• Balance brand-building and performance objectives within each channel, maintaining a clear view of how both contribute to CAC goals and overall growth targets.
• Act as the integrated planning coordinator across the paid marketing team, ensuring all paid initiatives are accounted for and aligned when launching new creatives, brand campaigns, or promotional moments.
