CRM Personalization Lead

Position: Personalization Lead, Salesforce Marketing Cloud

ABOUT Slate

At Slate, we've got one job: building a vehicle you'll fall in love with, right here in the USA. We believe that car buyers—not car companies—should call the shots. We like looking at a road, not a screen. We don't like paying for stuff we don't need.
We like picking out the stuff we do need. We think dings are badges, not blemishes. But we know not everyone likes what we like. So, we built you a Slate: you make it yours.

What we are looking for:

Develop and implement Salesforce Marketing Cloud Personalization (MCP) strategies and campaigns. Configure and validate campaigns on the website and apps through MCP.
