OpenAI’s mission is to build safe artificial general intelligence that benefits all of humanity. Our EMEA organization translates OpenAI’s global mission and strategy into meaningful local impact, working across Growth, Product, Marketing, Partnerships, Finance, Research, Operations and Compliance.

Turn strategy into execution: Personally move initiatives from diagnosis and prioritization through delivery, measurement and iteration.
Lead cross-functional teams: Align Product, Growth, Marketing, Brand, Partnerships, Finance, Research, Operations and Compliance around shared outcomes.
Represent regional insight: Ensure European market and customer perspectives shape global roadmaps and decisions.
Measure and scale impact: Define success metrics and determine when a successful local approach should be replicated.
You might thrive in this role if you

Have developed country, regional or multi-market strategies and translated them into focused execution plans.
