About the job

The Business Strategy and Operations organization provides business critical insights using analytics, ensures cross functional alignment of goals and execution, and helps teams drive strategic partnerships and new initiatives forward. We stay focused on aligning the highest-level company priorities with effective day-to-day operations, and help evolve early stage ideas into future-growth initiatives.

In this role, you will serve as a core strategic thought partner to APAC Large Customer Sales (LCS) senior leadership, shaping the commercial direction and long-term Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy for the business.

APAC Central Operations is a team that unlocks significant business for the region, and you will be at the center of it. The pace is fast, the stakes are high and the problems are rarely tidy. You will distill a complex issue into a crisp leadership narrative, and build an enablement playbook or untangle an escalation with partners across the region.

We are instrumental in setting go-to-market strategy, and ensuring flawless execution and operations against the strategy. We have teams embedded in each of the major Ads business areas as well as global teams that work across the business areas. Team members are analytical and strategic, with a pragmatic sense of how to get things done.

• Shape metrics governance by defining the KPIs, dashboards and cadences that show leaders where to act.
