• Support the creation of strong Sephora Retail Media Network go-to-market plans and solutions in a compelling, positive, and on-brand way.
• Build strong relationships and support collaboration across cross-functional teams (e.g. Product, IT, Merchants, Brand Marketing) to drive alignment on roadmap needs, feature definition, and business requirements.
• Support creation of vision, strategy, and requirements documents for new capabilities. Utilize available studies (market research, internal) and competitive analysis to identify customer needs.
• Use data analysis to address complex and ambiguous problems that often involve multiple stakeholder teams and span across departments.
• Establish an operational framework to manage communication and workflow across stakeholders and enable timely decision-making.
• Help define and socialize the holistic retail media network product strategy and approach across onsite and offsite channels.
• Provide coaching and guidance to junior team members.
