POSITION OVERVIEW

Are you a hands-on lifecycle marketer who loves turning strategy into precise, high-performing campaigns? We're looking for a Sr. Marketing Campaign Analyst to join our lifecycle marketing team and help execute customer engagement programs across key member channels. This role will focus on campaign execution across email, SMS, push, and direct mail, helping drive engagement, retention, and long-term customer value.

You will partner closely with Lifecycle Marketing, Product, Analytics, Design, Content, Legal, Compliance, Engineering, and Marketing Technology to ensure campaigns are accurate, timely, compliant, and effective. You will also help improve how campaigns get built by documenting processes, identifying execution gaps, and recommending scalable workflow improvements.

This is a senior individual contributor role. You will contribute ideas and recommendations that shape lifecycle programs. Success means campaigns launch reliably, workflows scale cleanly, testing and reporting improve over time, and customers receive relevant, high-quality communications.
