Senior CRM Manager - SumUp Pay

Senior CRM Manager – SumUp Pay

About the team

SumUp is building a full-featured personal account for consumers across Europe, making it easy to spend globally, manage money, and get rewarded for everyday spending.

This is the first dedicated CRM hire for the Consumer team – a rare opportunity to build lifecycle strategy from scratch and own how we communicate with customers across every stage of their journey, from first install through to long-term habit.

High ownership, high impact, with real scope to shape how SumUp Pay talks to its customers for years to come.

What you'll do

• Own lifecycle journeys across push, email, in-app modals, and banners, with a relentless focus on the moments that drive growth: KYC completion, card activation, first transaction, feature adoption, re-engagement

• Form hypotheses, run experiments, interpret results, and move fast, this is not a set-and-forget role

• Monitor product usage data to identify friction points and translate them into CRM interventions or product improvement recommendations

• Define and manage user segments, run A/B tests, and continuously iterate on activation, engagement, and retention across six European markets

• Own Iterable end-to-end – data mappings, event taxonomy, user profile schemas, working closely with backend engineers to keep the data clean and the platform healthy

• Partner with the GTM team to align messaging, timing, and targeting with broader SumUp growth initiatives

You'll be great for this role if you…

• Have hands-on ownership experience across multi-channel lifecycle campaigns in a high-growth consumer product, fintech or neobank experience a strong plus

• Think in funnels, cohorts, and activation rates, not just open rates and click-throughs

• Are comfortable with event-driven architecture and understand how real-time triggers power effective customer journeys

• Can work confidently across technical and non-technical stakeholders, translating platform logic into clear campaign strategy and back again

• Have built from scratch before - you're energised by the absence of a playbook, not slowed down by it

• Are hands-on enough to unblock yourself: you can read event schemas, navigate a data model, and work alongside engineers as a peer
