The Opportunity

• Strategic Vision & Roadmap: Define and execute a multi-year roadmap for Targeting and Recommendation products, aligning innovation with enterprise digital transformation goals and the product portfolio lifecycle.

• AI & Predictive Innovation: Partner with Data Science to integrate advanced ML and AI into the product core, "supercharging" predictive modeling and next-best-action (NBA) capabilities.

• Operational & Financial Stewardship: Optimize product budgets and resource allocation through ruthless prioritization, balancing high-ROI initiatives with long-term architectural health and technical feasibility.

• Cross-Functional Orchestration: Serve as a lead evangelist to senior stakeholders while collaborating with technical and field teams to ensure a unified "one-face-to-customer" omnichannel experience.

• User Excellence & Change Management: Drive product adoption by championing intuitive UX/UI design and partnering with learning teams to deliver comprehensive upskilling and change management programs.

• Performance & Market Intelligence: Establish rigorous OKRs to measure product impact on business decision-making while monitoring industry trends to maintain a competitive edge.

• People Leadership & Governance: Lead and develop a high-performing team in a culture of accountability and engagement, ensuring all product development adheres to strict legal, regulatory, and internal policies.

• Proven ability to lead the full product lifecycle for large-scale enterprise analytics platforms and exceptional communication skills with a track record of navigating complex matrixed environments, driving user adoption, and leading organizational change management for new tools.

• Deep technical proficiency in field effectiveness (targeting, call planning, sizing) and omnichannel analytics (paid/owned/earned media) to drive "next-best-action" strategies.
