You offer excellent verbal and written communication skills in English and the ability to explain complex technology in an engaging, accessible way. You bring strong writing, editing, and proofreading skills, paired with a creative and innovative mindset that enables you to generate fresh ideas while maintaining consistency with brand and Business Line positioning.

You have a solution-oriented, self-starter mentality and a passion for both strategic and analytical thinking. Your background includes knowledge of digital marketing and marketing automation tools such as Salesforce and Pardot, as well as the business acumen needed to develop a deep understanding of the portfolio and market. You are collaborative, a strong networker, and a supportive team player. Basic familiarity with Adobe Creative Suite is considered an advantage.
