Regional Ads Policy Lead, APAC Go-To-Market - Singapore

Product area

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.

Job description

The Business Strategy & Operations organization provides business critical insights using analytics, ensures cross functional alignment of goals and execution, and helps teams drive strategic partnerships and new initiatives forward. We stay focused on aligning the highest-level company priorities with effective day-to-day operations, and help evolve early stage ideas into future-growth initiatives.

Additional job description

This role sits at the critical intersection of Business Growth and Ecosystem Safety. As a key member of the APAC GTM Ads Policy team, you will act as a strategic "connector," bridging the gap between global policy frameworks and local market execution. Your mission is to enable safe, sustainable revenue growth for APAC Large Customer Sales (LCS) by advocating for policy relaxation opportunities and systemic fixes that enhance the advertiser experience.

You will play a dual role: an advocate who contextualizes APAC’s unique market dynamics for global teams, and a leader who lands complex policy changes locally with precision. Thriving in a lean, high-performing environment, you will navigate ambiguity to solve intricate problems and influence senior stakeholders. By balancing the need for rigorous enforcement with the drive for commercial opportunity, you ensure that our policy landscape empowers our sales teams rather than hindering them. You are not just a policy expert; you are a strategic partner dedicated to Google’s long-term regional success.
