Role Overview This role is responsible for what's next. You take on the strategic, often ambiguous work that expands Norton beyond its current state: major new product launches, new category or geography entry, white space opportunity development, brand transformation, and big campaigns that require both creative vision and commercial discipline. You are a big thinker and a challenger. You can spot where Norton should go, model why it makes sense, build the case to get there, and pitch it convincingly to leadership. You work at the intersection of brand strategy, integrated marketing, and business thinking: identifying opportunities, doing the analysis, and driving the cross-functional work to bring them to market. Success means Norton's next chapter is built with ambition and financial discipline, new businesses are launched well, the brand gets stronger over time, and leadership always has the insight and storytelling they need to make bold decisions. What You'll Do: Identifying Opportunities and Building the Case • Identify, size, and prioritize new opportunities, including new categories, geographies, audience segments, and product expansions, by pulling together market data, consumer insight, competitive analysis, and internal performance signals. • Build rigorous business cases: model the opportunity across multiple data sources, including market sizing, competitive benchmarks, unit economics, and channel potential, and construct a clear investment thesis. • Pitch leadership and cross-functional partners for incremental funding and organizational commitment. Build presentations that are clear, data-grounded, and persuasive. • Determine how to enter a new category, region, or white space: define the market entry approach, sequencing, investment model, and success criteria before resources are committed. • Bring a challenger mindset. Actively question conventional assumptions about Norton's growth, look for disruptive opportunities, and bring perspective from adjacent categories and competitive landscapes. • GTM for business case Go-to-Market for Major Launches and Initiatives • Own integrated marketing strategy and execution for Norton's biggest launches and strategic growth initiatives, from positioning and messaging through activation and optimization. • Define target audiences, messaging frameworks, and launch tiers. Build the investment rationale and resource plan in partnership with senior leadership. • Lead go-to-market planning across direct and indirect channels, working closely with Acquisition, PR, Social, Web, and Media teams to align on goals, investment, and launch ti
