Director of Retention

Live it Up is a fast-growing health and wellness company rewriting the script on healthy living. We see health holistically, more than just the absence of illness. It's about vibrant bodies and minds. Our mission is to give nutrition its color back and make a healthy lifestyle everyone can lead. Our secret? Natural supplement powders crafted from real superfoods, built into simple rituals that fit into any day.

What started with Super Greens has grown into a four-product portfolio that includes Hydration, Feel the Beet, and Golden Hour. With new flavors gaining traction, a Hydration 2.0 launch on the horizon, and more new products planned through 2027, we're entering our next chapter of growth, powered by a loyal customer base that keeps coming back.

• Set the Vision and Execute It:
  Own retention strategy at the highest level and roll up your sleeves to bring it to life. Help build out the retention team.

• You have 8+ years in retention, growth, analytics, or subscription strategy
  , with a track record of driving measurable gains in LTV, churn, and repeat rate

• You pick up numbers quickly and are comfortable pulling and working with raw data yourself.
  
  Experience with tools like Klaviyo and Recharge is a plus
• You lead with data.
  Cohort analysis, LTV modeling, and A/B testing are second nature
  , and you have extensive experience building cohort reporting that drives decisions
• You're AI-native. You look for ways to use tools that are smarter than you to work faster, automate the manual, and find insights others miss
• You think like a business owner, not just a marketer. You connect retention to product, launch, and inventory decisions
• You've managed a loyalty or referral program
  , have strong instincts for what makes customers come back, and know how to measure and test your way to the right answer
• You partner seamlessly across acquisition, product, brand and creative, and tech and analytics to deliver a unified customer experience
• You thrive in fast-paced environments and roll with the punches when plans shift. You get excited watching numbers move quickly
• You think in terms of rituals, relationships, and long-term value, not just open rates and clicks

• You've scaled a subscription brand past $100M ARR, managed retention programs through a product reformulation or relaunch, launched new products to an existing subscriber base, or built retention strategies in a clinical-claim-sensitive category

We care more about impact than years of experience. If you have a track record of scaling DTC retention programs to the next level, we want to hear from you!

This role will be based out of our New York City office, where we observe a hybrid model!
