• Organize and run project meetings, including kick-offs, weekly status updates, and debriefs, with clear agendas, notes, and follow-ups.
• Track deliverables and progress using project management tools; manage timelines, review stages, and content libraries for team use.
• Support the planning and version control of communication materials through editorial calendars or centralized content tracking systems to ensure structure and visibility.
• Monitor project performance and communication metrics (ie. open rates, engagement, platform utilization); analyze results and share insights to drive continuous improvement.
• Identify opportunities to streamline communications processes, enhance clarity and impact, and innovate delivery methods to strengthen dealer engagement.
• Apply communication best practices to improve audience understanding and reinforce key messages through clear and consistent delivery.
• Act as a strategic partner to the client, proposing solutions that drive program objectives and foster long-term success.
