For over two decades, BrainPOP has been trusted by educators and parents worldwide as a source of engaging and impactful learning experiences for all kids. With a presence in over two-thirds of U.S. districts through school and district subscriptions and an estimated annual reach of 25 million students, BrainPOP is empowering kids to take agency over their learning and excel in and out of the classroom.

The company was acquired in 2022 by KIRKBI, the family-owned holding and investment company of the LEGO brand, marking a significant milestone as their first acquisition in the digital learning realm. We are thrilled to continue making learning fun and accessible with the strategic guidance and support of KIRKBI.

You will use tools including Marketo, Blueshift, Litmus, Looker, Salesforce, and Google Analytics to perform job functions and track success.

Your contributions will make an impact by driving marketing qualified leads, increasing product engagement, and lowering churn; email KPIs, including open rates, click-through rates, unsubscribe rates, MQL acquisition, and monthly active users, will measure this.

In this role, you will:

Own the execution and optimization of our email channel, from campaign-building within the ESP to QA, testing, and deployment
Partner with creative and product marketing teams to design campaigns that highlight BrainPOP’s brand identity and support company goals
Strategically segment lists based on in-product behaviors and performance from past campaigns
Execute ongoing testing regimen (subject lines, layout, format, frequency, etc.) to continuously improve email performance focused on user engagement
Proactively develop strategies to improve our email programs
Lead in the development of weekly, monthly, and ad hoc reporting on email performance
Serve as a channel expert for cross-functional teams, including Sales, Data Engineering, and Customer Success
Stay current with email best practices, trends, and regulations

You are:

Proficient with HTML and CSS with a good understanding of email functionality across devices and providers
A skilled multi-tasker who is quick to learn new programs and tools
Excited to contribute to BrainPOP’s mission of empowering kids to shape the world around them and within them
A self-starter with a great work ethic who loves testing and has strong attention to detail
Not afraid to roll up your sleeves; “Not my job” is not in your vernacular
A team player with the time management and organizational skills to also work independently

On Your Resume:

2-4 years of email marketing experience
Experience with hard-coding emails
Experience working with an email service provider (preferably Marketo and Salesforce)
Experience with email marketing tools (e.g., Litmus)
