    • Champion the adoption of innovative technologies and data-driven approaches within the marketing strategy, collaborating with tech and product teams to leverage cutting-edge tools that enhance overall campaign effectiveness. Ensure a seamless user experience that aligns with the company's brand promise and marketing objectives
