• Partner with the Business Intelligence team to uncover trends, seasonality, and performance patterns - translating insights into actionable recommendations that guide leadership decision-making.
• Ensure data integrity and accuracy for forecasting and pipeline management, supporting broader data hygiene efforts and enabling insight-driven decisions.
• Proactively support Business Development and Client Service leaders by anticipating business needs and independently advancing initiatives aligned with key NAMER commercial priorities.
• Develop and implement best practices across the Agency team that align with company goals, ensuring consistent execution across NAMER.

• Exceptional communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate complex ideas clearly and persuasively.
• Highly organized, with the ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.

• Proven ability to build strong relationships with VP-level leaders and above, and drive consensus with multiple stakeholders across complex issues.
