• Partner with the Director of Marketing Operations and Director of Donor Experience on site UX so the donor journey stays clear and seamless, and work alongside agency partners on larger builds.
• Work with the Director of Performance Marketing to track and analyze site traffic analytics, page performance metrics, and user behavior to make decisions on the UX and design of the website and other creative.
