About the job

Businesses that partner with Google come in all shapes, sizes and market caps, and no one Google advertising solution works for all. Your knowledge of online media combined with your communication skills and analytical abilities shapes how new and existing businesses grow. Using your relationship-building skills, you provide Google-caliber client service, research and market analysis. You anticipate how decisions are made, persistently explore and uncover the business needs of Google's key clients and understand how our range of product offerings can grow their business. Working with them, you set the vision and the strategy for how their advertising can reach thousands of users.

Our Large Customer Sales teams partner closely with many of the world’s biggest advertisers and agencies to develop digital solutions that build businesses and brands. We enjoy a bird’s eye view on the massive transformation occurring as advertising shifts to mobile and online platforms. We're uniquely situated to help shape how companies grow their businesses in the digital age.

  • Share and scale best practices, learnings, and sales strategies, such as objection handling, pitching, and compete tactics to upscale accounts and align solutions with customer and Google business needs. 
  • Resolve and address tactical tests that impede growth. Develop a feedback loop with a product to provide a view for success.
  • Collaborate with Internal stakeholders to block and address detractors and drive growth, realising business outcomes.
