About the Role


We're seeking a data-driven email marketer to build and scale Affinity's lifecycle marketing program that drives new business pipeline and converts prospects into customers and expands customer accounts.

  • Design triggered email flows based on prospect behavior and engagement signals
  • Build A/B testing strategies to continuously optimize email performance and conversion rates
  • Design and maintain compliant preference centers that meet CAN-SPAM and GDPR requirements while optimizing subscriber experience. Work with operations to implement proper consent mechanisms, manage opt-in/opt-out processes, maintain suppression lists, and ensure all email communications include required elements.

  • Analyze engagement patterns to inform re-engagement strategies, lifecycle stage progression rates, and nurture velocity. 
  • Maintain strong deliverability through inbox placement monitoring and sender reputation management. 
  • Report on campaign ROI, cost per conversion, and email’s contribution to overall marketing goals.

Content Development & Personalization

  • Collaborate with Product Marketing to develop compelling email content that addresses buyer pain points
  • Leverage AI tools for prospect research, content personalization, and message optimization
  • Create educational email series showcasing ROI, deal flow acceleration, and relationship intelligence value
  • Develop sales enablement email templates and sequences for outreach programs

How You'll Work


  • Think conversion-first: understand that every email should drive prospects closer to a buying decision
  • Own your numbers: be accountable to clear quarterly goals for pipeline generation, conversion rates, and revenue impact
  • Leverage marketing automation and analytics tools daily to optimize campaigns and measure performance
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product Marketing, Sales, Demand Generation, and Revenue Operations teams
  • Measure what matters: track open rates, click-through rates, conversion rates, pipeline contribution, and revenue impact
  • Operate with agility in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple campaigns simultaneously

What We're Looking For


  • 3-5 years experience in lifecycle or email marketing in a B2B SaaS environment
  • Proven track record managing email marketing programs that drive measurable pipeline and revenue growth
  • Strong analytical skills with ability to interpret campaign data and develop actionable optimization strategies
  • Excellent communication skills
  • Proficiency with marketing automation platforms (Pardot, Marketo, HubSpot), Salesforce, and analytics tools
  • Experience with AI tools for workflow automation, personalization, and campaign optimization
  • Collaborative approach with ability to work across marketing, sales, and operations teams
  • Ability to manage multiple campaigns and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment
