About the job

The YouTube Product Partnerships team (YTPP) drives partner strategy and manages the key relationships that help make YouTube's products more universally accessible and useful. We own the business side of new products and initiatives, and our strategic partnerships seek to build, distribute, grow, and protect YouTube's products globally. We know how to assess partnership opportunities in any situation, define a strategy, and work closely within our team as well as with Product, Marketing, and other cross-functional stakeholders to drive critical partnerships that help evolve our business.

YTPP's Access team is responsible for YouTube's strategic alliances with Telcos globally. Telco partners are critical to delivering the YouTube experience, YouTube's traffic travels over their networks to reach our users, and we partner closely with them to bring our products to market. With these important partners, we define and structure strategic partnerships, discuss complex, often first-of-kind agreements, and manage executive and working-level partner relationships.

At YouTube, we believe that everyone deserves to have a voice, and that the world is a better place when we listen, share, and build community through our stories. We work together to give everyone the power to share their story, explore what they love, and connect with one another in the process. Working at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and boundless creativity, we move at the speed of culture with a shared goal to show people the world. We explore new ideas, solve real problems, and have fun - and we do it all together.
