What you'll do

As the Senior Director of Email Operations you'll lead and evolve a global 14-person team managing one of our most critical and high-leverage owned channels: email. This is not a maintenance role - it's a transformation mandate. You'll modernize our email platform, drive innovation in personalization, orchestration, and process to reimagine how we engage millions of customers across their journey.

You'll own the strategy and operations behind our email ecosystem - from audience management and analytics to governance, in-product communications, and cross-channel integration. You'll be a critical partner to teams across lifecycle, regional, and product marketing, helping them deliver high-impact campaigns rooted in data, powered by automation, and built for scale.

This role is a high-visibility opportunity with massive upside: we are invested in improving the foundation, the team is strong, and our next phase requires visionary leadership to unlock the full potential. Join us on our mission to transform how email drives impact at scale.

This position is a people manager role reporting to the Vice President, GTM Channels & Campaigns.

Responsibility

• Lead and scale a high-performing 14-person team across email operations, in product communication, audience management, webinar production, email analytics, and governance

• Act as a strategic business partner to lifecycle, regional, product, and event marketing teams to deliver value through owned channels

• Collaborate with Martech, IT, and data teams to evolve infrastructure and unlock smarter, more personalized communication

• Improve customer-centric messaging strategy through experimentation, process improvement, and tighter Martech integration

• Influence effectively without authority at varying organizational levels in and outside assigned function

• Be regarded by stakeholders as a trusted advisor, as evidenced through stakeholder feedback
