• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with the Head of Organic and Head of Lifecycle to ensure a seamless customer journey and with General Managers to optimize their conversion funnels.
• Team Leadership: Build, mentor, and scale a high-performing team of performance marketers, fostering a culture of accountability, technical excellence, and continuous learning.
