The APAC Growth Marketing team builds awareness, consideration, and adoption of Amazon Ads among enterprise advertisers, agencies, and partners across Asia Pacific. Our programs reflect each market's buying cycles, customer behaviors, and culture, while staying consistent with the global Amazon Ads brand.
We are looking for a Senior Marketing Manager to lead brand and positioning marketing for Amazon Ads in Japan, with a focus on enterprise advertisers. You will shape how Japanese brands and agencies see Amazon Ads as a full-funnel advertising partner. Your work centers on always-on thought leadership in Japanese business and trade media, senior spokespeople who represent Amazon Ads in market, and the in-person experience at flagship events such as Amazon Japan. This is an individual contributor role with significant cross-functional influence.
The ideal candidate has native-level Japanese and deep knowledge of the Japanese advertising landscape, including agency group structures, media buying norms, and advertiser planning cycles. You have built B2B brand, PR, or event programs that support enterprise sales cycles. You understand how decisions are made across holding companies, their subsidiary agencies, and independent agencies, and you shape messages that resonate with each. You set the strategy behind your programs, define success metrics before launch, and measure results beyond activity. This is a fast-moving role that demands strong ownership, sharp prioritization, and clear communication. Responsibilities span brand positioning, content and thought leadership, executive communications, event experience, and budget management. You thrive in ambiguity, manage a demanding project pipeline autonomously, partner effectively across global and regional teams, and advocate confidently for Japan marketplace needs within a global organization.

• Lead an always-on thought leadership program in Japanese business and trade media that articulates the Amazon Ads value proposition

• Partner with Sales, PR, Product Marketing, and partner teams, and represent brand and positioning in Japan business planning
• Set clear goals and measurement mechanisms, and report results in business reviews
