  • Drive database management and hygiene efforts to ensure clean, segmented and actionable customer data.
  • Stay current on digital marketing trends, evaluating and adopting innovative strategies to keep CRC ahead of industry standards.
  1. Brand Stewardship – Design & Creative Direction
  • Act as a brand guardian, ensuring consistency in visual identity, tone of voice and messaging across all channels.
  • Create and refine marketing collateral including presentations, brochures, newsletters, event graphics, social media creative and digital content that elevate the CRC brand.
  • Partner with internal teams to translate complex ideas into compelling, professional and on-brand creative deliverables.
