Document hypotheses, results, and learnings, and translate them into clear, actionable spend and channel recommendations.

Build and maintain Salesforce performance dashboards, analyze conversion funnel drop‑off, and prepare quarterly attribution data to support Board‑level presentations.

Previous experience in platform management, ad buys on Google, Meta, LinkedIn and programmatic ads platforms such as Stackadapt. Strong Salesforce skills, including performance dashboards, funnel analysis, attribution modelling and pipeline reporting; experience with Data 360 is an asset.

Familiarity with Marketing Cloud or similar platforms, working knowledge of Clay or similar data enrichment tools, and proficiency with Monday.com or similar project management tools. A clear communicator who can turn complex data into plain‑language recommendations that teams can act on quickly. Influence without authority.
