About the Role

Pinterest's Consumer Brand team is seeking a Strategy & Operations Lead to join the S&O Strategic Projects and Programs (SPP) team. This role will act as the embedded operational partner for the Consumer Brand function, responsible for initiating and owning critical cross-functional strategic projects, designing planning cadences, and leading governance and program delivery. You will collaborate with senior marketing leadership to address challenges, frame decisions, and ensure the function's highest-priority work is executed across brand campaigns, partnerships, and health strategy.

Responsibilities

Initiate and own Consumer Brand's most critical cross-functional strategic projects end-to-end, including problem identification, decision framing, stakeholder alignment, and driving follow-through across brand campaign strategy, brand partnerships, brand architecture, and measurement evolution.
Design, integrate, and implement the Consumer Brand function's planning cadences (MBRs, QBRs, annual and campaign planning cycles), including building inputs, facilitating sessions, and synthesizing outcomes into clear decisions and investment forecasts for headcount and budget.
Lead governance and program delivery across multiple functions within Consumer Brand, serving as the single source of truth for strategic context, headcount status, and planning rationale.
Monitor metrics and milestones across interconnected initiatives and hold the working team accountable for outcomes, surfacing priority conflicts before they become escalations.
Utilize AI to accelerate synthesis, analysis, and planning work by distilling brand research inputs, drafting decision frameworks, and building planning materials faster, while maintaining judgment and accountability over final deliverables.
Partner with Integrated Marketing, Brand Partnerships, Brand Research, Growth Marketing, and XFN teams (Product, Sales, Finance) to align on function priorities and advance complex initiatives.

Requirements

8+ years of experience in strategy, operations, or a related field, with a track record of independently initiating and owning highly complex, cross-functional work.
Experience working within or closely alongside a brand marketing or consumer marketing organization, understanding the connection between campaigns, brand partnerships, brand health measurement, and business outcomes.
Experience designing and implementing a function's strategic planning system, including mid-year and annual planning cycles, and partnering with business management teams on investment forecasts for headcount and budget.
Ability to make high-quality decisions decisively, even in the absence of complete information.
Demonstrated experience leading governance and program delivery across multiple functions, holding cross-functional working teams accountable for outcomes without direct authority.
Experience mentoring or coaching peers in stakeholder management or strategic problem-solving.
Demonstrated experience using AI to accelerate analysis and planning work, with a clear approach to maintaining quality and accountability for final outcomes.
Strong executive communication skills, with the ability to distill complexity into actionable narratives for VP-level and above audiences.
Bachelor's degree in a relevant field such as Business, Marketing, or a related discipline, or equivalent experience.
