About the Job

The YouTube Strategy team focuses on our highest priorities, solving complex, ambiguous problems that span early stage growth initiatives, investing in our largest product or business areas, making major operational or organizational changes, and assessing strategic rationale for YouTube external investment opportunities. Throughout, we provide analytics-based insights, ensure cross-functional alignment of goals and execution, help YouTube teams drive our most important strategic initiatives, and advise our senior leadership on the best path forward.

The YouTube Business Central Strategy and Operations Team is responsible for leading global, cross-functional, strategic initiatives to drive the growth and health of the YouTube creator and partner ecosystem. The core capabilities of the team include tactical and business operations, incentives design and business strategy and operations.

As a Go-To-Market program manager, you will work closely with the Global Go-to-market (GTM) Product Specialists and Regional Content and Product Partnerships teams. The role is cross-functional and requires a strong foundation in program management and planning led by data. You will lead key pilots for our go-to-market operating model and help design, build, experiment and iterate quickly with small cross-functional working groups.

You will be a communicator and a problem solver with a data-led approach. You will identify and create goals against opportunities to empower partner-facing teams to drive partner success. You will assess how the Content Partnership teams can drive additional business for partners in specific content verticals. You will size these opportunities through rigorous analysis, test them through pilots and partner feedback, design strategies to inform roll-out and influence executive-level stakeholders of the need for change.

At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories.

Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun — and we do it all together.
