About the Team

DoorDash ANZ is building a best-in-class Brand and Creative function. This team exists to build the vision, story, systems and value of the DoorDash brand across Australia and New Zealand, inspiring creativity and infusing our brand into every touchpoint of the region's marketing, from always-on campaigns to major sport and entertainment partnerships.

About the Role

Reporting to the ANZ Marketing Director, the ANZ Marketing team is looking for a Senior Manager, Brand and Creative to lead brand strategy and creative development for DoorDash across ANZ. The ideal candidate moves seamlessly between foundational brand strategy and sharp, culturally relevant creative execution. They are as fluent in systems and frameworks as they are in ideas, thrive in a fast-paced, high-autonomy environment, and have a genuine passion for building a challenger brand that competes on experience and cultural relevance rather than budget alone.

This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership role in a market where DoorDash operates with strong creative trust and full autonomy to shape how the brand shows up regionally.

You're excited about this opportunity because you will…

• Build, own and evolve the vision, story and creative expression of the DoorDash brand across ANZ
• Lead the region's brand and creative platform that will guide work across all channels
• Partner closely with internal teams and external agencies to develop remarkable, on-strategy work that builds cultural relevance and earns attention against a well-resourced market leader
• Shape creative for DoorDash's major ANZ sport and entertainment partnerships, ensuring brand and partnership work reinforce each other
• Act as the primary advocate for our three audiences, Consumers, Dashers and Merchants, ensuring brand and creative decisions are grounded in real audience insight
• Own, report on and optimise against ANZ Brand Health goals
• Build brand architecture, narrative and messaging frameworks that can flex across a fast-growing marketing portfolio and product suite
• Lead the Social and Content teams to put DoorDash at the heart of real-time cultural conversation in ANZ
• Own the consumer insights and research roadmap for ANZ, commissioning and interpreting studies that sharpen our understanding of audiences and directly inform brand strategy and creative decisions
• Manage the brand and creative budget across ANZ, including agency retainers, production costs and resourcing, making sharp trade-offs to ensure spend is concentrated behind our highest-impact work

We're excited about you because you have…

• 12+ years of relevant brand strategy and creative experience, either brand-side or within a creative agency
• The ability to translate complex problems into simple, sharp narratives that travel across an organisation
• A track record of partnering with creative teams to develop genuinely remarkable, effective work
• Proven experience crafting brand positioning, architecture and messaging frameworks
• Comfort operating with a high degree of autonomy and ownership, and confidence to hold a clear point of view under pressure
• A collaborative mindset and the ability to work closely with Marketing, Partnerships and Product teams
• A strong instinct for culture and an eye for creative that cuts through, ideally with direct experience in sport, entertainment or lifestyle brand marketing
• A genuine passion for research and brand health measurement; experience designing qualitative and quantitative studies is a plus
