  • Sets the organization's measurement standard for broadcast and digital reach, and delivers a monthly content investment scorecard that guides decisions on what to make, keep, renew and fund;
  • Provides data and analysis to the CEO on content acquisitions and new initiatives, and gives Development title-level evidence of reach and impact for major gift and foundation proposals;
  • Other relevant duties, as assigned.
