• 8+ years of experience in customer, CRM, or lifecycle marketing roles, with a track record of progressive seniority and commercial impact • Deep CRM and customer specialism, having built and run sophisticated lifecycle programmes with meaningful automation and personalisation at scale • A clear point of view on agentic AI and customer engagement. You're not waiting to see how it plays out; you're already building in this space or have a strong thesis for how to • Marketplace or platform background, with an understanding of multi-sided business dynamics and the complexity of serving buyers, sellers, and partners simultaneously and a passion for customer centricity • Commercial sharpness. You think in revenue and lifetime value, not open rates • Entrepreneurial instinct. You've built things from scratch, not just inherited and optimised • Global team leadership, with a track record of creating alignment across distributed teams and markets • Experience in fintech, consumer tech, or high-consideration categories where trust and timing are everything • Exposure to businesses navigating a step-change in AI adoption, where the question isn't whether to use it, but how fast and how well • WHAT THIS ISN'T • If that question excites you, keep reading. If it makes you nervous, this probably isn't the right fit.
Responsibilities
