Loyalty & Engagement Lead at MSF – Doctors Without Borders, co-designed a donor programme contributing to €1.9M fundraising targets.
What I'm looking for
At MSF – Doctors Without Borders, I co-designed and built MSF Portugal’s Loyalty & Engagement programme from the ground up, strengthening donor retention, engagement and lifetime value. In its first two years, the programme contributed to exceeding €1M and €1.9M fundraising targets.
I designed retention and value-growth programmes, including an Upgrade programme with 30.3% conversion among contacted donors and a 59.75% average gift uplift. I also shaped multi-channel onboarding and nurture journeys that achieved a 44.74% open rate, with MSF Belgium adapting the digital onboarding journey.
Before MSF, I built the marketing function at Twoosk - Yelco Group, a B2B SaaS marketplace, and led brand positioning and go-to-market strategy. Earlier work at Gore & Associates (Gore-Tex), Abercrombie & Fitch and in design studios grounded my approach in the connection between brand experience and commercial execution.
