The Global Content & Operations (GC&O) team is looking for a Strategy & Operations Lead to drive some of our most important cross-functional initiatives across the content and creator ecosystem. In this high-impact IC role, you’ll shape strategy, design the operating model and lead execution for programs that grow creator engagement, monetization and operational effectiveness.

You’ll own a portfolio of strategic and operational initiatives end to end—from framing the problem to developing recommendations and turning them into action with partners across Product, Analytics, Finance and Business Operations.

What you’ll do: 

• Partner with GC&O leadership to define and drive the team’s strategic plan, including annual and mid-year planning, OKRs and investment recommendations across our global content and creator bets
• Lead large, highly cross-functional initiatives that improve how we plan, launch and scale content and creator programs, from early problem framing through execution and post-mortem
• Design and evolve the GC&O operating model, including governance, decision-making forums, performance indicators and business review rhythms that increase clarity, accountability and speed
• Develop clear narratives that synthesize complex data, market dynamics and internal signals into concise stories for senior leadership reviews, investment decisions and strategy alignment
• Build and maintain reporting, dashboards and business reviews that surface insights on creator health, engagement, monetization and operational efficiency, then translate them into concrete action plans
• Connect global strategy with regional execution by identifying gaps, codifying best practices and ensuring that programs scale effectively across markets
• Proactively identify and size opportunities to improve and scale the business (e.g. processes, systems, tooling, vendor strategy), then lead pilots and rollouts with cross-functional partners
• Operate as a strategic thought partner to GC&O and cross-functional leaders, helping them decide what to start, accelerate or rethink to unlock growth for Pinners, creators and partners

 

What we’re looking for:

• 8+ years of experience in management consulting, investment banking, corporate strategy, business operations or similar roles in technology or media
• Experience in the content and/or creator ecosystem in a strategy, business operations, partnerships or programming capacity
• Demonstrated strength in structured problem solving, including framing ambiguous questions, building hypotheses, scoping analyses and turning insights into clear, prioritized recommendations
• Ability to move seamlessly from strategy to execution, including designing initiatives, sequencing work, setting success metrics and driving follow-through with cross-functional teams
• Strong communication and narrative storytelling skills; you’re comfortable building executive-ready materials that synthesize complex data and competing signals into sharp, simple narratives
• Experience influencing without formal authority across multiple functions (for example Partnerships, Editorial, Product, Analytics, Biz Ops, Finance) and aligning stakeholders with different priorities
• Strong analytical skills and comfort working with data; experience with SQL or other querying languages to independently pull and structure data, plus familiarity with tools like Tableau or Salesforce
• Bachelor’s degree in business, economics, a related field or equivalent experience
• Organized, detail-oriented and resilient, with a bias toward action, continuous improvement and learning in fast-changing environments
