Jobs at Uber in Singapore

We are looking for someone to lead our Public Policy team in APAC. This means setting direction in motion across a region defined by its immense scale and starkly different regulatory landscapes.

This isn’t a role for someone who wants to stay at the 30,000-foot view. This isn’t a role for someone who wants to stay at the 30,000-foot view. You will lead a massive regional footprint of 25+ policy experts, but you’ll also need to dive deep into the technical "weeds" of competition policy, the future of work, and autonomous vehicles. Success here requires a "go-get-it" attitude, grit, and the ability to turn ambiguity into a well-articulated, actionable plan that cross-functional partners can rally behind.

Based in either Sydney or Singapore and reporting to the Global Head of Public Policy, you will be a key leader in our APAC organization. If you are energized by the challenge of making things better—even when the path isn\'t clear—this is where you’ll make your mark.

• Lead the Regional Charge: Direct a team of 25+ public policy professionals across APAC, fostering a culture of excellence and resilience while managing high-velocity regional strategies.
• Turn ambiguity into strategy: Take unstructured, complex regulatory challenges—from labor classification to agentic AI—and translate them into clear strategies that move the needle for the business.
• Translate global into local impact: Transform global research and data from HQ into politically relevant, locally resonant arguments that demonstrate our value to city stakeholders.
• Own the Long Game: Make decisions with an eye on both immediate local impact and the long-term global implications for Uber\'s multi-line business.
• Be a Strategic Multiplier: Partner cross-functionally with Product, Safety, Legal, and Tax teams, offering strategic advice that balances aggressive growth with regulatory sustainability.
• Drive Advocacy Excellence: Conceptualize and drive integrated campaigns that proactively influence policy trends rather than just reacting to them.
• Communicate with Precision: Represent Uber at the highest levels of government and industry, establishing a strong network of allies while communicating crisply in complex organizational settings.

• 15+ years of proven experience in government, law, technology policy, or competition policy within Asia.
• Extensive experience leading a large team of professionals across multiple diverse jurisdictions.
• Demonstrated experience counseling executives on complex regulatory subjects and leading multiple business priorities.

• Deep familiarity with the platform economy, mobility, and future-of-work policy trends specific to the APAC region.
• An appetite for uncertainty and change, with a track record of thriving in fast-moving environments.
• Ability to connect company strategy to regional success factors while managing risks and opportunities.
• Exceptional oral and written communication skills, with the ability to distill complex content for executive-level audiences.

• Strategic vision and narrative: Set a clear long-term vision for APAC policy and translate it into a simple story, sharp priorities, and an operating plan a large, distributed team can execute at pace.
• Systems thinking: Anticipate second- and third-order effects across markets, lines of business, and regulators. Spot structural policy risks early and shape scalable frameworks before issues escalate.
• Stakeholder orchestration: Align diverse internal and external stakeholders, clarify decision rights, and resolve trade-offs to land outcomes that serve shared business goals.
• Execution under pressure: Operate with urgency and discipline. Deliver a high volume of high-stakes work with strong follow-through, sound judgment, and consistent quality.
• Analytical rigor: Build and test positions with data and a “devil’s advocate” mindset. Pressure-test assumptions, quantify impact, and communicate conclusions clearly.

Leadership and presence: Comfortable operating in ambiguity, with high integrity and the ability to represent Uber credibly with senior government and industry leaders.
