Snap Inc is a technology company. We believe the camera presents the greatest opportunity to improve the way people live and communicate. Snap contributes to human progress by empowering people to express themselves, live in the moment, learn about the world, and have fun together. The Company’s three core products are Snapchat, a visual messaging app that enhances your relationships with friends, family, and the world; Lens Studio, an augmented reality platform that powers AR across Snapchat and other services; and its AR glasses, Spectacles.

About the Role

We are looking for a senior, commercially driven Creative Strategy leader to shape and scale Snapchat’s impact across APAC, with a core mandate to build the region’s export creative engine.

More than 90 percent of APAC revenue is driven by export. This role exists to turn that reality into a competitive advantage. You will lead how Snap’s best global thinking, solutions, and client successes are systematically synthesised, localised, and activated for APAC advertisers. Acting as a critical bridge between global markets and APAC sales teams, you will ensure that global GTM packages, narratives, and proof points are translated into compelling, locally executable client solutions.

As part of the Global Creative Strategy leadership team, you will lead and inspire a multi-market team of Creative Strategists, represent Creative Strategy in senior client and cross-functional forums, and play a visible role in positioning Snap as a platform for growth across both brand and performance objectives in highly diverse markets.

This is a leadership role requiring cultural fluency, narrative authority, and executive presence, with speed and export impact as non-negotiables.

What You’ll Do

• Lead and develop a multi-market APAC Creative Strategy team, supporting the region’s most strategic and high-value clients.

• Own and build APAC’s export creative strategy, translating global GTM solutions, packages, and case studies into APAC-ready narratives and sellable client solutions.

• Establish strong senior relationships with global Creative Strategy and cross-functional stakeholders to continuously bring the best of Snap’s global thinking into APAC.

• Act as a narrative and solution architect, synthesising complex global inputs into clear, persuasive, commercially sharp stories for APAC advertisers.

• Represent Creative Strategy in senior client meetings, industry events, and Snap activations, serving as a trusted strategic and creative voice.

• Partner closely with APAC Sales leadership to position Creative Strategy as a driver of measurable commercial outcomes across brand and performance objectives.

• Drive bold, insight-led creative thinking that leverages Snap’s most innovative formats, AR capabilities, and AI-enabled tools.

• Champion AI-accelerated workflows and smarter creative operating models to improve speed, consistency, and storytelling quality.

• Build scalable frameworks, playbooks, and reusable assets that enable local teams to confidently sell global solutions.

• Establish clear systems and success metrics to raise creative quality, delivery efficiency, and commercial impact across markets.

What We’re Looking For:

Experience & Leadership

• 12+ years’ experience in creative strategy, brand strategy, or digital marketing, with at least 2 years in senior people leadership roles.

• Proven experience operating in global or matrixed organisations, translating global strategy into effective regional execution.

• Strong understanding of both brand and performance marketing, with a clear point of view on how creativity drives revenue.

• Demonstrated ability to act as a connector between global and regional teams, particularly in export-led or multi-market environments.

• Track record of influencing senior stakeholders and presenting strategic creative narratives with authority and clarity.

• Experience working across APAC markets, with cultural fluency in markets such as China, India, and Australia.

• Mandarin fluency required.

Skills & Mindset:

• Executive presence: confident, credible, and trusted at the most senior levels internally and externally.

• Commercially minded: sees creativity as a growth engine, not a service layer.

• Narrative architect: able to synthesise diverse global inputs into compelling, client-ready stories.

• Cultural translator: adept at adapting global ideas into locally resonant APAC solutions.

• People leader: mentors senior strategists, builds inclusive teams, and creates high performance through clarity and ambition.

• Innovator: embraces data-informed creativity, emerging technology, and AI to elevate creative effectiveness and speed.

Bonus If You Have:

• Experience across agency, platform, and client-side environments.

• Familiarity with creative measurement frameworks, brand lift studies, or performance optimisation tools.

• Experience building regional playbooks, enablement programmes, or scalable creative operating models.

• Experience acting as a public-facing spokesperson or thought leader.
