• Identify when passive churn occurs for various WordPress.com segments and conduct re-engagement campaigns to intervene early on in the lifecycle.
• Launch campaigns to maintain high levels of adoption for customers already extracting a lot of value from WordPress.com. Conduct frequent subject line and copy tests on existing and new engagement campaigns such as in our newsletters, surveys, and triggered and drip email campaigns.

You:

• Use both quantitative and qualitative data to propose and evaluate business impact and opportunities.
• A strong proactive communicator and writer, self-driven, and comfortable with setting and managing own priorities and deliverables.
• A cross-team collaborator, able to effectively work with teams across multiple departments, time zones, and functions.
