- Ensure modelling inputs and outputs are robust by reviewing, shaping, and challenging data, assumptions and results to support credible decision making.
- Define and refine media frameworks and channel structures to ensure modelling reflects marketing activity and enables meaningful, decision-ready insights.
- Convert modelling outputs into commercially compelling ROI stories, including optimisation scenarios and budget allocation recommendations.
- Coordinate cross-functional teams across a globally distributed delivery model, ensuring alignment between data, modelling, and client priorities throughout delivery.
Ideal skills and experience
