• Run campaign retrospectives with local teams and central stakeholders, documenting what worked and what to optimize next time
• Own a centralized "campaign brain": a database of best practices, creatives, promos, and learnings

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work side by side with local country marketeers and GMs to align on campaign execution, local adaptations, and performance results
• Collaborate with the Brand, Content, and Creative teams to ensure campaigns are on-brand and creatively engaging
• Partner with Product, Growth, and Customer Experience to align campaign messaging and product readiness
