Although this role is mobile‑specific, other groups will expect you to be a source of best practice and expertise for marketing programs, and may call on your advice and input to help realize the potential of their businesses. You will rapidly become the “go‑to” resource for guidance on how to manage and maximize our Samsung Members community and will need to act with confidence and strong leadership.
