  • Oversee performance marketing agency to manage ongoing paid media spend. Develop hypotheses, design programs and optimize campaigns with an ongoing focus on improving customer acquisition metrics.

  • Track and report campaign performance on an ongoing basis—including the impact on platform metrics as well as brand health indicators such as awareness, consideration, preference, and perception.

  • Explore new channels and partnerships to unlock new audiences and distribution opportunities.

  • Own the ongoing marketing calendar – tracking internal and partner schedules to ensure coordinated promotions across all key moments.

  • Experience working within a global organization, with a demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional collaboration and influence teams without direct authority.

  • Experience collaborating with internal creative teams and external agencies to develop impactful creative campaigns.

  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to leverage consumer research, brand tracking, and campaign performance data to inform strategy.

  • Exceptional project management and organizational skills, with the ability to independently manage multiple initiatives, budgets, timelines, and stakeholders in a fast-paced environment.
