Our team pushes Google to scale at key points that refine our products and infrastructure by executing efficiently, bringing solid business sense and sound judgment, and working effectively across organizational lines.

Our roles often include components of strategy (e.g. analyzing and understanding new trends in the industry, building business plans), operations (e.g. running the cadence of organizations, connecting the operating lines between our functions), and communications. Our team partners with senior leadership to run important functions that cross-cut our existing organizations and deliver high impact projects. We help Engineers, PMs, UX, and all of our other functions to build amazing products that delight our users, and then get those products into their hands.

As a key member of the Business Management team, this role involves leading cross-functional programs to launch new partners, and driving high priority projects with established partners to achieve jointly aligned objectives and key results.

You will be team-oriented with excellent communication skills, attention to detail and thought leadership in developing solutions.
