What you'll do

  • Own retention end to end, including repeat purchase rate and subscription retention, especially in months two and three
  • Own the retention tools the company already has and the ones it is missing; keep what works working, improve it, and build what is not there yet, starting with a loyalty program
  • Review the full customer journey, from the website to the package to everything post-purchase, and make it coherent: same message, same brand, no gaps
  • Lead a Shopify developer and a web and brand designer who work under you to keep the site consistent and ship the changes you prioritise
  • Grow the Facebook community of Flow customers and make it part of why people stay
  • Provide a clear weekly view of retention, repeat purchase and the metrics the support team reports, so the founders know where they stand

What we're looking for

  • Have owned retention or lifecycle at a subscription or consumable DTC brand at meaningful scale, at Director level or above, and can show the numbers you moved: cohort retention, repeat rate, LTV
  • Have built a retention function, or a large part of one, rather than inherited a finished machine: the tools, the team, the reporting, the experiments
  • Hands-on with the Shopify ecosystem, Klaviyo or an equivalent email and SMS platform, a subscription app (Recharge, Skio or similar), post-purchase and loyalty tools, and analytics
  • Have managed a team or outside vendors and are comfortable briefing a developer and a designer
  • Hungry to try things nobody in the category has tried, and still happy doing unglamorous work, from packaging vendors to flow audits
  • Based in the US, or in Europe with a working day that overlaps US Eastern hours

Nice to have

  • A consumables or wellness background
