• Coordinate CRM campaign projects from intake through launch, organizing requirements, timelines, and handoffs while channel teams execute within the platform. 
• Gather and organize inputs, assets, and approvals needed to support CRM initiatives, ensuring work is launch‑ready and properly documented. 
• Partner with UX teams on CRM and lifecycle initiatives tied to research, testing, and learning objectives. 
• Partner with Talent Community teams to support employee engagement and internal CRM‑driven communications.

• Apply AI tools thoughtfully to speed up analysis, reporting, project intake, and documentation—while validating outputs for accuracy and quality. 
• Keep projects organized, well‑documented, and delivered on time across multiple concurrent initiatives.
