The Email Global Center of Excellence (COE) sets email strategy and has teams of developers delivering enterprise-wide software tools enabling country-level email marketing execution. The Email Global COE is seeking a talented and experienced Product Manager to work on a new global initiative delivering a unique and highly customized email experience fed from multiple data points from across the email ecosystem.
