Growth Marketing Manager, Retention & Lifecycle (LCM)
We’re seeking a strategic, analytical, and deeply customer-centric Growth Marketing Manager to own retention and lifecycle marketing at General Medicine. This role is perfect for someone who loves turning data into personalized, automated experiences that keep customers engaged, informed, and coming back. You’ll architect our lifecycle programs from the ground up—email, SMS, in-app messaging, retargeting, funnel optimization, and more.
Reporting to the Head of Marketing, you’ll be responsible for building the end-to-end lifecycle strategy, including all the buzzwords: onboarding, nurture, ongoing engagement, winback, product education, and retention. You’ll partner closely with product, clinical, and the rest of the marketing team to ensure every touchpoint is cohesive, compliant, and delivering meaningful patient value.
This role requires an operational thinker who can zoom out to design a strategy and zoom in to build and analyze flows themselves. You’ll help define the customer journey and be accountable for improving conversion rates, activation metrics, retention, and long-term LTV.
