We're seeking a dynamic Manager, Operations Manager to lead a team of Policy Risk Specialists and drive operational excellence across our Ad Policy Operations team. In this high-impact role, you'll shape how we scale and optimize end-to-end policy's operational processes, from policy inception through enforcement, all while maintaining the highest standards of trust, efficiency, and scale.

You will be responsible for deeply understanding the processes we maintain, you will relentlessly seek out improvement opportunities, and you will act as an advocate for our customers, advertisers, and our team.

If you are looking for a program management position in a team that has a varied and exciting remit, if you have a proven track record of developing talent, and if you are a self-starter that can solve issues with considerable autonomy, this is the role for you.

• Lead cross-functional programs to improve policy decision-making, accuracy, and consistency.
• Build and maintain executive-level reporting on operational performance and strategic initiatives.
• Manage stakeholder relationships across multiple teams and regions.
