Impact Marketing Team Leader – Kazakhstan
This is a senior operational role within the Media, Art & Narrative Domain. You are the operational engine of the Impact Marketing Team. You are responsible for translating high-level initiative goals into actionable communications plans, coordinating the Project Management team, and ensuring world-class execution across all marketing channels. While the Head of Domain defines the strategic vision and creative commissioning, you own the workflows, briefs, and performance of the day-to-day marketing machine.

- Briefs: Extract subject-matter insights from initiatives and translate them into crystal-clear, actionable creative briefs.
- Lead 360-degree campaign planning: Ensure every initiative has a living 6–12 month multi-channel communications plan. Orchestrate how a single brief comes to life across the entire distribution ecosystem (digital performance, organic social, PR, physical activations, and the inDrive Ad Network).
- Directly manage and balance the workload of the team.
- Own quarterly scoping and prioritization (rack-and-stack) to protect team bandwidth and ensure SLA delivery.

- Diplomatic Stakeholder Management: Ability to influence without authority across dotted lines, including managing relationships with initiative-embedded marketing teams.
- Performance Fluency: Deep understanding of above- and below-the-line marketing metrics and scalable distribution.
- Help us challenge injustice by creating fair choices for millions of people across 1100+ cities in 48 countries.
