  • Drive special communications projects with significant cross-functional collaboration (e.g., family communications projects with school teams and the family outreach team)
  • Manage Zeta's website and partner with the Director of Marketing to ensure a world-class website experience at all times
  • Leverage an entrepreneurial mindset and data-driven approach to continuously test, learn, and iterate Zeta's communications to achieve improved results over time
  • Wear multiple hats as a part of a lean startup-up team, supporting the work of others on the team and taking on new projects and tasks as needed
