Job description

FNP's customers buy around moments: birthdays, anniversaries, festivals and the \"I forgot, need it today\" emergency. As Manager – CLM, you will drive customer engagement across the full lifecycle, from first purchase to repeat, loyalty and win-back. This is a hands‑on execution role: you will personally build, test, launch, monitor and optimise CLM campaigns and journeys in CleverTap, while using customer data and insights to improve repeat revenue and retention.

Key Responsibilities

Lifecycle strategy & journeys

• Own the CLM roadmap across new, active, lapsing, lapsed and high-value customers.
• Design and optimise automated journeys for onboarding, first-to-second purchase conversion, post-purchase experience, cart and browse abandonment, re-engagement and win-back.

• Own hands-on, day-to-day campaign execution in CleverTap: create segments, set up flows/journeys, configure campaigns, QA content and links, schedule and launch campaigns, run A/B tests, monitor delivery/performance and troubleshoot execution issues.

Manage frequency capping, channel prioritisation, suppression logic and customer contactability across channels.
• Continuously identify, evaluate and test new customer communication avenues and owned touchpoints beyond standard outbound channels, including in-app experiences, website pop-ups/interventions and other emerging communication formats.
• Build RFM, cohort, propensity and category-affinity segments (flowers, cakes, gifting, plants, personalised gifts, international).
• Drive personalisation using purchase history, occasion data, geography, delivery preferences and customer value tier.
• Own CLM KPIs: repeat rate, retention, CLV, reactivation rate, channel-wise revenue contribution, unsubscribe and opt-out rates.
• Run a structured test-and-learn programme and share insights with Marketing, Category, Product and Tech.
• Prepare weekly, monthly and quarterly CLM performance reports with clear recommendations.
