- Evaluate, create, and evolve product offerings and packaging strategies across platforms, using inventory availability, demand, performance, and marketplace feedback to improve sell-through and unlock incremental revenue opportunities.
- Build and maintain dynamic forecasting and scenario models to project revenue, sell-through, inventory availability, and yield outcomes based on changing supply, demand, seasonality, and market conditions.
- Design and evolve scalable pricing frameworks, rate cards, and performance methodologies across multiple mediums, ensuring consistency while adapting to inventory trends, marketplace conditions, and commercial needs.
- Collaborate with partners across Sales, Planning, Ad Operations, Marketing, Finance, Product, and Data to evaluate pricing, inventory, and product strategies that support near-term objectives and long-term growth.
