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.

Across the Comparison and Lead Gen team we support some of the biggest comparison and affiliate players in EMEA and many others who all act as key decision making partners to millions of consumers across many industries.

While some decisions are very simple, others are complex and can take a long time (e.g., Insurances, Mortgages, Travel, or more). To maximize what our solutions can do for these customers requires a deep understanding of the client’s processes and user journey as well as working on the forefront of our measurement and product solutions in close collaboration with product management and specialists.

In this role, you will help some advertisers scale up their first successful steps in the upper funnel or pursue Share of Wallet shifts from previously TV heavy advertisers like C24 or Verivox.
