Maintain and enhance churn prediction models, audience selection logic, and early warning indicators to enable proactive outreach and re‑engagement strategies. Translate complex analyses into clear, actionable insights and recommendations, presenting findings to leadership and marketing partners, and supporting implementation of data‑driven strategies. Ensure data quality, integrity, and consistency across analyses and reporting; partner with data and technology teams to support multi‑channel data integration across CRM, CDP (e.g., Salesforce Data 360), digital banking, and marketing platforms. Manage analytics intake and delivery, scoping requests, prioritizing work, and balancing multiple initiatives while providing timely insights. Continuously identify opportunities to improve analytics tools, processes, and methodologies, including leveraging AI‑enabled analytics, CDP capabilities, and automation within Salesforce ecosystems to accelerate insight generation and decision‑making. Provide ad‑hoc analytics, insights, and reporting support to the marketing team, proactively addressing emerging questions and analytical needs. Qualifications and Education Requirements
