Job Description

You’re the architect of the “aha!” moment, energized by the challenge of turning complex insights into high-impact marketing strategies that move the needle. You’re a professional dot-connector—naturally curious, digging deep into the “why,” and weaving together data, culture, and content to define what’s next. You don’t just interpret data; you own the narrative, translating numbers into a clear strategic roadmap that your partners are excited to follow. You communicate with a blend of clarity and conviction, and you know exactly how to tailor your message to resonate with any audience.

You thrive in the high-stakes, fast-moving gray space where others might see only ambiguity. You’re a proactive team player who manages multiple priorities with a sense of calm momentum, building productive relationships across every team you touch. You bring a "yes, and" mindset to every discussion, asking the thoughtful questions that push the work further and representing the strategy perspective with the confidence of a seasoned pro. Most importantly, you’re an entertainment obsessive, motivated by the unique opportunity to help audiences discover their next favorite obsession and drive the way the world connects with content on Peacock.
