turn customer relationships into real long-term brand and commercial value.
We’re looking for someone who can own CRM as a commercial and strategic function, helping the business move customers from first order to repeat, build more relevant and more premium customer journeys, and think more ambitiously about loyalty, membership and community over time.
This is a hybrid role with 3 days per week at the HQ in Cheltenham.
If you are excited by the idea of helping build a smarter, deeper and more ownable customer relationship model inside a fast-growth brand, we’d love to hear from you.
Own CRM strategy across lifecycle, retention and repeat purchase
Improve first-to-second-order conversion and long-term customer value
Build more relevant segmentation, journeys and customer communications
Create stronger links between CRM, eCommerce, Paid and trading priorities
Help define what loyalty, membership and community could mean for the brand
Improve how CRM contributes to LTV:CAC, retention quality and brand experience
Build a more disciplined approach to testing, reporting and optimisation
Experience in a high-growth consumer or DTC brand
Strong CRM or retention ownership
Commercial understanding of lifecycle value, repeat economics and customer behaviour

Strong judgement, low ego, high ownership
Genuine ownership of a critical growth and value-creation lever
Brand with real energy, distinctiveness and momentum
Opportunity to shape loyalty and customer relationship strategy early
Strong visibility and influence across the business
Strong package and meaningful bonus opportunity
