PROFILE:
Describe the situation or event related to the individual's or team's performance.
Each individual on the team exemplified leadership, collaboration, doing what it
takes, and marketing excellence. Meeting 1 to 3 times a week, the team worked
collaboratively, bringing unique skillsets and professionalism to bear to deliver the
campaigns on time and on budget. They facilitated the creation of hundreds of
pieces of high quality content, working seamlessly with external partners and
agencies, completing multiple rounds of creative reviews and approvals with key
stakeholders, and optimizing campaigns in market to exceed benchmarks. Testing
and learning, and applying learning throughout the execution of the campaigns
resulted in a team that became stronger and more agile throughout the year. The
campaigns represented significant complexity with execution across several new

agile, and adept Marketing Operations team with the ability to take on and manage
complex integrated digital marketing campaigns that will benefit the enterprise's
future marketing efforts across B2C and B2B markets.
