Role Summary
The Email Content Strategist is responsible for shaping the creative and strategic direction of client email and SMS campaigns. This role combines AI-assisted copy refinement, content calendar planning, and retention strategy to deliver high-performing campaigns that align with each brand’s voice and goals.
How This Role Fits on the Team
You’ll work closely with the Lifecycle Marketing Manager, who leads the client relationship, sets the overall retention strategy, and manages the creative team.
Your role as the Email Content Strategist is to:
- Lead the planning and creative direction of client email/SMS content.
- Maintain brand voice and strategic alignment across campaigns and flows.
- Review and refine AI-generated content to maximize engagement and performance.
You own the creative strategy and content quality — the analyst brings it to life through precise execution and performance improvements.
Key Responsibilities

- Edit AI-assisted copy (generated via our internal tool) to ensure every campaign is polished, on-brand, and performance-ready.
- Optimize AI prompts to improve first-draft quality and reduce revision time.
Calendar & Project Management
- Participate in client calls and Slack communication to align on campaign priorities, updating calendars and tasks accordingly.
- Plan 30-day email and SMS content calendars aligned with launches, promotions, and flows.
- Guide the creative team to execute campaigns and flows up to standard and on time.
- Review creative assets (copy & design) for clarity, consistency, and strategic alignment.
Retention Strategy & Optimization
- Use Klaviyo and CRM tools to define segmentation, flow logic, and campaign triggers.
- Identify trends, performance gaps, and testing opportunities to boost engagement and retention.
