We are seeking a Senior Marketing Manager to lead the end-to-end strategy and execution for a high-priority co-branded credit card program. In this high-impact role, you will champion a marquee member benefit—the 5% cash back offering—and sit at the vital intersection of membership, financial services, and product marketing. You aren’t just managing a product; you are the architect of the full customer lifecycle, driving growth from initial acquisition through long-term engagement and retention.

The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in credit card or financial services marketing, excels at managing complex partner relationships, and thrives in a fast-paced, highly cross-functional environment.
Responsibilities:
- Lead end-to-end product marketing strategy and execution for a co-branded credit card program, including acquisition, onboarding, engagement, and retention.
- Own and manage the external financial partner relationship, serving as the primary marketing point of contact and ensuring alignment on strategy, campaigns, and performance goals.
- Partner closely with internal financial services teams and external partners to align on business priorities, regulatory considerations, and customer experience.
- Develop and execute integrated, multi-channel marketing campaigns across owned channels (CRM, site, app), paid media, and partner channels.
- Define and optimize the customer lifecycle journey, including onboarding flows, usage triggers, and retention strategies to maximize lifetime value.
- Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Analytics, Brand, Media, Creative, Legal, Compliance, and Site teams to deliver seamless and compliant customer experiences.
- Translate data and insights into actionable strategies, continuously testing and optimizing campaigns to improve key performance indicators such as application conversion, activation rates, spend, and retention.
- Manage marketing inputs for partner assets, approvals, and compliance requirements, ensuring alignment across internal and external stakeholders.
Qualifications:
- 5+ years of experience in product, growth, or brand marketing, preferably within credit cards or financial services.
- Proven ability to manage external partners or financial institutions and influence cross-functional stakeholders.
- Strong understanding of credit card marketing fundamentals, including acquisition and lifecycle management.
- Experience developing and executing integrated, multi-channel campaigns across owned and paid channels.
- Data-driven mindset with the ability to translate insights into performance optimization.
