Pinterest's Canada business is a scaled, high-potential market spanning Emerging, CPG, and Retail, with more than 60 employees across 10+ sales pods and $150M+ in L4Q revenue. Canada has strong momentum and meaningful upside, but also requires renewed market leadership, sharper operating rigor, and a more unified country strategy. This Managing Director role is Pinterest's senior sales leader in Canada, accountable for revenue growth, organizational productivity, customer relationships, and the health of the Canada sales organization. This role requires a leader who can operate at both the market and organizational level: setting a clear commercial strategy, building trusted relationships with major Canadian advertisers and agencies, and leading through a period of transformation as Emerging, CPG, and Retail come together under one country model.
