• Cross-Functional & Agency Coordination: Act as the ultimate connector between internal marketing peers, XFN teams (Partnerships, PR, Legal), and our external agency partners. You will keep all stakeholders aligned, informed, and moving toward the same goals.
• Process Optimization & Budgeting: Proactively identify bottlenecks and streamline operational workflows. You will support the team with rigorous compliance regarding vendor management, tracking Statements of Work (SOWs), Purchase Orders (POs), and agency invoicing.
• Social Insights & Listening: Partner with analytics agencies to run proactive and reactive social listening. You will monitor brand health and audience sentiment, ensuring the team is always equipped with the latest cultural and performance insights.
