Matthea:""At NS, you get the space to discover commercial opportunities and turn your ideas into experiments that make an impact. With creativity, customer data, and CRM, you help travelers choose the train more often and realize smart growth."

What you'll do

How do we ensure that travelers choose the train more often? Which insights from customer behavior offer commercial opportunities? And how do you quickly translate such an opportunity into an experiment that delivers visible results?

As Growth Marketeer CRM, you do not wait for a briefing. You identify opportunities yourself, ask critical questions, and develop ideas that allow us to better serve travelers and realize commercial growth. CRM is an important tool in this regard: you know how to use customer data, personalization, and CRM technology to actually bring ideas to execution.

You take ownership from the first insight to the measurable result. You dare to experiment, learn from results, and translate insights into the next step. In doing so, you work closely with colleagues from marketing, data, content, and product development.

You:

  • Identifies commercial growth opportunities from customer behavior, data, market developments, and content.
  • Translates opportunities into creative propositions, customer journeys, and concrete experiments.
  • Formulates hypotheses, conducts A/B testing, and adjusts based on results.
  • Uses CRM, personalization, and customer data to realize, validate, and scale ideas.
  • Works full-funnel on activation, engagement, retention, and loyalty.
  • Takes ownership and brings initiatives from idea to execution.
  • Connects colleagues and stakeholders and brings them along with new ideas.
  • Analyzes results, shares lessons, and uses insights to continuously improve.
  • Participates approximately once per quarter in the availability service for customer communication, so that important communication to our travelers is also well supported outside regular working hours.

These are the job requirements

You are curious about human behavior, think commercially, and see opportunities where others primarily see processes. You combine creativity with a result-oriented approach and know how to actually get new ideas off the ground.

  • Affinity with customer behavior, data, content, and personalization.
  • Creativity and the ability to think beyond existing campaigns and processes.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for an entrepreneurial growth marketer who brings growth and CRM together. Someone who discovers commercial opportunities themselves, develops creative ideas, and has sufficient CRM knowledge to actually realize these ideas.

Have you previously developed a new customer journey or proposition, tackled a retention challenge, or tested a growth hypothesis? And can you show how your initiative led to different customer behavior or commercial results? Then we would love to meet you.

At NS, you get the space to use your entrepreneurship, creativity, and CRM expertise for millions of travelers.

These are the employment conditions

Working at NS means that you can make *the* difference in the dynamic world of sustainable mobility. You help keep the Netherlands accessible, for everyone. At NS, you get a lot of freedom. The possibilities to develop yourself are great. We promise you that no day is the same. And as one of the most beautiful employers in the Netherlands, we have even more to offer.
