About Us:
Grow was born to tackle a critical challenge: making mental health care more effective and accessible for everyone. Since launching in 2020, 15 million sessions have started on Grow, and we’ve barely scratched the surface. We do it through a three-sided marketplace that empowers providers, augments insurance payors, and serves patients. Every solution we build reveals ten more waiting to be delivered, and that’s just what gets us going. We’ve backed that ambition with more than $328M in funding, including our Series D at a $3B valuation from Sequoia Capital, Transformation Capital, TCV, SignalFire, Menlo Ventures, Goldman Sachs Alternatives, and others.
At Grow, the work you do can literally change someone’s life. Your work here doesn’t stay on a screen; it impacts whether someone can find, afford, and access quality care. That ambition sets us apart, and offers you an endless runway to impact one of the world’s most urgent issues. We don’t have passenger seats here. Everyone is driving something that matters.
This work deserves real commitment. So if you thrive on meeting problems head on, untangling serious complexity, and working at pace with the sharpest yet kindest people around, you’ve come to the right place.
About the Role
We are looking for a Director of Lifecycle & Retention to lead the delivery of an excellent customer experience across our multi-sided marketplace. In this role, you’ll own retention and lifecycle marketing - accountable for both strategy and execution. You will develop learning agendas, partner on advanced measurement approaches, and ensure that every initiative delivers clear, measurable impact and business growth through excellent experiences.
You will work closely with Product, Engineering, Customer service, Finance, and Creative to build strategies with alignment, accelerate performance outcomes, and bring the right message to the right customer at the right time. You will also oversee our lifecycle team and lead cross-functional initiatives that strengthen our approach to engagement, cohort health, and long-term retention.
The ideal candidate is a seasoned lifecycle and retention leader who is deeply customer obsessed, with strong analytical instincts and a bias for action, fluency across CRM and lifecycle tooling, and a track record of turning insights into scaled, measurable business growth. You are equally versed in how to design marketing programs and in how to influence product decisions through how deeply you learn about customer behavior. You bring structure to complexity and know how to guide teams toward rigor, clarity, and meaningful performance outcomes.
What You Will Be Doing

Develop the strategy and roadmap for retention & lifecycle marketing across our customer journeys, spanning onboarding to long term loyalty loops.

Create and manage learning agendas and experiment frameworks that validate performance and inform prioritization

Build and own retention measurement and data in partnership with Data and Finance, including cohort analysis, LTV modeling, churn prediction, and attribution mapping

Partner with Product, Creative, Data, and Finance teams to set shared objectives, align on learning agendas, and drive accountability against measurable business growth
•
Evaluate customer-level and cohort-level insights to guide optimization, product decisions, and resource investment - and ultimately drive improved customer outcomes
•
Lead cross-functional reviews, planning cycles, and post-mortems to ensure the organization has clear visibility into results and is operating strategically
•
Develop scalable systems, documentation, and workflows that support transparency, efficiency, and improved results
•
Stay current with lifecycle trends, measurement standards, and platform capabilities to identify new opportunities for engagement and efficiency
This role is based in our New York, NY hub, where we require an in-office presence three days per week.
You Will Be a Good Fit If You Have

•
A proven track record of building and scaling lifecycle programs across multiple audiences that drive measurable business outcomes

A genuine obsession with the customer and a habit of grounding every decision in participant behavior and needs
•
A strategic and operational mindset, with the ability to set long-term direction while executing near-term objectives

Use of AI Tools: We use certain AI and automated tools to support recruitment. These tools help our team review applications, organize interviews, detect potential application integrity issues, and maintain interview records; they do not make final hiring decisions.
Application Review: Ashby’s AI-Assisted Application Review helps review application materials against role-specific criteria and may flag potential fraud or integrity issues for recruiter review. All advancement decisions are made by our human recruiting team after independent review. See Ashby’s AI Bias Audit Report.
Interview Recording: We use BrightHire to record interviews, supporting note-taking and consistency across candidates. Learn more. Interviews are confidential; you may ask your interviewer to stop recording anytime, or opt out in advance. Choosing not to be recorded will not, by itself, affect your candidacy.

New York City: Where required, we’ll provide at least 10 business days’ notice before using an automated employment decision tool and explain how to request an alternative process. Maryland: We do not use facial recognition to create facial templates during interviews unless required notice and written consent are obtained.
