• Translate customer insights into product, portfolio, positioning, and value‑proposition strategies.
• Support the development of strategic plans, annual marketing plans, product launch plans, business reviews, proposals, and recommendations.
• Convert marketing strategies into specific, measurable activities that support business goals and customer acquisition and retention.
• Develop target audience profiles and needs‑based customer segmentation using behavioral, attitudinal, and aspirational insights.
• Lead value‑proposition and positioning initiatives, incorporating customer beliefs, desired behaviors, clinical evidence, economic value, and other supporting proof points.
• Partner with commercial teams to identify target customers and prioritize market opportunities.
• Support evidence‑generation strategies by connecting clinical, usability, and economic evidence to customer needs and value propositions.
• Analyze market trends, competitive dynamics, and potential sources of business growth to recommend strategic areas of focus.
• Develop sales tools, communication plans, and channel strategies for various products, markets, and customer segments.
• Apply clinical and technical product knowledge to create compelling sales messages and clearly articulate customer value.
• Analyze sales and business data to identify performance trends, opportunities, risks, and areas for growth.
• Collaborate with Sales Education to develop product‑training strategies, materials, tools, and ongoing educational resources.
• Develop volume forecasts based on market conditions, sales activity, product trials, risks, and business assumptions.
• Support integrated business planning, product lifecycle management, and supply‑chain initiatives related to the overall portfolio strategy.
• Analyze market‑pricing data and support pricing strategies that align with brand positioning, customer value, and broader marketing objectives.
• Partner with Marketing Communications to define communication objectives and evaluate appropriate marketing channels and tools.
• Establish KPIs, milestones, and success criteria; conduct post‑launch analyses; and incorporate lessons learned into future plans.
• Analyze customer‑satisfaction data and develop consistent methods for tracking and reporting customer engagement and business performance.
• Accurately forecast resource needs, contribute to the budgeting process, and explain variances between planned and actual expenses.
• Support the development of project charters, capital expenditure requests, and business‑case financial models, as applicable.
• Collaborate across functions to build strong partnerships and accomplish business objectives.
• Deliver high‑quality results with energy, accountability, and a strong focus on business priorities.
• Provide guidance, coaching, or mentorship to other marketing team members as needed.
