• Working closely with the Hub, track and analyse campaign performance, implement continuous improvement initiatives, and optimise brand investments to improve value. Share local insights and takeaways with regional leadership and NoEs to improve overall brand efficiency.
• Support the team in addressing sophisticated challenges and developing resolutions across multiple partners. Exercise good judgment and make independent decisions when appropriate, raising issues where more sophisticated resolutions are required.
• Watch the latest marketing, communication and product trends across all channels, using this expertise to provide guidance, coaching, and continuous improvement of campaign strategies and product portfolio relevance.
• Responsible for implementing marketing activities that meet or exceed critical metrics, including marketing return on investment, campaign performance, and fulfilment of Hub SLAs. Drive year-on-year increases in Hub utilisation, content re-use, and campaign efficiency.
