Own the martech stack: analytics (GA4), tag management (GTM), CRM/marketing automation in Salesforce, call tracking, review/listings management, and attribution.

Build dashboards and reporting that tie digital spend and activity to inquiries, scheduled evaluations, and enrolled families.

Ensure data flows cleanly between web, CRM, and downstream systems, with privacy and HIPAA considerations built in.

Ensure strict compliance of all digital marketing activities with national and state security and privacy regulations, including HIPAA, CCPA/CPRA, and other applicable state privacy laws.

Partner with Legal, Compliance, and IT Security on privacy reviews of new tools, pixels, and campaigns; maintain HIPAA-aware tracking and measurement practices.

Manage and develop the Social Media & Brand Specialist responsible for social media content, brand stewardship, and branding collateral, with junior-level execution skills on Meta and Google Ads.

Responsible to hire, promote, coach, develop, performance manage, and terminate teammates under its purview.

Set the digital marketing roadmap and budget; report performance to marketing and executive leadership.

Partner with content, brand, clinical operations, and growth teams to support new center launches and service lines.
