CRM MANAGERCan you look at a player base and instantly see where the value is hiding?Where the first deposit journey is leaking.Where offers are too generic.Where bonus spend is doing too much heavy lifting.Where lifecycle momentum is fading too early.Where retention logic is leaving revenue on the table.Where the right trigger, message, offer or journey could change the outcome.And not just see it - know how to fix it.Tsogo Sun Digital is looking for a CRM Manager to help shape the future of player lifecycle, retention, promotions and loyalty across our sports betting and iGaming business.This is a role for someone who understands that CRM is not a send calendar. It is not a reporting dashboard. It is not a volume game.At its best, CRM is one of the sharpest commercial levers in the business. It drives activation. It protects margin. It improves retention quality. It makes promotional spend work harder. It lifts player value. It turns data, timing and judgement into real commercial outcomes.That is the level we are hiring for.At Tsogo Sun Digital, you will join a fast-growing digital business operating in one of the most dynamic categories in market. You will get the pace, complexity and opportunity of a scaling digital operation, backed by the strength, reach and legacy of one of South Africas most established gaming and entertainment groups.That combination matters.It means you are not joining a business that is standing still.And you are not joining one that has to build credibility from scratch.You get the energy and opportunity of a business pushing forward, with the backing, footprint and real-world customer ecosystem that opens the door to something bigger - including longer-term omnichannel CRM opportunities across digital, loyalty, venue touchpoints and broader customer experience.We are looking for someone who can lead both the thinking and the doing. Someone who can sharpen lifecycle strategy, improve promotional efficiency, strengthen automation, bring more intelligence into segmentation and testing, and still stay close enough to execution to ensure the CRM engine performs properly every day across email, SMS, push, onsite messaging, promotions, bonus campaigns, tactical bursts and always-on journeys.
