• Build quantitative models to support strategic decisions, including CAC/LTV analyses, subscriber and revenue scenarios, investment cases, and pricing elasticity models that connect marketing activity to long-term subscriber economics.
• Partner with Data and Research on marketing measurement and incrementality, translating marketing mix modeling, experimentation, attribution, and consumer research into actionable recommendations and helping prioritize the marketing experimentation roadmap.
• Connect content and marketing performance, partnering with Content Strategy to understand how investment around specific content, franchises, talent, and programming contributes to subscriber acquisition, engagement, retention, and customer value.
• Own marketing performance reporting and strategic analysis, providing leadership with a clear view of performance, efficiency, trends, and opportunities and leading campaign and initiative post-mortems.
• Improve marketing operations and ways of working, identifying opportunities to streamline planning, reporting, decision-making, and execution while building scalable processes and operating rhythms across pricing, promotions, measurement, and other cross-functional marketing initiatives.

• Familiarity with marketing measurement approaches including incrementality testing, marketing mix modeling, attribution, experimentation, and campaign measurement.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize quantitative analysis, research, and business context into clear, executive-ready recommendations.
