• Partner with Marketing leadership to translate annual priorities, campaigns, launches, and major initiatives into coordinated work plans.
• Develop scalable processes for project intake, briefing, approvals, timelines, handoffs, launch readiness, status reporting, and post-project learning.
• Provide leadership with visibility into workload, capacity, deadlines, risks, budgets, vendor activity, and overall marketing performance.
• Identify bottlenecks, duplicated efforts, and inefficient processes and lead improvements and automation that increase speed, quality, and team capacity.
• Oversee shared marketing workflow systems, calendars, dashboards, templates, documentation, and reporting.
• Establish effective vendor management processes, including scopes, approvals, utilization, invoices, payments, renewals, and vendor performance.
• Support annual marketing planning, budget tracking, resource planning, and vendor spend management.
• Develop meaningful metrics around turnaround time, workload, backlog, vendor utilization, delivery quality, and alignment with business priorities.

Skills for Success:

• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business, Operations, Communications, or a related field preferred; equivalent relevant experience may be considered.
• 7+ years of progressive experience in marketing operations, project management, marketing management, shared services, or a related field.
• Demonstrated leadership experience with the ability to set priorities, balance team capacity, coach employees, and drive accountability.
• Strong project management, process improvement, organizational, and change-management skills.
• Experience managing marketing workflows, budgets, vendors or agencies, campaign operations, resource planning, and reporting.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to use data to evaluate workload, service levels, budgets, performance, and operational opportunities.
• Experience with project management, workflow, CRM, marketing automation, CMS, analytics, or reporting platforms such as Asana, Monday.com, Smartsheet, Workfront, Trello, Jira, or similar tools.
• Experience within a centralized or shared services marketing organization is preferred.
• PMP, Agile, Lean, or other process-improvement experience is a plus, as is experience within real estate, property management, retail, hospitality, or another multi-location organization.
