Job description

About the Team
Our Advertising & Promotions team operates at the intersection of e-commerce and advertising, surfacing and monetizing relevant content that benefits our core audiences. We provide digital solutions to help advertisers reach DoorDash audiences.
This role will be responsible for the operations and performance of some of our newest and fastest growing Ads & Promos offerings across our International markets.
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.
