The Opportunity
Are you an ambitious and strategic email marketing expert with creative flair and performance mindset? This is an opportunity to lead email strategy for a portfolio of lifestyle, fashion, and travel brands within a creative and strategy-driven performance marketing agency based in Derby. You would be joining an agency known for building brand stories, automating intelligently, and driving conversions through every step of the customer journey. They are scaling fast – but thoughtfully and building a team of ambitious marketers who want to own their work, test bold ideas, and drive genuine impact. If you love email marketing, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and know how to balance brand with data, this could be an awesome career move for you. This job is located in Derby but hybrid working is available with potential to be onsite just one day a week if you are commuting from far away.
Key Responsibilities
* Leading email strategy for a portfolio of lifestyle, fashion, and travel brands – ensuring campaigns align with broader marketing and revenue goals.
* Creating and presenting channel strategies directly to clients, backed by performance data and customer journey insights.
* Auditing client email accounts (primarily on Klaviyo), identifying performance gaps, compliance issues, and strategic opportunities.
* Building high-performing campaigns and flows using segmentation, personalisation, and automated logic.
* Continually testing, learning, and optimising – from subject lines and send times to content, CTAs, and flow logic.
* Working closely with designers and copywriters to ensure brand-aligned, conversion-friendly creative.
* Tracking performance using tools like Klaviyo analytics, GA4, and client dashboards.
* Keeping on top of email best practices, privacy regulations (including GDPR), and industry innovations.
* Supporting or mentoring junior team members (if relevant), sharing best practices and guidance.
About You
You will have 3+ years of hands‑on experience in email marketing, ideally within an agency or DTC environment and strong working knowledge of Klaviyo would be ideal (other platforms considered) including flows, A/B testing, segmentation, and analytics.
You will show an ability to critically assess and audit existing email strategies and recommend improvements and be comfortable managing multiple clients, deadlines, and priorities at once.
As a confident communicator and presenter, you will be able to explain data‑driven strategy in a clear, compelling way with a strong grasp of data, testing frameworks, and creative optimisation.
Meticulous attention to detail will be needed and you will be someone with a love for process, but is not afraid to challenge the norm.
