Growth Marketing Manager

Job Description

As a Lifecycle Marketing Manager at Sage, you'll own the strategy and execution of multi-channel lifecycle marketing programs focused on growing revenue from our existing customer base in North America. You'll design and run lifecycle plays that drive cross-sell, upsell, and retention, using customer insight, experimentation, and growth marketing tactics to influence customer behavior over time.

This role is suited to a growth marketer or lifecycle marketer who experienced in building performance-driven multi-channel programs and campaigns, testing and iterating on what works, and seeing a clear connection between their work and commercial outcomes. You'll be hands-on in shaping lifecycle strategy at the program level — deciding how plays are designed, launched, and optimized — and executing those programs end to end.

The impact of this role is measurable. Success is defined by how lifecycle programs contribute to growth and retention, including ARR, and by your ability to continuously improve performance through testing and optimization. If you're looking for a role where lifecycle marketing is treated as a growth engine and where you can see the impact of what you build, this team offers that environment.
