Data & Measurement Data-Driven:

• Monitor activation performance and diagnose key drivers, including pacing, spend, CPC, CPA, ROAS, ACoS, sales, new-to-brand, share-of-voice, and other relevant client KPIs.

• Develop clear performance narratives that connect results, hypotheses, actions, and expected outcomes.

Owner Mindset:

• Take accountability for day-to-day activation performance, delivery quality, and client readiness across your assigned scope.
• Prioritize effectively across clients, platforms, activations, and internal initiatives.
• Proactively identify and resolve activation, process, and workflow issues before they become larger client concerns.
• Provide informal guidance to Commerce Media Specialists on activation execution, QA, reporting, optimization, and established best practices.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by experimenting with new strategies, tools, and workflows.

Professional & Technical Qualifications:

• 3–5+ years of experience in commerce media, retail media, paid media, e-commerce, or a related performance-marketing role.
