- Experience leading or mentoring marketers and coordinating cross-functional work
- Strategic and detail-oriented, with the judgment to prioritize across multiple concurrent campaigns
- Meticulous about compliance, privacy, and brand safety; experience with political or cause-related advertising is a strong plus
