Customer Engagement Manager

Hello, we’re Starling. We built a new kind of bank because we knew technology had the power to help people save, spend and manage their money in a new and transformative way. We’re a fully licensed UK bank with the culture and spirit of a fast-moving, disruptive tech company. We’re a bank, but better: fairer, easier to use and designed to demystify money for everyone. We employ more than 4,000 people across our London, Southampton, Cardiff and Manchester offices.

Reporting to the Customer Engagement Lead in the Customer Engagement Team you will play a key role in helping create communication experiences that foster customer loyalty and increase product awareness and adoption.

You will be responsible for developing and delivering compelling communications across a channel mix that includes email, mobile notifications and in-app messaging. Working autonomously you’ll be hands on briefing, designing, building, executing and analysing campaigns.

You’ll take the lead on communications supporting large-scale campaigns driven by product and marketing initiatives. You will also be instrumental in spearheading the development of our automated customer journeys. Whether it’s early life, retention or re-engagement, your expertise will be required to meticulously analyse customer behavioral data, identifying opportunities to integrate communication flows that yield measurable outcomes and significant business value. We welcome a test-and-learn curious mindset, you should always be on the lookout for how we can improve our communications through tech and industry innovation, or through new ways to effectively communicate with our customers.

We are a regulated bank and with that comes great responsibility. You must have a strong eye for detail and an understanding of processes that need to be followed. That being said, we don’t want to feel like ‘any other bank’, we want everything we put in front of customers to feel relevant, timely and help them be good with money.

We’re looking for someone who is comfortable working at pace and in an agile environment,  and able to adapt to business priorities and the rate of product development.

• Annual leave is increased with length of service, and you can choose to buy or sell up to five extra days off
• 16 hours paid volunteering time a year
