Description

Amazon’s XCM (Cross Channel & Cross Category Marketing) organization is looking for a Marketing Manager to lead audience and media strategy, planning, and execution in the US and CA across Prime mass marketing campaigns. We are looking for a candidate with a passion for building exceptional customer experiences to create and drive media and audience segmentation strategy across investments.

You will lead cross-channel media strategy for priority audiences and define the investment levels across channels based on business objectives, audience indices, channel best practices, measurement data and reach & frequency guardrails. You will bring a data-driven mindset to determining the optimal channel mix for audiences and business strategies, managing both media agencies and internal partners, to achieve our goals. You will work closely with campaign managers, marketing stakeholders, audience analysts, measurement partners, data science leaders, category leaders, creative and content teams and our internal media team to establish and implement media best practices, develop and target audience segments, create rigorous analytical processes, and produce cost-effective campaigns.

The ideal candidate is a tenured marketer who is highly collaborative, but self-driven with strong bias for action and an ability to deliver on ambiguous projects in a highly matrixed environment.

This role requires an entrepreneur mentality to help develop and enhance audience strategy, processes and products, as well as analytic processes and innovations for advanced audience analytics. You will be resourceful and find creative solutions to complex technical and business challenges.
