leading the delivery, integration, and operationalization of data-driven and
analytics-enabled marketing capabilities. This role ensures that data platforms, pipelines,
models, and AI-enabled use cases are delivered in a compliant, scalable, and
production-ready manner-bridging Data Science innovation with enterprise execution.
The TPM partners closely with Marketing Data Science, Marketing stakeholders, and
Enterprise Technology teams to translate analytic concepts into actionable capabilities
that enable targeting, measurement, experimentation, and member-centric decisioning at
scale.
Key Responsibilities
Data & Analytics Program Delivery
Lead cross-functional delivery of marketing data and analytics initiatives (e.g., data
integrations, analytic enablement, model activation, measurement frameworks).
Manage multiple concurrent data-centric workstreams, dependencies, risks, and
delivery milestones.
Ensure analytics initiatives move from discovery or POC into governed, repeatable
production solutions.
Data Science & Technical Partnership
Serve as the primary operational partner to Marketing Data Science teams,
supporting intake, prioritization, and delivery of analytics use cases.
Coordinate with ETS, data engineering, architecture, security, and risk teams to
support data ingestion, access, and platform readiness.
Translate analytic requirements (models, features, signals, measurement needs)
into executable delivery plans.
Governance, Risk & Compliance Enablement
Support enterprise governance processes related to analytics and data use,
including:
o Data Transfer Authorizations (DTAs)
o Security and privacy reviews
o Architecture and operational readiness approvals
Ensure analytics solutions align to enterprise data standards, risk tolerance, and
regulatory expectations.
Measurement, Experimentation & Activation Support
Enable activation of analytic outputs into marketing platforms (e.g., targeting,
segmentation, propensity-based journeys).
Support design and delivery of test-and-learn frameworks, measurement plans, and
performance reporting.
Partner with analytics teams to ensure results are traceable, explainable, and
actionable by Marketing stakeholders.
Stakeholder Communication & Influence
Provide clear, executive-ready updates on data and analytics initiatives, including
risks, trade-offs, and decision points.
Act as a translator between technical data teams and non-technical business
partners.
Ways of Working & Continuous Improvement
Contribute to standardized intake, prioritization, and delivery models for
analytics-driven work within Marketing.
Identify opportunities to improve data delivery speed, clarity, and scalability through
better processes, tooling, and cross-team alignment.
Required Qualifications
Extensive experience delivering complex, cross-functional technical or data-driven
programs.
Strong understanding of analytics, data platforms, and how models and insights are
operationalized.
Proven ability to work effectively with data scientists, engineers, and business
partners.
Advanced program management skills including planning, dependency
management, and risk mitigation.
Strong communication skills across technical and executive audiences.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience supporting marketing analytics, decision science, or data-informed
personalization.
Familiarity with enterprise data governance, security, and privacy considerations.
Experience enabling AI or advanced analytics use cases within regulated
environments.
PMP, CSM, or equivalent experience and training.
How this differs (subtly) from a generic TPM
Emphasis on analytics enablement over feature delivery
Focus on data pipelines, models, measurement, and activation
Strong partnership with Marketing Data Science rather than pure MarTech platform
ownership
Heavy interaction with risk, security, and data governance for analytic use cases
