• Partner with Martech to assess and optimize the experimentation stack (e.g., Optimizely, GA4), ensuring we have the technical capability to deploy complex personalization and multivariate tests at scale.
• Partner closely with the Director of Marketing Strategy & Analysis to validate that testing priorities address the highest-value business risks.
• Collaborate deeply with Paid Media leadership to ensure landing page strategies align with media buying objectives.
• Act as the strategic bridge between Marketing and Product.
• Directly manage the CRO Strategy Leads (Sr. Managers) and Web Production/Ops team.
• Oversee the velocity and quality of the testing pipeline.
• Accountable for key top-of-funnel conversion metrics (Session-to-Lead, Lead-to-Enroll).
