Who we are

Hi, I’m Mel, Head of Account Management at Mention Me and I’m hiring! Before I tell you more about the role, here's a little bit about Mention Me and what we do:

Becoming a Mentioneer means you’ll be joining our Customer Advocacy Intelligence® movement, which is changing the world of marketing.

Our data-driven Advocacy Intelligence Platform equips brands to drive growth through their fans by encouraging and rewarding personal recommendations.

There’s a good chance you’ve already come across us while online shopping from Puma, Michael Kors, ASOS, Ray Ban, or any other of the 500+ brands we work with.

We’ve delivered more than 5.5m referrals totalling over $2bn in revenue for our clients.

Now, our mission to make all brands think advocacy-first is stepping up a gear, and you might be just who we need to help us.

The Role

As a Renewals Manager, you will be responsible for managing the entire renewals process for all existing business accounts, ensuring high renewal rates and customer satisfaction. You will work closely with our Customer Success, Account Management and Finance teams to execute renewal strategies, manage customer relationships, as well as develop and implement processes to ensure we minimise churn and increase our retention rates as well as identify opportunities for account growth.
