• A demonstrated ability to connect with people at all levels in a business setting
• Previous experience with advanced measurement like MMM, MTA, or Incrementality Testing.
• The ability to clearly and effectively articulate complicated and technical elements and results of advertising programs.
• A general understanding of other key components of advertising programs: measurement and attribution, creative/influencer, affiliate marketing, the relationship between organic and paid, and more.
• Experience building multi-channel media plans inclusive of both digital and traditional media buys.
• Experience working with and managing media partners and vendors.
• Experience leveraging analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Adobe, or other site analytics platforms.
