Manage stakeholder inputs, review cycles, and version control; coordinate fact-checking and approvals with Marketing, PR, Legal, HR, Product, and Finance as needed.
- Marketing coordination for CEO moments: Coordinate CEO involvement in Marketing moments such as product launches and campaign tentpoles, ensuring sequencing, channel alignment, and readiness in partnership with Campaign Delivery and Integrated Marketing teams.

- PR + Comms collaboration on CEO opportunities: Partner with PR to evaluate and activate opportunities where CEO participation advances business priorities (media, podcasts, speaking). Support with briefing materials, messaging, and prep documents, and ensure alignment to broader narrative and reputational considerations.
