About Tilt 🛸

Tilt’s mission is simple: Make Commerce Alive.

From static store website builders to impersonal marketplaces, today's ecosystem is aging fast. It was built for transactional experiences, not for the new generation of merchants who grow through attention, community and personality.

In the UK alone, millions of shoppers, from sneakerheads and Y2K girlies to collectors and parents, have signed up to Tilt. Our platform has helped sellers go from zero to £1M+ in earnings, and hundreds more earn above the UK median income.

And we are just getting started.

Your Mission 🫵

As we scale, retention has become one of the most important growth levers in the business. We’re looking for a Retention Marketer who can turn users into repeat buyers through smart segmentation, lifecycle flows, and high-impact offers.

This is not a basic “email marketer” role. This is a full-stack lifecycle strategist who owns the user journey from install through first purchase to becoming a loyal customer. You will own the end-to-end retention engine: email, SMS, notifications, offers, segmentation, and cohort-based experimentation. Your job is simple: bring users back, get them to buy again, and keep them coming back.

What You'll Do 👷

0–3 Months: Foundation + Fast Wins

• Build & launch in app retention notification message flows

• Create clear frameworks & funnels to increase first time buyer conversion rate

• Segment users & understand at what are clear buying points

• Own reporting (retention, user cohorts, category insights)

3+ Months: Scale + Retention Ownership

• Automate all flows and work with the product team to implement new features

• Own the retention roadmap

• Audit and rebuild the entire retention funnel, from first session through first purchase to repeat purchase.

• Build a multi-touch onboarding framework tailored to user type (auction users vs buyers vs browsers).

• Improve activation journeys to reduce drop-off between install, follow sellers, streams, purchase.

What You’ll Do 👇

Lifecycle & CRM

• Build and optimise email flows across onboarding, reactivation, education, and loyalty.

• Create high-converting SMS sequences that drive urgency and repeat purchase.
  Own all CRM tools, automations, and lifecycle journeys.

Notifications & Messaging

• Continuously split-test notification copy, timing, and segmentation.

• Plan retention moments around drops, live events, category pushes, and platform-wide offers.

In-App Retention Offers

• Create and manage in-app incentives (offers, rewards, vouchers, credits).

• Own the retention marketing budget and ensure strong ROI.

• Test offer structures by user type, behaviour, and category.

Cohort & Behaviour Analysis

• Identify user cohorts (e.g., sneaker buyers, Y2K shoppers, auction users, high AOV buyers, inactive users).

• Run targeted tests across messaging, targeting, and offers per cohort.

• Analyse user behaviour across categories, sellers, price points, and events to improve activation and repeat purchase.

Data, Reporting & Experimentation

• Build dashboards and reports for DAU/WAU/MAU, reactivation, and repeat purchase metrics.

• Run ongoing experiments to improve activation, engagement, and RPR.
  Collaborate with product, supply, marketing, and creators to influence user behaviour and retention.

Who You Are 📋

• 2+ years of experience in retention, lifecycle marketing, or CRM (marketplace or e-commerce ideal).

• Deep knowledge of email, SMS, CRM tools, segmentation, and flows.

• Strong copywriter with the ability to craft persuasive retention messaging.

• Analytical thinker who understands funnel drop-off, cohort decay, and behavioural segmentation.

• Comfortable working fast, running experiments, and iterating weekly.

• Obsessed with user psychology, incentives, and what makes people come back.
  Nice to have

• Experience with in-app offers, rewards, or gamification systems.
