• Establish clear goals and KPIs, consistently measure performance, adjust strategies as needed to achieve business objectives and proactively flag any risks or opportunities as it relates to campaign performance.
• Manage marketing budgets across tactics, channels, and agency resources with a disciplined, ROI-focused approach
• Own relationships with PR agencies and strategic partners to build a strong, localized presence within each district
• Develop and present executive-ready marketing updates, reports, and recommendations for senior-level stakeholders

WHAT YOU’LL BRING:
