  • Collaborate with Paid Media and Email leads to build effective, data-informed Go-to-Market calendars that drive long-term, profitable growth in traffic, conversion, revenue, and high value customers.
  • Partnership & Process Leadership:
  • Manage third-party vendors (e.g., marketing database provider, merge-purge provider, printer) to ensure seamless execution of print campaigns.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to standardize and improve marketing planning, forecasting, and reporting processes.
  • Technology & Analytics:
  • Leverage tools such as Excel, Tableau, SQL, and/or R to independently access, analyze, and summarize marketing and financial data.
  • Contribute to the development of automated reporting frameworks that meet the needs of various business stakeholders.

Qualifications:

  • Technical System: Strong technical fluency in data analysis and reporting tools (Excel, Tableau, SQL/R).
  • Proven track record of translating data insights into actionable marketing plans and forecasts.
  • Demonstrated ability to work cross-functionally and influence stakeholders at all levels.
  • Passion for lifestyle brands and a collaborative, solutions-oriented approach
  • Curious, collaborative, and comfortable operating in ambiguity with a solutions-oriented mindset.
