Google To Strengthen Its Indonesia Sales Team

An interesting finding by Amu earlier this afternoon, a job vacancy from Google Indonesia looking for sales team based in Indonesia. As we know, Google has been doing some low-key activities in Indonesia as a reaction for the country’s rapid internet user growth. Google held up events for bloggers + social media enthusiasts and also for brand owners + agencies in Indonesia.

In the job vacancy, you can see Google Indonesia is looking for Industry Manager to handle sales operation for Travel/Consumer Packaged Goods and also for Tech/Finance vertical clients. The description also states that these 2 positions will be managed under Google Advertising, which means selling Google AdWords to brand owners and agencies.

There’s also a strong rumor saying that Google is finalizing its office in Indonesia, although I’ve been hearing this rumor for quite some time but there’s still no sign that Google is setting up an Indonesian office until several months ago where Google pointed a guy to run Google Indonesia, Henky Prihatna. And whether Google Indonesia’s office will be as awesome as the one in Zurich, is still yet to be seen.

UPDATE
