APAC Executive Marketing

About the team

The APAC Marketing team's mission is to engage priority audiences through impactful and relevant programs that drive awareness, growth, and adoption of Stripe across the region. Our Executive Marketing function sits at the intersection of marketing, sales, and senior leadership — orchestrating the programs that build and sustain Stripe's most strategic executive relationships across Asia Pacific.

About the role

The APAC Executive Marketing role owns the suite of programs that connect Stripe's leadership with the region's most important business executives. This is fundamentally a program ownership and governance role : you will design the frameworks, playbooks, tooling, and processes that enable teams across Australia/New Zealand, Japan, Greater China, India and Southeast Asia to execute these programs with consistency and excellence — rather than personally executing every detail.

The programs in scope include:

Corporate hospitality — activating Stripe's global sponsorship portfolio to deliver premium relationship-building experiences for executives in key markets

Regional Advisory Councils (RAC) — extending the impact of Stripe's global Customer Advisory Board into APAC priority markets (Japan, Greater China, AUNZ) through targeted councils that gather voice-of-customer feedback and deepen executive relationships

Global Delegation Experience — leading the APAC chapter of Stripe's invite-only delegation to Sessions in San Francisco, from field-level nomination through white-glove program execution in partnership with Corporate Events

Executive visit orchestration — ensuring that Stripe executives visiting APAC are strategically deployed, their schedules are full and high-impact, and all outcomes are consistently documented

Executive profile elevation — partnering with communications and marketing to build earned thought leadership presence for Stripe's APAC executives through speaking, social, press, and subject matter authority positioning

Executive intelligence — building and maintaining a structured database of the most important executive stakeholders across Stripe's priority and must-win accounts in each market, ensuring every program is engaging the right people

The ideal candidate brings a sales-aligned, account-centric approach to marketing — equally energised by designing and building programs as by running them. They are as comfortable in a quarterly business review as a marketing planning session, instinctively build critical paths and governance structures, and know how to move complex programs forward across a matrix of stakeholders without having direct authority over any of them. They can read an account situation, understand where an executive engagement creates real leverage, and work with a sales leader to prioritise accordingly. They are as effective influencing a regional sales director as they are coordinating with an executive assistant on a scheduling detail — and they understand that both matter equally to whether a program lands well. They bring the operational discipline to translate strategic intent into repeatable, scalable programs across markets as culturally and commercially distinct as Japan, Greater China, and Australia — whether that means building from the ground up or evolving what already exists.

Executive Intelligence and Database

Build and maintain a comprehensive APAC executive database, drawing on first-party sources (sales nominations, CRM data, meeting history) and third-party sources (LinkedIn, industry data, event participation) to identify and verify the right stakeholders at each priority account

Validate the database with regional sales leaders to ensure completeness, accuracy, and alignment with commercial priorities

Tag and segment executives in Stripe's systems to enable easy access, filtering, and reporting — ensuring every executive program can draw on a reliable, current picture of who the most important stakeholders are across the region
