• - Drive prioritization, scope management, and operational tradeoff decisions that protect execution quality, team focus, and delivery timelines across Ninja, Shark Home, and Shark Beauty.
• - Build repeatable process where none exists — briefing templates, review cycles, approval paths — so output scales without sacrificing quality.
• - Identify where volume is being lost to inefficiency, and fix it.
• Plan Resources, Capacity, and Budget
• - Lead resource, capacity, and budget planning aligned to quarterly and annual social go-to-market priorities across all three brands.
• - Own team utilization tracking, production forecasting, and freelancer/agency planning.
