Facebook Looks to Hire Global Head of Agency Relations

Facebook posted a job this week looking for a Global Head of Agency Relations to work in either Palo Alto, Calif. or New York City. The person filling the position is set to be responsible for defining the company’s “global agency strategy and developing relationships with our key agency partners.”

The hire comes at a time when the company has seen its brand clients — and their spending — increase rapidly. The first brands to buy advertising and use Pages on Facebook have upped their spending this past year, we’ve heard from industry sources, while inspiring their peers to start experimenting.

The position will work with sales, operations, product and marketing teams across regions and countries, and will be required to build partnerships and drive relationships, according to the post. This person will be negotiating “complex agency contracts,” develop programs to “improve agency experience,” work with advertising and ultimately represent Facebook at industry events.

Required experience is 15-plus years of marketing, strategy, online advertising — so it looks like they’re looking for a seasoned veteran — and also someone who understands the media and its business models. Lots of travel will also be required.
