• Comfortable working with marketing metrics and performance data; able to explain results clearly to non-technical audiences
• Strong project management skills with experience managing multiple concurrent workstreams
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Highly organized and detail-oriented with a proactive, ownership-oriented mindset
• Ability to operate effectively in a cross-functional environment and build trust with both internal teams and external partners

• Partner closely with the Vendor Marketing Manager to stay current on performance benchmarks and program outcomes, ensuring you can speak confidently to results
• Set appropriate expectations with vendors around measurement timelines, KPIs, and what success looks like for each program
• Own the end-to-end project management process for vendor marketing programs — from commitment through delivery
