Fat Earth, Red Antler's creative performance marketing partner, is looking for a Senior Lifecycle Account Manager to lead strategy and execution of lifecycle marketing programs for brands across DTC, B2B, SaaS, consumer apps, hospitality, and more. This is a senior role for someone who thinks creatively about the full customer journey, knows how to build programs that drive real retention and revenue, and can hold their own in a room with ambitious clients, including large enterprise organizations with complex tech stacks and multi-team stakeholder structures.
You will bring a sharp, well-developed point of view on lifecycle strategy and know how to translate it across industries, verticals, and channels at scale. You are fluent across email, SMS, push, and in-app messaging, and you have deep experience with subscription, loyalty, and retention programs.

You are comfortable navigating sophisticated ESP environments including enterprise platforms like Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and can move fluidly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
Our ideal Senior Lifecycle Account Manager communicates well with the Director of Lifecycle, other account managers, email specialists, the creative team, the growth team, and clients. You will demonstrate strong attention to detail and excellent project management skills, collaborate strategically, and consistently produce high-quality deliverables across a complex, multi-account portfolio.
