  • Adoption and Utilization: Partner deeply with local sales and marketing teams to drive the regional adoption of new agency tools, ensuring high utilization of GrabAds' enterprise features.
  • Evolution: As agencies continue to come under pressure GrabAds will need to find ways to penetrate both the C-level but also the media planning & buying layer so that agencies are clear about when and how they should leverage Grab's unique ecosystem. You will be required to "future proof" our agency business thinking through issues like tool integrations, enablement & certifications, in partnership with relevant cross functional partners e.g. sales enablement, marketing etc.
