What you’ll be doing…

As the Integrated Marketing Senior Manager overseeing Marketing Transformation & Strategy, you will shape how Marketing operates, makes decisions, and delivers business value. Reporting to the Associate Director of Operations within the Integrated Marketing team, you will serve as a strategic advisor and transformation leader, solving complex business challenges and translating insights into actionable strategies and measurable outcomes.

Combining strategic problem-solving, marketing acumen, and executive storytelling, you will leverage AI, automation, and data to modernize workflows, improve decision-making, and build scalable capabilities across the organization.

Strategic Transformation & Vision

Executive Storytelling & Decision Support: Translate complex challenges into compelling executive presentations, strategic roadmaps, and business cases that drive leadership alignment and informed decisions.

Strategic Planning & Prioritization: Diagnose problems, challenge assumptions, prioritize high-value opportunities, and recommend resource allocation strategies.

Future-State Operating Models: Redesign marketing workflows, governance, and collaboration to eliminate friction, improve efficiency, and accelerate speed to market.

Strategic Advisory: Anticipate industry trends and identify opportunities to evolve marketing capabilities and ways of working.

AI Enablement, Analytics & Business Impact

AI-Enabled Transformation: Identify, test, and embed enterprise-approved AI, automation, and digital capabilities into workflows to improve productivity, quality, and decision-making.

Innovation & Adoption: Develop scalable solutions, reusable tools, and playbooks that enable responsible adoption and measurable improvements.

Performance Measurement & Value Realization: Define KPIs, analyze business data, develop performance readouts, and evaluate business cases to measure efficiency, productivity, resource optimization, and business impact.

Cross-Functional Leadership: Translate strategic objectives into practical execution, aligning Marketing, Creative, Media, Analytics, Technology, and business partners.

Change Enablement: Establish governance, change management frameworks, and playbooks that drive sustainable adoption without unnecessary complexity.

What we’re looking for…

A strategic thinker and hands-on change agent who thrives in ambiguity, combines analytical rigor with creativity, and independently turns complex challenges into actionable recommendations and measurable results. You challenge conventional thinking, influence senior leaders, and take ownership from initial insight through execution.

You’ll need to have:

• Six or more years of relevant experience required, demonstrated through one or a combination of work and/or military experience, or specialized training.

• Experience in process redesign, workflow optimization, governance, or operating model transformation.
• Practical AI and digital fluency, with the ability to identify business applications that improve productivity and operational effectiveness.
• Strong analytical skills, including KPI development, data interpretation, performance measurement, and translating insights into recommendations.
• Demonstrated ability to lead complex initiatives, influence stakeholders, and deliver measurable business outcomes.
