About the job
Our marketing campaign projects, like our users, span the globe and require managers to keep the big picture in focus. As part of the Global Marketing team, you plan requirements with internal customers and/or external agencies and usher projects through the entire project lifecycle. Your projects often span offices, time zones and hemispheres, and it’s your job to keep all the players coordinated on the project’s progress and deadlines.
As Global Head of Production for Google Devices and Services Marketing, you will lead a team of producers to deliver some of our most visible work. You will partner with agencies on high-profile media placements to work with our internal creative and social team to deliver always-on content. You will be running and building out the engine that keeps the creative bar high while delivering work on-time and on budget. As a creative leader, you will help us continue to design and implement best practices through influence on organizational design, resource management, budgeting, approval processes, as well as the work itself.
You will manage multidisciplinary projects across all mediums. This includes getting clear on the strategy, setting and managing project schedules and budgets, as well as partnering across the organization to identify risks and clearly communicate goals to project stakeholders and the team.

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.
