Start your very own journey – with HolidayCheck!

At HolidayCheck, everything revolves around making vacations better – together. We’re not only enabling the best time of the year for our travelers, but also creating an inspiring work environment for our team in our modern offices in Munich or Bottighofen.

We live our company values every day: as #TeamHolidayCheck, we build trust, take ownership, and love what we do – all for the perfect holiday experience.

As (Senior) CRM Automation & Lifecycle Manager (all genders), you own the customer relationship across the entire lifecycle – from first inspiration to rebooking. You don’t think in one-off campaigns, but in intelligent journeys: who should be contacted, when, through which channel, with which message, and based on which data signals?

You connect strategy, data, technology, and content into one coherent system and make sure our CRM activities create measurable impact on journey performance, retention, rebooking, and Customer Lifetime Value.
