Position Summary...

As Director, Marketing Planning and Strategy – Embedded eCommerce Partner (Omnichannel & Member Experience), you’ll sit inside Sam’s Club eCommerce as Marketing’s strategic partner—connecting campaigns to the actual member experience and translating performance dashboards into decisions that support sales.
You’ll help Marketing understand what’s driving eCom outcomes (traffic, conversion, adoption, digital penetration), and help eCom leverage Marketing to sharpen priorities, storytelling, and go-to-market plans across Curbside, Delivery, D2H, Express Delivery, Scan & Go, and the App. This is a high-impact connector role: you create clarity and momentum without becoming a bottleneck.

What you'll do...

In your first 6–12 months, you’ll deliver outcomes like:

• Build the “Marketing supports eCom” blueprint: define how Marketing best drives eCommerce growth (and when it shouldn’t), create clear decision flows, and establish a rhythm for shared planning, performance readouts, and action.
• Connect campaigns to the experience: ensure every major initiative ladders into a real on-site/app/in-club journey—so messaging, offer, and UX work together to improve conversion, adoption, and member satisfaction.
• Drive digital penetration growth: influence strategies that increase members shopping both online and in club, and create cross-experience pathways (e.g., App → Scan & Go → Curbside/D2H) that build frequency and loyalty.
• Own performance interpretation and proactive pivots: read dashboards, spot leading indicators, diagnose “why” (creative, offer, traffic quality, onsite friction), and mobilize the right owners quickly to adjust plans.
• Translate product releases into growth moments: stay fluent in eCom capability updates (feature releases, enhancements like order amendments, app/site improvements), and turn them into clear member value stories, launch plans, and adoption strategies.
• Create a unified, executive-ready narrative: communicate business health, growth drivers, and tradeoffs in a way that aligns Marketing leadership, eCom leadership, and cross-functional teams.
• Run a 6+ month GTM pipeline and playbooks: build launch readiness with positioning, messaging, KPIs, and roles so features hit the market with clarity and consistency.
• Lead a small, high-leverage team: manage one direct report (team of two)—setting priorities, coaching for impact, and ensuring the team is focused on the work that moves the business.
• Partner tightly with Channel Activation and Marketing Analytics: connect media and channel performance to eCom outcomes, ensure shared measurement definitions, and keep execution owners moving fast with the right insights.

What You’ll Bring You’ll be a strong fit if you bring:

• Marketing planning/strategy leadership in eCommerce/omnichannel (10+ years)—with a track record of supporting sales through better experiences, smarter prioritization, and clear GTM.
• A “connect the dots” mindset: you naturally ask, “How does marketing support the eCom business?” and “How are we connecting campaigns to the experience?”—then you build the plan to make it real.
• Analytics fluency + action orientation: you can read dashboards, identify root causes, and push timely pivots without waiting for perfect information.
• Product/release awareness: you understand how digital capabilities roll out and how to translate release details into member value, messaging, and adoption.
• Strong leadership judgment: you’re confident enough to not support everything—you prioritize what matters, challenge assumptions, and create alignment without authority.
• Cross-functional influence skills: you’ve partnered effectively with eCom business teams, Channel Activation, and Marketing Analytics to turn performance into coordinated action.
• Clear storytelling and executive communication: you can turn complex performance into a simple narrative with implications, decisions, and next steps.
