Full Job Description
About the Role

This role sits at the center of our Global Ads & Promotions platform, focused on building scalable monetization systems and driving high-impact business outcomes. You will operate as a single-threaded owner across critical initiatives, working cross-functionally to define strategy, shape product direction, and drive execution. This role will focus on:
  • Own the performance of our SMB Ads business across International markets - define the strategy, execute the strategy, problem-solve, and track against revenue goals.
  • Partner with Sales and Account Management teams to build goals, understand areas and opportunities for improvement, own end-to-end development and execution of improved processes, and build a path to revenue attainment.
  • Establish standardized frameworks across pricing, formats, inventory, and user experience.
  • Drive cross-functional alignment with other market stakeholders across shared app surfaces and competing goals.
  • Work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Data Science and other tech teams to release new features & products, monitor product adoption, and unblock obstacles and technical challenges.
  • Devise the appropriate go-to-market playbooks. Enable teams through market-relevant training, product releases, sales collateral, reporting, and benchmarking.
You're excited about this opportunity because you will...
  • Own: You are not afraid to single-handedly own a revenue target, and build plans to hit business goals.
  • Strategize. Define how we win, build data-driven market plans across categories and geographies, set clear targets, and align roadmaps and resourcing to drive measurable selection growth.
  • Build: You like going from 0-1, and 1-10. You want to get in early, identify trends, and leverage insights to scale.
  • Operate: You want to roll up your sleeves, get to the lowest level of detail, and scale.
  • Collaborate: You value cross-functional partnerships, and will thrive at working across Operations, Product, Sales, Engineering, and more to deliver results.
  • Enable: You love equipping other teams with what they need to be successful. You are able to take feedback and put it into action.
We're excited about you because...
  • You have ~4-6 years of experience in a role in strategy & operations, business planning, consulting, program management, or product marketing (advertising experience a plus).
  • You're entrepreneurial. You have experience standing up new initiatives, pressure-testing them in the market, and translating early traction into scalable playbooks or systems. You have a bias for action and are able to build things from the ground up.
  • You have a proven track record of leading projects, working cross-functionally, and delivering on goals in a complex, fast-moving environment. As such you thrive while wearing multiple hats and working across people, projects and workstreams.
  • You're a data-driven problem solver who is fluent in Excel/Google Sheets (SQL experience is a plus).
  • You're eager to dive into difficult problems without a playbook, diagnose root causes, and devise an action plan.
