Support content-restriction updates driven by federal, state, local, lease, or partner-requested changes; communicate updates to relevant teams; and assist with annual competitor-restriction reviews.
Reporting, Insights & Performance Monitoring Build quarterly reports for Business Development featuring unique content activations, partner utilization highlights, public-benefit programming wins, and creative ideas implemented each quarter. Partner with the Sales team on impression pulls and campaign value for performance visibility. Identify patterns, opportunities, and recommendations for improving partner engagement and network programming.
Quality Assurance & Problem Solving Troubleshoot content-related issues on the kiosks, partnering with internal teams to resolve challenges quickly. Maintain high attention to detail across specs, file types, scheduling, and kiosk useage performance. Apply a strategic lens to all content decisions to ensure they support partner goals, city priorities, and OBM/IKE brand standards.
