• Deliver a seamless, differentiated, and delightful experience for members across digital and physical touchpoints.
• Past experience will include developing and executing one or more comprehensive go-to-market (GTM) strategies, scaling digital products or platforms into standalone business offerings, including pricing, positioning, and partnership models.
• Demonstrated success in P&L ownership and ROI-driven decision-making.
• Experience with mobile app development and product management.
