Job Description

Posted On: April 08, 2020

Whether you're on a consumer product (like Gmail, Search, Maps, Chrome, Android) or a business product (Google Ads, AdSense, Google Marketing Platform, Analytics), you take part in a complete marketing experience as you lead every facet of the product's journey. From determining positioning, naming, competitive analysis, feature prioritization and external communications, you help shape the voice of the product and help it grow a consumer base. This means you work with a cross-functional team across Sales, corporate communications, legal, webmasters, product development, engineering and more. In this role, you'll be involved with product marketing strategy from beginning to end.


A known operator in sponsorship strategy, planning, and execution, this role’s focus is to help develop Google’s integrated marketing partnership strategy for sports and entertainment partnerships worldwide. Reporting to the Director of Global Partnership Marketing, you will be responsible for building and driving the strategy, analysis, measurement and implementation of new and existing partnerships across Google’s diverse and innovative organization.


In this role, you will be a key pioneering member and advocate of the Global Sports & Entertainment Partnership marketing function across the Google organization. You're expected to conceive and execute breakthrough partnership architectures and ideas that will elevate the Google brand and individual Google products. Your strategic mind will raise our game for how we bring our products and brands to life by amplifying not just what we say, but how we go about saying it with and through our strategic partnerships. You are expected to be a doer as well as a thinker, building materials that enable our team to push ideas beyond the norm.


Know the user. Know the magic. Connect the two. At its core, marketing at Google starts with technology and ends with the user, bringing both together in unconventional ways. Our job is to demonstrate how Google's products solve the world's problems--from the everyday to the epic, from the mundane to the monumental. And we approach marketing in a way that only Google can--changing the game, redefining the medium, making the user the priority, and ultimately, letting the technology speak for itself.
