The Role

We are looking for a Lifecycle Growth Manager to own player engagement, retention, and monetization across the full customer lifecycle. This is not a traditional CRM role. You will own the full lifecycle marketing function end-to-end, from strategy and campaign ideation through to execution, analysis, and optimization. You will define what we should run, why it matters, and what success looks like, then bring it to life.

Product Marketing Integration

• Partner with Casino and Sportsbook teams to turn product features, events, and releases into compelling campaigns

• Translate games, promotions, and platform features into clear player-facing value propositions

Segmentation & Personalization

Campaign Execution & Delivery

• Build and deploy CRM campaigns directly within platforms (email, SMS, in-product messaging)

• Own campaign QA, scheduling, and launch

• Ensure campaigns are executed accurately and on time

Required Experience & Skills

Experience

• 4–7 years in CRM, lifecycle, or growth marketing

• Experience in iGaming, crypto, gaming, or high-frequency consumer platforms preferred

• Proven track record of running experiments and driving measurable outcomes

Skillset

• Ability to connect product features to marketing campaigns

• Strong understanding of customer lifecycle and retention mechanics

Traits
