Remote Job Description
Yelp is looking for a seasoned leader to lead the product team building the Yelp Ad Network (YAN). Yelp has built its success connecting businesses and consumers on our platform. With YAN, we’re looking to extend that success to the broader ads ecosystem — allowing advertisers to reach Yelp consumers on other high-quality publishers’ apps and sites.
In this high-impact, high-visibility role, you will lead a group of product managers in building out Yelp’s Ad Network. This is a company-critical focus area, and while we have great traction with the product, there’s still plenty of room for innovation. You’ll drive key decisions like which publishers we partner with, whether we build or buy critical ad tech components, and ultimately —how we offer the best local business cross-platform advertising product.
This role requires regular and close interaction with Yelp’s C-level executives as we build our product offering. You will also work closely with cross-functional stakeholders across Business Operations, Sales, Business Development, Engineering, Data Science, and Design to build and execute on Product’s vision.
This opportunity is fully remote and does not require you to be located in any particular area in Canada. We welcome applicants from throughout Canada. We’d love to have you apply, even if you don’t feel you meet every single requirement in this posting. At Yelp, we’re looking for great people, not just those who simply check off all the boxes.
What you'll do:
- Define the product strategy and roadmap for the Yelp Advertising Network.
- Hire and develop a team of talented Product Managers and help your team craft their objectives, KPIs and roadmaps.
- Work with Strategy, Business Development and Sales teams to create value proposition, go-to-market strategy and product-market fit for new advertising products and partnerships.
- Work with technical Engineering and Data science teams to drive complex projects from ideation to successful launch.
- Regularly communicate the vision, strategy and roadmap with executive leadership.
What it takes to succeed:
- Multiple years of hands-on experience delivering highly successful and innovative ad products that drive impact and revenue.
- Deep understanding of the advertising ecosystem — you know your SSPs from your DMPs.
- Experience leading a team of PMs: You are personally invested in coaching, mentoring and making great PMs even better.
- All-around leader: you can rally the whole organization behind your product vision — from individual contributors to the CEO.
- A Bachelor’s Degree or an equivalent work experience is required.
What you'll get:
- This opportunity has the option to be fully remote in all locations across Canada.
