You will maintain working knowledge of applicable government regulations and competitive category understanding. In close partnership with Subject Matter Experts and the director, you'll also manage the activation of the owned brand portfolio, which includes supporting the creation of briefs for various capabilities, such as complete packaging briefs for each Owned Brand.
