• Develop and maintain communication playbooks and frameworks that drive clarity, consistency, and brand alignment across channels.
• Partner with Product Marketing, Client Experience, and Sales to tailor messaging strategies by audience and campaign objective, ensuring communications are clear, engaging, and impactful.
• Provide subject matter expertise and guidance to colleagues on email best practices, strengthening alignment and elevating institutional quality delivery for the organization.

3. Insights, Measurement & Continuous Improvement

• Partner with Analytics and Data teams to measure engagement metrics (open rates, click-throughs, conversions) and assess campaign effectiveness.
• Apply data-driven decision making, leveraging insights from A/B testing, behavioral data, and advisor feedback to continuously improve strategies.
• Stay current on email marketing best practices (CASL compliance, accessibility standards, deliverability optimization, personalization trends) and apply them to enhance the client experience.
• Monitor competitor activity and emerging technologies, proactively exploring innovative approaches to improve communications and advisor engagement.

Qualifications & Experience

• 2-4 years of experience in marketing communications, client engagement, or digital/email marketing, ideally within financial services or asset management.
