• Experience working with large product assortments and high-volume digital assets
• Ability to articulate a clear POV on DAM's role relative to creative production tools, marketing workflows, and digital delivery platforms

• Strong change management skills; Able to help brands and cross-functional teams adopt a new platform and new ways of working
• Strong implementation experience; Able to partner with architects, vendor, and SIs on configuration decisions, workflow definition, migration planning, rollout, and adoption; Long term, able to translate user journeys and business needs into detailed platform requirements and configuration decisions as we optimize platform after launch
• Comfortable working with creative, marketing, merchandising, eCommerce, and digital asset teams; Exposure to upstream creative workflows preferred as we may move into that area post launch
