Job Description
⭐ Who we are
Lodgify is a fast-growing scale-up company leading the vacation rental industry. Backed by $30M in funding, our platform empowers property owners and managers worldwide to efficiently manage and grow their business through technology.
Headquartered in sunny Barcelona, we’re now a team of 380+ people representing over 60 nationalities, united by a passion for transforming the future of short-term rentals.
⭐ Role Overview
We are looking for a Director of Retention & Monetization reporting directly to the Chief Growth Officer.
You will lead the strategic direction for our Activation and CRM squads, while directly building and managing the Retention & Monetization Squad from the ground up. This is a unique “Player-Coach” hybrid: you are a people leader setting the standard for your teams, but you are also an individual contributor, architecting and shipping our monetization experimentation roadmap.
Our goal is to build a Retention Engine that thinks for itself. You aren’t just sending emails; you are building the infrastructure that identifies at-risk signals, triggers autonomous interventions, and scales pricing experiments at 10x the current industry velocity.
⭐ How will you make an impact?
Architect a “Systems-First” Retention Model: Move Lodgify from reactive saves to proactive, behavioral interventions. You will define the data signals that matter and build the infrastructure (HubSpot, Braze, or equivalent) to trigger event-based actions, not just time-based sequences.
Own the Monetization Roadmap (Hands-on): You will personally design, run, and analyze pricing and packaging experiments. You aren’t overseeing this from a distance; you are in the data, building the hypotheses, and reporting commercial read-outs directly to the CGO and CFO.
Drive AI-Native Execution: You reach for AI first. Whether it’s building a custom churn-prediction agent, automating segmentation, or using LLMs to personalize re-engagement at scale, you will lead the GTM organization’s AI transformation from within your function.
Bridge the Data Gap: Partner with Engineering and Data to instrument product events that turn “user behavior” into “actionable growth signals.” You’ll ensure our stack has zero “coordination tax” and maximum experimentation speed.
Scale the Growth DNA: Elevate the Activation and CRM leads (Anabel and Alba) by setting a world-class standard for experimentation quality, statistical literacy, and delivery velocity.
⭐ What makes you a great fit?
The Experience: 8–12 years in Growth, Lifecycle, or Retention within B2B SaaS. You’ve built a lifecycle system from scratch, not just managed an existing one.
The “Builder” Mindset: Your default mode is to build a prototype, not a slide deck. You get frustrated by slow feedback loops and use AI tools (n8n, Zapier, Claude, etc.) to break them.
Hard Requirement: You haven’t just “used” AI; you have shipped an AI-native automation or workflow that is currently in production.
Monetization Fluency: You understand value metrics, tier design, and willingness-to-pay research. You can talk NRR and LTV with a CFO, and “API architecture” with a CTO.
Technical Stack: Expertise in CRM orchestration (HubSpot/Braze), product analytics (Amplitude/Mixpanel), and SQL. You pull your own data; you don’t wait for a ticket.
Statistical Rigor: You understand ICE prioritization, cohort analysis, and statistical significance. You know when a result is a signal and when it’s just noise.
⭐ The First 6 Months
Month 1 — Audit & Ship: Complete a full CRM debt audit and ship your first monetization experiment. Deliver one tangible AI automation into the hands of your team.
Month 3 — Compound: Live behavioral segmentation is active. Your first AI agent is in production. You’ve delivered a concrete recommendation on team structure and talent gaps to the CGO.
Month 6 — The Engine is Humming: Experimentation velocity has tripled. Retention, CRM, and Monetization are a single integrated system where signals in one automatically inform the others. NRR is measurably improving.
⭐ What makes this hard (and why it’s exciting)!
The Player-Coach Paradox: You must lead two squads while simultaneously acting as the IC lead for monetization. You aren’t just a manager; you are a builder.
High-Volume, Low-ACV: With ~1,000 new customers a month, you can’t “white glove” your way to retention. This is a systems and architecture problem that requires scale-thinking.
No Playbook: We are defining what an AI-native growth org looks like. You’ll be building the plane while flying it, often influencing cross-functional teams (Product/Data) without direct authority.
The Clock is Running: We are at a critical scaling inflection point. The decisions you make on pricing and retention in the next 12 months will define the company’s trajectory for the next 5 years.
Why you’ll love us:
You’ll be part of a growing, dynamic company with a truly international team. At Lodgify, we are full of contagious energy, hard work, and passion for what we do. We celebrate diversity and are proud to acknowledge a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and skills in our team; committed to creating a workplace where everyone is heard and feels a sense of belonging.
