About the job
Our team is a core part of the newly-formed Global Commercial Enablement (GCE) organization, which serves as the activation engine in GTM for the Global Business Organization (GBO). As the strategic and operational arm for global sales activation, we work to deliver the products to sellers and customers through compelling incentives, prioritized activities, and clear, effective processes.
As a Senior Associate on the Product Activation Operations team, you will be a key player in improving how our global sales teams go to market by translating product and inventory complexity from the Search or YouTube Ads businesses, into a set of sales-facing workflows, processes, tools, and collaterals. You will leverage your strong ads product and stakeholder management skills to operationalize the process. You will become an owner and expert of strategic initiatives that drive growth across our core activation levers for either the Search or YouTube key product areas, from product activation prioritization to the collateral, training, and tools our promoters use every day. Ultimately, your work will be instrumental in improving the experience of sellers as they execute our global product strategy.
The Go-to-Market Operations (GtM) team ensures Google's complex and ever-evolving Ads business runs smoothly. 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.
