A skilled facilitator and collaborator, you know how to encourage teamwork and cross-functional collaboration to arrive at a strong marketing plan that is built upon the expertise of channel and media partners, marketing leaders, content strategists and creative teams. As a seasoned marketer, you understand the importance of building marketing goals based on business and revenue objectives and know how to translate those goals into innovative campaign strategies that elicit action and change perceptions. You possess a unique blend of creativity and analytical acumen and know how to develop full funnel marketing programs that build the brand, encourage consideration and drive demand. You can think strategically (generating bold and innovative marketing strategies that drive growth) while understanding how to execute at the tactical level (to ensure we are recommending campaigns that can be executed on time and on budget.) You're comfortable solving sticky marketing challenges, thinking differently, testing new ideas, measuring results and applying learnings to future campaigns.
