You run annual and quarterly planning, brief the media team, and keep all product assets and messaging accurate and fresh across markets. You make the day‑to‑day acquisition engine run, and you make it run better every quarter.

Bring learnings within and across channel creative to ensure constant improvement in acquisition performance.

Set objectives and creative strategies to share with internal agency for creative development and execution. Review creative and provide guidance for optimization, simplification and/or consistency as needed. Acquisition Strategy and Channel Leadership Own acquisition strategy for Norton's current product lines across paid, earned, and owned channels, connecting channel roles, funnel stages, and investment decisions into a coherent full‑funnel approach. Make strategic decisions on audience segmentation, channel mix, and promotional levers that drive demand and conversion. Identify performance gaps and proactively reallocate focus and investment to close them. Understand how messaging, offers, pricing, and creative affect acquisition and conversion, and partner with Brand and Product Marketing to make sure in‑market positioning is working. Monitor competitors and market dynamics to inform channel investment and differentiation decisions. Geographic Focus Develop and maintain acquisition strategies for each key geography, reflecting local market maturity, competitive dynamics, and demand patterns.

Pricing and Promotional Strategy Own the promotional and pricing strategy for acquisition across the current product portfolio, working closely with Product, Finance, and Revenue teams. Develop and test promotional frameworks, including pricing tiers, discount structures, and offer mechanics, to improve conversion and downstream customer value.

Run a regular cadence for reviewing and refreshing assets based on product updates, performance data, and competitive changes. Make sure product descriptions, feature messaging, and acquisition‑facing content are optimized, consistent and up to date across all geographies and channels. Identify, create and optimize key product assets – key visuals, video and static assets, messaging – and ensure shared with key marketing partners. Performance and Optimization Track cross‑channel funnel performance and keep a clear view of where acquisition is working, where it is not, and what to do about it. Work closely with media, conversion rate optimization, analytics, and retention teams to connect acquisition strategy to overall funnel health and long‑term customer value. Design and evaluate acquisition tests across channels, formats, and geographies and decide what to scale. Deliver regular performance updates to leadership that clearly signal risks, opportunities, and recommended actions. Use AI tools to improve both results and team efficiency. Team Leadership Manage and develop a team of 3-5 acquisition and go‑to‑market professionals across global and regional markets. Be a strong partner to Media, Brand, Product Marketing, Analytics, and Regional Marketing teams.
