You will work cross-functionally with internal teams, including Media, Website, Digital, and Product Marketing, while partnering closely with the Data & Analytics team.
Key Responsibilities:
- Data Consolidation & Storytelling: Aggregate, validate, and reconcile performance data from multiple sources. Deliver a unified view of marketing activity and present insights that inform decision-making.

- Proficiency with data visualization tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) and analytics platforms (e.g., GA4, Adobe Analytics, AppsFlyer).
- Solid grasp of attribution models, A/B testing, and conversion tracking.

- Comfortable navigating ambiguity and multiple data sources, with a relentless drive for clarity and accuracy.
What Success Looks Like:
