  • Identify cross-channel optimization opportunities using CAC, LTV, Retention, and ROI
  • Set planning rhythms and post-mortems to feed insights into the next cycle

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end marketing budget process, to include planning, allocation, in-year reprioritization, and reporting, so every marketing leader and Finance partner works from a single, trusted view of spend across all pillars.
  • Analyze and recommend cross-channel investment optimizations using CAC, LTV, Retention, and ROI to inform the media mix approach.
  • Partner with marketing leadership and Finance to build annual and quarterly budget scenarios, translating business goals into funding recommendations and clearly laying out the tradeoffs behind them.
  • Assess and surface risk across the marketing plan by focusing on pacing, channel concentration, dependency, and forecast variance, and bring forward mitigation options before they become problems.
  • Build the operating cadence, encompassing planning cycles, budget reviews, cross-pillar syncs, and reporting rhythms so that every marketing channel and team is oriented around the same goals and priorities.
  • Serve as the analytical backbone for marketing leadership, turning performance and spend data into clear, defensible recommendations that inform investment decisions.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Finance, Data, and every marketing pillar, including Acquisition, Lifecycle, Brand, and Creative, to keep planning assumptions, KPIs, and definitions consistent across the org.
  • Lead post-mortems and forecasting reviews on major marketing investments, capturing lessons learned and feeding them back into the next planning cycle.
  • Build and maintain the tools, trackers, and reporting infrastructure that make marketing spend and performance visible to stakeholders at every level, from channel owners to executive leadership.

Requirements

  • 12+ years of experience in channel marketing analytics, strategic finance, FP&A, or marketing strategy and planning, ideally with exposure to a DTC or subscription business.
  • Deeply numbers-driven, comfortable building financial models, budget scenarios, and forecasts, and translating them into clear recommendations for non-financial stakeholders.
  • Experience partnering with Finance and cross-functional leaders on budget planning, allocation, and tradeoff decisions.
  • Ability to spot risk early in pacing, concentration, or forecast variance, and bring structured, credible recommendations to leadership.
  • Built or run planning cadences and operating rhythms that keep a multi-channel or multi-team organization aligned around shared goals.
  • Strong executive presence and ability to communicate complex tradeoffs simply and persuasively to senior stakeholders.
  • Comfortable being the person who asks does this add up, and bring structure to ambiguity.
  • Thrives in a fast-paced and ambiguous environment, curious and proactive self-starter, on the lookout for new opportunities and solutions.
  • Owner mindset, excellent problem-solving skills, ability to prioritize tasks with strong attention to detail.
  • Detail-oriented and proactive, thrives as a self-starter and excels in managing multiple projects simultaneously.

Preferred

  • You love dogs.

Benefits

  • Dog-friendly office in SoHo
  • Market-competitive compensation and equity packages
  • Comprehensive Healthcare, Dental, and Vision
  • Company supported mental health benefits
  • 12 week paid parental leave
  • Competitive 401k plan with company match
  • Flexible PTO
  • Discounted fresh food for your pup
  • Your pet interrupting video calls (and in-person meetings) is now a feature, not a bug
