Cross-Functional Partnership:

• Partnering with Marketing, who owns marketplace advertising and retail media, on one integrated plan for the brand and the channel.
• Working with Supply Chain, Sales Operations and Finance so supply, order management and reporting line up with the channel plan.
• Supporting the VP, Sales with account-level input and sizing when new marketplace opportunities are evaluated.

Requirements:

• The successful candidate will bring ownership, commercial judgment and a hands‑on approach to CRNA. This person will have grown marketplace accounts in consumer products and will be comfortable working the detail of the digital shelf while keeping an eye on the P&L.

• Experience in consumer durables, home or household categories is preferred.
