The Director serves as the connective tissue between measurement and activation, helping Spectrum make smarter investment, creative, audience, and content decisions.

• Synthesize measurement workstreams such as Adobe, MMM, Lift Studies, CAPI diagnostics, platform reporting, and social listening into executive-ready business narratives.
• Translate performance data into prioritized recommendations instead of descriptive reporting.
• Identify emerging trends in audience behavior, creative effectiveness, platform performance, AI adoption, and consumer sentiment.
• Deliver executive-ready narratives that connect performance outcomes to business objectives and future investment decisions.

• Partner with Paid Media, Organic, Influencer, Community, Creative, and Analytics teams to convert insights into coordinated optimization plans.
• Develop decision frameworks for media investment, creative iteration, audience strategy, influencer selection, and content distribution.
• Track recommendations through execution and measure business impact and continuous improvement.
• Identify opportunities to scale high-performing content, creators, and audiences while refining underperforming tactics.

• Own integrated measurement frameworks, scorecards, and reporting standards across paid, owned, earned, influencer, creator, and community activity.
• Design and evaluate cross-channel testing programs to improve media, creative, and content effectiveness.
• Standardize taxonomy, governance, and KPI frameworks across agency partners.
• Partner with Analytics, Technology, and Automation teams to improve dashboarding, data quality, and actionable intelligence.

• Serve as the connective tissue between Media, Creative, Strategy, Analytics, Influencer, Community, and client stakeholders.
• Lead recurring optimization reviews, post-campaign debriefs, and executive business reviews focused on actions and accountability.
• Build reusable playbooks and best practices from testing and performance learnings.
• Champion continuous improvement by scaling successful approaches across the paid, owned, and earned ecosystem.

• Own Spectrum's Performance Intelligence function, ensuring every deliverable includes insights, implications, and recommended actions.
• Synthesize performance across paid, owned, earned, influencer, creator, 3rd party measurement, and social listening into a unified executive view.
• Lead optimization reviews that align Paid Media, Organic, Influencer, Community, Creative, and Analytics teams around measurable actions.
• Develop executive narratives connecting social performance to Spectrum business objectives and future investment decisions.
• Identify opportunities to scale winning creative, creators, audiences, and platform strategies across the ecosystem.
• Partner with data engineering and analytics teams to improve dashboards, automation, governance, and reporting standards.

• 10+ years leading social performance strategy, intelligence, measurement, and optimization across paid, owned, earned, influencer, and creator ecosystems.
• Experience synthesizing cross-channel data into strategic business recommendations.
• Background partnering across social paid, owned, earned, influencer, creative, and analytics teams.
• Executive-level storytelling and client leadership experience.

• Deep expertise across Meta, TikTok, Reddit, YouTube, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Snapchat, and Nextdoor.
• Strong understanding of MMM, Lift Studies, attribution, Adobe, first-party measurement, and social listening tools (i.e., Hootsuite/Sprout)
