• Strong digital marketing expertise including social media, SEO and SEM, email marketing, and analytics platforms.
• Proven ability to analyze campaign data, interpret audience and market insights, and make confident, data-driven decisions.
• Excellent leadership and communication skills, with experience managing cross-functional relationships and influencing at multiple levels of the organization.
• Experience managing marketing budgets and delivering programs on time and within scope in a fast-paced environment.
• Builder and standard-setter — create clarity, raise the bar for your team, and hold yourself accountable for outcomes.
• Life sciences, healthcare, or B2B media experience a plus.
• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Business, or a related field; MBA preferred.
