Overview
About cabi
cabi is a 23-year-old fashion brand celebrated for its one-of-a-kind Fashion Experience and personalized styling services, offered through cabi Stylists across the U.S., Canada, and the U.K.
We believe in the transformative power of fashion and storytelling to inspire confidence in women everywhere. Our team thrives in a collaborative, innovative environment where every member contributes to delivering exceptional experiences. At our core, we aim to connect deeply with our audience, offering clothing and a sense of style and empowerment.
The cabi Collection is primarily sold through trunk shows but is also available online and through our mobile app. Designed to meet women’s needs for all the moments in their lives, the Collection features contemporary workwear, sophisticated everyday looks, and elevated basics.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a Sr. Manager, Lifecycle Marketing & Engagement, to play a pivotal role in shaping cabi’s customer engagement strategy. This role will develop and manage cabi’s loyalty program and lifecycle marketing initiatives for two key audiences – our Hostess community (women who host styling experiences) and our Shopper community (customers who love and buy our fashion). In this role, you will own end-to-end loyalty program development, create personalized lifecycle campaigns for both Hostesses and Shoppers and leverage audience analytics to drive retention and growth. You will collaborate across teams to source exciting partnership rewards and ensure that every touchpoint aligns with cabi’s empowering brand culture. Success in this role requires a strategic thinker who is as comfortable analyzing data as they are brainstorming creative engagement ideas. You will champion a collaborative and empowering approach to marketing, working closely with cross-functional partners to build programs that foster loyalty, community, and long-term customer value. Ultimately, your work will help connect women through style, enhance their experiences with cabi, and drive sustainable business growth.
Success in this role means owning the customer journey – from onboarding new Hostesses and Shoppers to rewarding their loyalty and re-engaging them over time. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in CRM with an emphasis on email marketing, a knack for interpreting data into action, and a passion for building community-driven programs. If you are excited about creating meaningful connections and empowering women through an innovative loyalty experience, this is the opportunity for you.
