• Partner with Business Intelligence (BI) teams to build comprehensive dashboards that track the holistic consumer/professional journey.
• Integrate diverse data sets—including Syndicated Data (Nielsen), Retailer POS Data, and 1st Party Data—to provide a 360‑degree view of business performance.
• Drive the "Measurement Framework" for SSA, setting KPIs for acquisition costs, lifetime value (LTV), and engagement health.

3. CCX & PCX Activation

• Develop data‑driven segmentation strategies to deliver personalized content to consumers and dental professionals at scale.
• Architect the "Professional-to-Consumer" referral loop, ensuring that professional recommendations (PCX) are captured and nurtured within the consumer ecosystem (CCX).
• Oversee the functional requirements for new digital tools, ensuring they solve specific SSA market challenges while remaining globally compliant.

4. Strategic Business Partnering

• Translate complex data insights into actionable commercial recommendations for the SSA Leadership Team.
• Facilitate "Test-and-Learn" agendas to optimize media spend and CRM effectiveness.
• Manage regional agency relationships specifically focused on data management and marketing automation.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Education: Honours degree in Marketing, Business, Information Technology, or a highly analytical field (e.g., Statistics, Data Science).
• Experience: Minimum 8 years of experience in Digital Marketing, CRM, or Business Intelligence within the FMCG or Healthcare sector.
  • Proven track record in managing complex data ecosystems and marketing technology (MarTech) stacks.
  • Experience working across diverse African markets is highly advantageous.
