We are looking for a world-class, strategic and results-focused individual who brings a track record of success in transforming the way brands connect with customers across media. As the Intl.

• Collaborate closely with creative teams, brand strategy, CRM, social, performance marketing, and media agency partners to ensure seamless activation of full-funnel, integrated campaigns
• Build, lead, and develop a team of highly-capable media buyers, planners, and connections strategists, while contributing to our authentic, inclusive, and performance-driven culture
• Utilize data-driven methodology, analysis, and measurement to improve effectiveness and efficiency of our performance channels
• Evolve our measurement frameworks for brand building media and longer term impact channels to ensure effective ROI/ROAS in partnership with our Analytics and Data Science teams
• Lead and guide translation of brand goals to the brand strategy and activation teams, and media partners
• Own campaign management and reporting, including in-depth analytics of ROI and Brand health metrics
• Ensure consumer and cultural insight are embedded in all planning, and lead cross-channel orchestration that balances short- and long-term brand objectives

You are:

• A cross-channel media strategist with a strong understanding of how media, messaging, and moments intersect to drive brand and business outcomes

• An excellent communicator, able to interact with Marketing Leadership and C-suite to explain the strategy and commercial impact of your budget
• Proactive and find enjoyment in generating fresh ideas, while also possessing the capability to articulate the rationale behind them
