• Experience in guiding multi-disciplinary and cross-functional marketing teams for campaign execution
• Strong analytical skills: advanced proficiency with spreadsheets and experience using analytics or BI tools (Looker, Tableau, etc.).
• A balance of strategic thinking and tactical execution—you know when to zoom out for the big picture and when to dive into the details.
• Analytical and curious by nature—you love digging into data, solving problems, and turning insights into actionable decisions.
• Clear and succinct written communication and comfort in presenting to executive audiences and cross-functional partners. Able to communicate complex work to both internal teams and external agencies.
• Thrive in a fast moving growth stage environment and comfortable operating with ambiguity
