Marketing Campaign Manager
As a leading eCommerce grocery retailer, Peapod has unique insight into the behavior of customers. We believe that by using data wisely, we can engage our consumers in a more timely, relevant and consistent way. One of the solutions which will help us reach that goal is the Data Management Platform (DMP). The DMP will help us consolidate audience data in a single place and make it actionable in real-time. The primary role of the Campaign Manager is to make our marketing campaigns more efficient and effective while ensuring careful use of our valuable data (i.e. maintaining robust PII).
The Campaign Manager will be responsible for realizing the full potential of the DMP. He/she works together with the Marketing, Analytics, Peapod Interactive and Merchandising teams to identify key audiences, engagement strategies, measurements, and develop insights. Ultimately, success will be measured by our ability to acquire and retain customers through online marketing channels (e.g. email, display, paid social). In addition to these traditional marketing objectives, there is an opportunity to use Peapod’s data to build audiences on behalf of CPG partners and execute co-marketing programs to drive additional traffic to peapod.com.
The key contribution of the role is to create better, more relevant connections and engagement between the Peapod Brand, our CPG partners and consumers.
