  • Partner with Digital Product, Performance Marketing, and Technology teams to optimize data capture, consent, and enrichment.
  • Lead the evolution of customer identity resolution and CDP capabilities (e.g., Amperity).
  • Champion privacy-forward, future-ready data practices.

Analytics, Insights & Measurement

  • Define CRM and loyalty success metrics, including CLV, retention, engagement, and loyalty contribution.
  • Translate customer data into actionable insights that inform strategy across marketing and retail.
  • Partner with Analytics teams to build dashboards, forecasting models, and measurement frameworks.
  • Foster a culture of test-and-learn and continuous optimization.

  • Act as a key thought partner to senior leadership on customer strategy and growth.
