The ideal candidate combines strong analytical skills with sharp business judgment, communicates clearly across functions, and thrives in a fast-paced QSR environment.

What You'll Do:

Media Effectiveness & Experimentation

• Own the integration and interpretation of Marketing Mix Modeling (MMM), attribution, and incrementality studies to produce a coherent view of channel and campaign ROI.
• Design, execute, and analyze causal experiments — including geo holdout tests, matched-market designs, and conversion lift studies — to isolate the incremental impact of media campaigns.
• Translate measurement findings into clear, decision-oriented recommendations on where to invest, scale, or reallocate spend.

Audience Management & Activation

• Own the end-to-end audience strategy, from segment design and build to activation across paid media, CRM, and owned channels.
• Partner with Media and CRM teams to develop suppression, lookalike, and high-value audience strategies that improve targeting precision and reduce wasted spend.
• Drive feature development and continuous improvement of audience capabilities, working closely with MarTech and engineering partners.

CRM & Loyalty Analytics

• Lead analytics, reporting, and strategy for CRM campaigns across email, push, and in-app messaging.
• Develop measurement frameworks for the Popeyes loyalty program, including enrollment, engagement, retention, frequency, and incremental sales impact.
• Deliver actionable insights on customer behavior, lifecycle, churn, and lifetime value to inform marketing strategy and audience targeting.
• Design and analyze A/B and multivariate tests to optimize messaging, offers, timing, and targeting across CRM and loyalty programs.

Customer Data Platform (Hightouch) Ownership

• Serve as the business owner of the Hightouch CDP, overseeing audience build, identity resolution, data syncs, and downstream activations.
• Partner with product and engineering teams to ensure the underlying customer data models, data quality, and attribute logic support reliable, scalable activation.
• Participate in the development of the CDP roadmap and use case pipeline in partnership with Media, CRM, and Loyalty stakeholders, prioritizing initiatives that drive measurable business outcomes.
• Maintain clear governance, documentation, and metric definitions across audiences and activations.

What You'll Need To Succeed:

• 7+ years of analytics experience, preferably in digital marketing, media, CRM, or loyalty.
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business Analytics, Data Science, Statistics, Engineering, Marketing, or a related field.
• Hands-on experience with causal measurement methods (geo experimentation, incrementality testing, A/B testing) and familiarity with MMM and attribution.
• Working knowledge of CDPs (Hightouch preferred), CRM platforms, and major digital media platforms (Google, Meta, programmatic DSPs).
• Proficiency in SQL, Snowflake, and data visualization tools (Tableau); experience with Python or R is a plus.
• Strong collaboration skills with experience working across marketing, media, CRM, MarTech, and engineering functions.
• Industry experience in retail, food service, or QSR is preferred.
• Exceptional communication and storytelling skills; ability to tailor messages for diverse audiences, including senior leadership.
