This global individual-contributor role will lead the Activities vertical end to end, from creator acquisition and activation through agency partnerships, content growth, business strategy, and performance management. The role will also lead the engagement vertical across both Activities and Accommodations, own the program's cross-vertical automation agenda, and support broader Accommodations priorities where required. Success requires a strong commercial mindset, operational discipline, analytical fluency, and the ability to influence creators, agencies, and internal stakeholders.

• Design and deliver initiatives that increase creator participation, posting frequency, content creation, and sustained program activity across both verticals.
• Use engagement and performance data to identify opportunities, refine communications, and improve creator and agency effectiveness.

Content activation and program operations
• Plan and activate creator content for Activities across relevant social platforms and markets.
• Coordinate product and supply workflows with internal teams, balancing partner needs with program and business performance.
• Manage multiple workstreams across creators, agencies, marketing, product, technology, supply, and Brand stakeholders in a fast-paced global environment.
• Provide product and technical support by identifying issues, coordinating with the right teams, and driving them through to resolution.

Automation, analytics, and performance
• Lead the automation of the Agoda Ambassador program across both Activities and Accommodations to improve efficiency, scalability, and partner experience.
• Track, analyze, and communicate program performance, including daily Activities bookings, the number of active creators generating at least one booking, creator posting activity, and the volume of Activities content created.
• Build clear performance views and translate data into recommendations, actions, and business decisions.
• Continuously improve operating processes, identify bottlenecks, and create scalable ways of working across teams and external partners.

What you'll need to succeed
• 4-5 years of relevant experience in social media, affiliate marketing within an online business, creator or influencer programs, agency management, partnerships, or a related field.
• Demonstrated experience managing creator, agency, or partner relationships and delivering measurable commercial or engagement outcomes.
• Strong analytical skills and hands-on comfort with SQL and Tableau, with the ability to turn data into clear business insights and growth strategies.
