CRM Operations Lead
£60k - £65k GBP
Chip is scaling fast — and as our CRM programme grows, the complexity of our orchestration, targeting, data dependencies, and compliance obligations grows with it.
The CRM Operations Lead is the technical and operational owner of our CRM platform (Braze) and the systems and processes around it. This person ensures our campaigns and customer communications run with high reliability, correct targeting, clean data, and strong controls, while enabling the CRM team to move quickly and confidently.
You will act as the technical point-of-contact for Braze across the business, partnering closely with Engineering, Data, Product, Compliance, and CRM Strategists/Producers to deliver best-in-class lifecycle marketing and transactional messaging.
This is a highly cross-functional role — equal parts marketing tech, process leadership, governance, and operational excellence.
What you can expect to be doing:
Build, test, and deploy non-marketing communications in Braze.
Act as the technical point-of-contact for all Braze requirements.
Manage user permissions, attributes, and event data within Braze.
Collaborate cross-functionally on integrations and requirements.
Maintain rigorous QA and monitoring of live automations.
Support service and incident escalations with CRM-related actions.
Ensure data hygiene, deliverability, and compliance across all CRM operations.
Educate and support colleagues on Braze tools and technical best practices.
What we’re looking for:
Deep technical proficiency with Braze
Understanding of CRM data integrations
Strong understanding of data structures, attributes, and event-based triggers.
Experience managing user permissions, roles, and platform governance in Braze.
Knowledge of email and push deliverability monitoring
Background in CRM Operations or Marketing Automation within fintech, or another regulated industry.
Familiarity with QA, auditing, and incident escalation processes.
Strong collaboration skills.
Confidence in troubleshooting technical issues quickly and independently.
Exposure to scripting or query languages a plus.
Braze Certification (Admin or Practitioner) highly desirable.
Detail-oriented, with a focus on accuracy, reliability, and governance in all CRM activity.
What we’re really looking for: ✍️
Someone with a genuine interest in Chip and is excited about being part of a fast-growing company and our mission to build the investment super app of the future.
Although we’re in the financial space, and under the scrutiny that comes with it, the current marketing team works well together, and even sometimes with a smile. We’re sure you’ve got the technical skills, otherwise, you would have stopped reading by now, so let us be clear on what will make us want to work with you.
We want a real person, with interests outside of work, to join our team. You could be a dancer, a gamer, a musician, a parent, a hockey fan, or even that one person that still writes Twilight fan-fiction. Doesn’t matter to us.
At the interview stages, we will be looking for empathy, eq, fun stories, and the ability to smile even when things are tough.
