  • Cross-Functional Alignment: Act as a critical partner to internal teams (e.g., Marketing, Brand, Merchandising) to align influencer strategies with key business moments, including new product drops and major promotional campaigns

  • Data-Driven Optimization: Analyze creator and affiliate performance data, proactively identifying trends and implementing data-driven strategies for continuous optimization and increased return on investment (ROI)
