About the role

Most of these clients have a list they never use. Somebody enquired, did not buy that week, and never heard from them again. This role is the difference between a list and an asset.

It is writing as much as it is setup: welcome sequences, follow up after a quote, reasons to come back, and the occasional campaign that has to earn its place in a full inbox.

This listing stays up while the role is open, and every application is read.

People in this role work on Seed Light's Digital Marketing projects.

Responsibilities

  • Plan the sequences a business needs: welcome, follow up, win back, repeat purchase
  • Write the emails, in the client voice, short enough to be read on a phone
  • Segment lists so people are sent things that apply to them
  • Keep deliverability healthy: authentication, list hygiene, and honest opt outs
  • Report on what email produced, in sales and bookings rather than opens

Requirements

  • You have run email that produced sales, and can show the sequence
  • You write plainly, and you can write a subject line worth opening
  • You understand segmentation, and why sending everything to everyone stops working
  • You know what breaks deliverability, and how to fix a domain that is being filtered
  • You test rather than assume, and you keep the record

Nice to have

  • You have worked with e-commerce flows: basket recovery, post purchase, replenishment
  • You have migrated a list between platforms without losing consent records
  • You understand PDPA consent well enough to keep a client on the right side of it

Tools

Mailchimp or Klaviyo, GA4, Google Sheets, n8n, WordPress. The licences and subscriptions the job needs are paid for, and knowing every one of these already is not expected.

Your first three months

  • Month 1. An audit of what each client is already sending, and the gaps in it.
  • Month 2. The core sequences live on two accounts, written and measured.
  • Month 3. You own the email programme across the accounts and its reporting.

Questions about this role

Questions candidates usually ask before applying. If yours is not here, add it to the message box on the form.

The automation role builds the plumbing: the triggers, the CRM updates, the data moving between systems. This one decides what gets said, to whom and when, and writes it.

The email marketing specialist works mainly in Mailchimp, with Klaviyo used for online stores. Send a relevant work sample showing how you used one of those platforms, the judgement behind the sequence or campaign and what you learned from its results.

Some clients do and had forgotten. Others need the list building first, which usually means fixing what happens after a form is filled in rather than buying data.

Buying email lists is outside the role. The email marketing specialist works with contacts who have a valid reason to receive the message, keeps consent records where required and protects the sending domain from avoidable complaints and blocks.

Email success is measured through revenue and enquiries attributed to email, together with the health of the list over time. The role therefore looks at the results connected to the channel and the condition of the list used to produce them.

Send a sequence you wrote and explain what it achieved. If performance figures are confidential or unavailable, say so and submit the writing itself.
