Global Account Executive, Luxury, Advertising Sales , Amazon Ads
Required skills
AWS
As a Global Account Executive for the Luxury Industry, you are driving digital transformation through effective engagement with C-level executives, brand directors, and marketing leaders across the world's leading luxury conglomerates. With your established luxury market relationships, consultative approach, and deep understanding of luxury brand positioning, you will act as a strategic partner to luxury maisons and holding groups, selling a broad range of advertising solutions that protect and amplify brand equity while delivering business outcomes. You will use your relationship building, networking, and strong communication skills to identify, develop, and scale new business opportunities. Partnering with internal, cross-functional teams successfully to deliver results for your luxury advertising customers is required.
Amazon Ads enables luxury brands to express their identity through a curated media environment that blends premium content, cultural moments, and sophisticated digital experiences. Across Prime Video, live sports, Twitch, and high-impact formats, maisons can inspire discerning audiences within brand-safe environments designed to elevate storytelling and deepen emotional connection. Supported by Amazon's rich first-party insights from over 300 million global customer accounts and a network of owned and operated properties alongside trusted publishers, Amazon Ads helps brands reach the right audiences in the right contexts - both on and off Amazon. Advanced technology and AI-enhanced solutions work quietly in the background to refine relevance and orchestration, allowing creativity, craft, and cultural resonance to remain at the forefront while transforming moments of discovery into enduring brand desire.
This is an opportunity to serve as the commercial and strategic steward of brands whose value depends on perception, desirability, and cultural relevance. You will navigate the paradoxes of luxury in digital spaces - reconciling scale with scarcity, personalization with privacy, performance with prestige, and speed with craftsmanship. If you have a consultative selling style, established luxury industry network, and are ready to deliver strategic advertising solutions that respect brand codes and positioning requirements, this role is a match for you.
- Key job responsibilities
- Act as trusted advisor and cultural broker to C-level executives, brand directors, and marketing leaders at luxury maisons and holding groups on advertising, brand building, and digital transformation matters
- Build a portfolio of premium advertising campaigns, innovative brand experiences, and strategic partnerships that leverage Amazon's full stack including Prime Video, Twitch and partnerships with entities like Studios, AWS, and Retail
- Serve as the internal voice of your luxury clients, shaping and influencing Amazon Ads product roadmaps to deliver solutions that respect luxury brand requirements including creative excellence, brand safety, and premium positioning standards
- Demonstrate internal leadership across account teams and partner groups, establishing effective governance mechanisms to deliver strategic outcomes and elevate partnerships across Amazon entities
- Build and execute overarching brand-building strategies from big ideas to analytical recommendations, advocating for upper-funnel metrics such as attention, brand lift, and share of voice in high-value moments
- Educate internal teams about luxury category sensitivities while helping clients understand platform realities, bridging Amazon's capabilities with luxury industry dynamics and competitive environment
