• Act as the day-to-day coordination lead: Coordinate decisions, escalations and prioritisation across internal teams, external partners and delivery squads, balancing agreed objectives with practical delivery constraints.
• Champion user adoption and continuous improvement: Gather feedback from internal and agency users, identify pain points, improve reporting usability and ensure solutions are adopted consistently across teams and markets.
• Manage delivery governance: Maintain delivery cadence, sprint priorities, backlog hygiene, status reporting, risks and dependencies across the product lifecycle.
  
  Relevant product or solution ownership experience: Proven experience as a Product Owner, Business Solutions Owner, Business Analyst, Product Manager or similar, ideally within marketing operations, media, creative production, content supply chain, digital asset management or enterprise technology environments.
• Integrated marketing technology knowledge: Strong understanding of connected marketing technology ecosystems, ideally including workflow platforms such as Workfront, DAM platforms such as Adobe Experience Manager, and media management or planning/reporting tools such as MediaTool.
• Reporting, data and systems fluency: Experience defining dashboards, data flows, taxonomy, data quality standards, process maps or platform integrations across complex operational environments.
• Stakeholder management in complex organisations: Comfortable working across global brands, local markets, technology teams, media, content, procurement, agencies and commercial stakeholders, with the ability to align competing priorities.
• Agile or hybrid delivery experience: Confident managing backlogs, prioritisation frameworks, sprint planning, delivery cadence, risks, dependencies and issue resolution across the product lifecycle.
