The Sr. Manager of Marketing Analytics & Optimization will develop the tracking and learning platform that enables us to answer three fundamental questions: 

• Is our marketing and customer engagement model working in the market? If so, what components of it are working best and for what customer segments?

• If not, what should we change in our approach?

• How do we optimize our marketing portfolio to achieve business goals?

This role will likely have one or more direct reports. This role will report to the Director of Marketing Analytics & Optimization, who in turn reports to the Chief Marketing & Communications Officer.
