Lead, Energy Marketing Operations, Global

Role Overview

The Energy Brand team is the engine for provocation within Nike Inc. We’re tasked with denting culture and pushing boundaries beyond what’s known or expected across all sports. We’re storytellers, strategic thinkers, and brand builders. To land the best work for Nike and our consumer, the Energy Brand Planning and Operations team is the foundation to Brand’s success.

What You Will Do

Lead seasonal marketing milestones, kickoffs, cross-functional integrations, and decision-making forums that move work forward. Design, implement, and continuously improve execution and operating processes to increase clarity, efficiency, and accountability.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This is a highly influential individual-contributor role for a structured yet flexible, proactive and direct, collaborative operator who can create clarity across complex, matrixed teams. You will drive accountability, simplify ambiguity, and keep marketing execution moving in a fast-paced, non-linear environment.

Requirements

• At least 6 years of experience in marketing operations, project management, strategy, or related roles within a global, matrixed organization.
• Proven ability to build and iterate marketing processes, operating models, and tools.
• Proactive, confident communicator who can influence without authority and operate effectively with senior leaders.
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving progress through change.
• Strong understanding of seasonal marketing workflows, go‐to‐market planning, and consumer‐led brand strategy.
• Highly organized, systems‐oriented thinker with strong project and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to synthesize complex information into clear narratives, plans, and recommendations.
• Proficiency with planning and collaboration tools (e.g., Airtable, Smartsheet, Box, Tableau or similar).
• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field; will accept any suitable combination of education, experience, and training

Benefits

• 4/1 hybrid schedule – Mondays – Thursdays are in the office and it’s optional if you’d like to work Fridays from the Nike campus office or your home office.
