Global Lead- Ambassador

About Amber

• Amber is a long-term accommodation booking platform built for students. We help over 80
• million students worldwide find and book full-time accommodation near their
• universities—without the hassle of negotiation, non-standardized paperwork, or fragmented
• payment processes.
• Today, Amber is the leading global student housing platform, with 1M+ student housing
• units listed across 10 countries and 80+ cities. We're growing rapidly and are on track to
• achieve $1B in annual gross bookings. Backed by $18.5M in funding from marquee
• investors like Gaja Capital, we're building the future of student living.
• If you're passionate about making international mobility and student living seamless and
• accessible, we'd love to have you join us.

The role

• We're building a global, on-ground community and ambassador network — students and local
• creators who represent Amber in their cities, create authentic content, and help fellow students
• settle into a new country. The mandate to design, build and lead that network end-to-end, from
• strategy through to operations, across three continents.
• You'll own the program globally from our Pune HQ, working across time zones to establish real
• on-ground presence in our key student markets. It's part strategist, part operator, part
• team-builder — you'll set the vision and make it run.
• What you'll own
• ● Strategy & vision — design the global community and ambassador program from the
• ground up: structure, tiers, regional coverage, and how it ladders into brand growth and
• bookings.
• ● Build the network — recruit, onboard and scale a large global ambassador base across
• the UK, Australia and US, with local leadership in priority cities. Ensure no region is
• under-served.
• ● Offline & experiential activations — design and run on-ground activations, local
• partnerships and events that build brand presence where students actually live and
• gather.
• ● Content engine — turn the network into a consistent, high-quality stream of social and
• property content across platforms, with the systems to track coverage and output.
• ● Team leadership — hire and lead a distributed network of city leads and ambassadors
• ● Economics & measurement — own the program budget, build the cost model, and
• prove return against clear performance metrics
• ● Systems & ops — stand up the CRM, onboarding, payments and attribution
• infrastructure needed to run a network of this scale reliably.
• What you'll bring
• ● 8+ years in community, field or brand marketing, with demonstrable experience
• building and scaling an ambassador, community or field-marketing network —
• ideally across multiple countries.
• ● Hands-on experience with offline / experiential activations and local partnerships, not
• just digital programs.
• ● A track record of building and leading distributed teams, including managing people
• across regions and time zones.
• ● Strong commercial instinct — comfortable owning a budget and defending the program
• on hard metrics, not vanity numbers.
• ● Operator's mindset: you've built programs from scratch, set up the systems, and run
• them — not just overseen them.
• ● Fluency in how students and young audiences discover, trust and engage with brands
• across social platforms.
• Nice to have
• ● Experience in student housing, edtech, travel, or a youth/student-facing consumer
• brand.
• ● Exposure to international student audiences (India, SEA, China) and Western markets.
• ● Familiarity with creator/influencer ecosystems and content operations at scale.
