CRM Retention Manager

£55,000 – £62,500 DOE

Manchester | 4 days in office

Our client is an ambitious D2C challenger brand with a highly engaged customer community and a proven track record of customer acquisition. As the business moves into its next phase of growth, the opportunity now centres on what happens after the first purchase: increasing retention, frequency, loyalty, and long-term customer value. With subscriptions currently accounting for around 10% of revenue, an established loyalty scheme and a mobile app used heavily by loyal customers, there is genuine scope to build a much stronger recurring revenue engine.

The CRM Retention Manager will own and shape the wider CRM and retention strategy, using customer data and commercial insight to identify opportunities, build the roadmap and turn ideas into measurable revenue growth.

Role Highlights

  • Own the CRM and retention strategy across the full customer lifecycle, going well beyond traditional email marketing.
  • Deep-dive into cohorts, customer behaviour, LTV, CAC, repeat purchase and churn to identify where commercial opportunities exist.
  • Lead lifecycle activity across email, SMS, app push and other owned channels, with Klaviyo central to execution.
  • Take the loyalty proposition to the next level while identifying opportunities to grow subscriptions, replenishment, frequency and customer value.
  • Work closely with the SLT and wider commercial teams, turning customer insight into clear recommendations and decisions.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

You Will Need

  • The confidence to independently own the CRM function while coaching and developing an existing CRM Executive.

Why You’ll Love It

  • A genuine opportunity to grow a subscription revenue stream that currently represents around 10% of the business.
  • The chance to refresh an established loyalty proposition and shape the future customer experience.
  • Direct exposure to the SLT, with the opportunity to influence wider commercial and customer decisions.
  • Significant autonomy to build the CRM and retention function and make your mark on the next stage of growth.
