What are the responsibilities and job description for the Staff, Customer Marketing Segment Strategy Leader – Defector position at Intuit?
Overview
Intuit's TurboTax business serves millions of DIY customers every season — but a meaningful share of that base is at risk of defecting to Assisted competitors each year. This role owns the strategy and execution to stop that leakage: identifying which customers are most likely to defect, understanding why, and converting them into TurboTax Assisted offerings before they leave
You'll sit at the center of a high-visibility, cross-functional mission team with a clear mandate and the runway to drive it. This is a rare opportunity to own a strategic growth lever end-to-end — from segmentation and modeling through outbound execution and exec-level reporting — with direct accountability for one of TurboTax's most important retention and conversion opportunities.
Responsibilities
Cross-Functional Program Leadership
Intuit provides a competitive compensation package with a strong pay for performance rewards approach.
