    Job Description

    MGM+ is building the function it has never had before: a single owner for worldwide subscriber growth strategy, programming advisory, and commercial partnerships. As Head of WW Growth & Programming Strategy, you will set the commercial and content direction for a global premium streaming service. You will report directly to the Global GM and work at the intersection of data, content, and subscriber economics.

    MGM+ is Amazon"s prestige streaming brand, home to acclaimed originals including FROM & Robin Hood and a deep MGM library. This role owns three strategic pillars: subscriber growth and LTV strategy (pricing, promotions, sampling, retention), programming strategy advisory (translating audience data into content mix recommendations), and business development (distribution deals, bundling, and commercial partnerships). You will be the connective tissue between analytical insight and business decisions that directly move the P&L.

    This is a rare opportunity to define a function from scratch at a high-profile streaming service, with global scope from day one and direct access to the senior leadership team.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Own worldwide subscriber growth and LTV strategy - including pricing, promotional strategy, sampling programs, and retention interventions - and translate analytical outputs into recommendations with clear owners and measurable outcomes
    • Serve as the primary strategic link between MGM+"s data and analytics function and the business decisions that move the subscriber P&L
    • Use audience and subscriber data to advise programming leadership on content mix, genre strategy, format priorities, and slate decisions that serve acquisition and retention goals
    • Partner with GDA (Global Data and Analytics) to develop and maintain the modelling frameworks that inform commercial decision-making across pricing, churn, and content investment
    • Pursue business development and commercial partnership opportunities - including distribution arrangements, sampling deals, and bundling - that drive subscriber growth at scale
    • Build and maintain the strategic view of MGM+"s competitive positioning in the premium streaming market, across both US and international territories
    • Operate effectively in a matrixed organisation, influencing decisions across programming, marketing, finance, and technology without direct authority over those teams
    • Define and track the KPIs that measure growth strategy effectiveness, and present performance and recommendations to senior leadership

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
