The Role

The Senior Specialist, Marketing Planning (aka Marketing Product Owner), reports into the Manager, Marketing Planning (PlayNow & Sports), and is responsible for driving the retention & development strategies and objectives in alignment with the PlayNow marketing direction, outcomes, and strategic roadmap for all three jurisdictions (BC, MB & SK). In this role, you advocate for the needs of the players and business partners with the Agile marketing teams and ensure the team's solutions are aligned to the strategy and deliver to outcomes. You support the team by leading planning (breaking down the marketing roadmap into smaller components), prioritizing the backlog, and helping to remove roadblocks. You will often collaborate with other Enterprise Marketing team members or leadership as there is often cross-team opportunities and deliverables at play. As someone who is guiding the team to drive to key objectives, you are immersed in the data with your team members so that you are clear on what solutions are having the most impact to delivery and therefore will carry forward those learnings into future programs. This role is one of three that fall within the PlayNow focus area. There is also PlayNow Acquisition (iCasino & iLottery) and Sports Acquisition teams.

• You collaborate with other Marketing Planning Sr. Specialists and leadership to build and align on the appropriate coordination required between teams (as needed) to successfully lead your respective areas with clarity.
• You are the key point of contact for all work in flight within your portfolio between our business partners and marketing leadership.
• You manage, refine, prioritize the Retention & Development marketing backlog for your team, know what items to focus on and can share the "why" behind its impact and importance.
• You work in lockstep with the Agile leadership team made up of Agile Coach, Scrum Master and yourself to successfully lead your respective team.
• You forge meaningful relationships with a wide range of leaders and team members across the enterprise, and many external stakeholders like vendors, clients, and service providers.
• You will help continue to foster a culture of collaboration and live up to BCLC's values.

What will make you successful

• You have exceptional strategic marketing acumen.
• You are a creative and analytical problem solver - you can think creatively about the strategies you employ that will best deliver on the objectives you set out for the team.
• You are hyper-focused to delivering to marketing outcomes and know how to respond quickly when needed.
• You have a knack for leading and inspiring teams.
• You understand what it means to be a business partner within a wide and diverse network of internal & external leaders at all levels.
• You have a natural curiosity to understand the problem and its drivers before jumping to action.
• You are an excellent communicator who can succinctly synthesize the impact of your strategies and team solutions to all manner of stakeholders - product, operations, vendors and other marketers.
