Senior Manager, Intelligence & Advocacy

Airbnb•Anywhere•Full-time
View Job
Compensation$175K - 220K a year

Lead fraud intelligence and global trust advocacy teams to identify and disrupt fraud threats and translate findings into platform defenses and policy improvements. | Requires 12+ years in trust and safety, fraud intelligence, or risk operations, including 5+ years managing teams, plus regulatory expertise and executive stakeholder influence. | Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. The Community You Will Join: Fraud & Safety Delivery (FSD) is at the heart of keeping Airbnb safe for the millions of hosts and guests who trust our platform every day. As part of Global Operations, FSD investigates and enforces on fraud and safety cases across the full user lifecycle, from account creation to post-stay, leveraging a team of internal and partner agents operating 24/7 across the globe. The Intelligence & Advocacy team is FSD’s proactive intelligence and regional advocacy function. Fraud Intelligence hunts emerging threats before they scale, turning raw signals into platform defenses faster than bad actors can adapt. Global Trust Advocacy ensures that what works globally actually works locally, owning regional legal requirements, cultural nuances, and compliance considerations across APAC, EMEA, and LATAM. Together, this team is why Airbnb stays ahead of novel fraud, and why global strategies hold up in every market. The Difference You Will Make: As the Senior Manager, Intelligence & Advocacy, you'll lead two teams: the Fraud Intelligence (FRINT) team and the Global Trust Advocacy (GTA) team. You'll sit on the FSD leadership team and report directly to the Director of Fraud and Safety Investigations. These two teams share a common purpose: staying ahead of what's coming and making sure Fraud & Safety Operations' (FSO's) strategies actually work in the real world. FRINT finds fraud before it scales. GTA ensures global playbooks land in every market, without breaking local policy, compliance, or cultural context. You'll own three outcomes for the org: Proactive intelligence: Lead a team that identifies and disrupts novel fraud threats before they scale, turning raw signals into platform defenses faster than bad actors can adapt. Regional compliance and advocacy: Understand regional legal requirements, local compliance, and cultural nuances across FSO queues, ensuring enforcement is locally appropriate and globally consistent. Global-to-local translation: Ensure that every global playbook, product launch, and policy built lands cleanly in local markets, without creating compliance risk or impacting local user experience. A Typical Day: Lead the Intelligence & Advocacy team Manage the Fraud Intelligence manager and three Global Trust Advocacy regional leads (APAC, EMEA, LATAM) — building a high-performance, distributed team with clear goals, regular coaching, and a strong culture of ownership. Set the strategy and operating rhythm for how Intelligence & Advocacy delivers against I&I's roadmap and FSD's organizational priorities. Represent Intelligence & Advocacy on the FSD leadership team — bringing the proactive intelligence and regional advocacy perspective to org-wide decisions. Build and deepen strategic relationships with regional GMs, Country Managers, and local leadership across every market. Drive fraud intelligence strategy Own the strategic direction of FRINT — the team responsible for proactively identifying, analyzing, and disrupting novel fraud threats before they scale across the platform. Oversee the team's intelligence cycle: detecting anomalies and emerging patterns, analyzing fraud networks and threat actor methodologies, implementing real-time mitigations via grigri and live rules engines, and reporting findings to leadership and cross-functional partners. Partner with Trust Engineering, Data Science, and Product to translate intelligence findings into automated detection rules, platform defenses, and upstream policy changes. Own global trust advocacy and regional compliance Understand regional compliance, local legal requirements, and cultural nuances across FSO queues — serving as the authoritative voice on what global enforcement strategies need to adapt to work locally and advocate for localized solutions to enable regional growth. Ensure global playbooks built by GM and platform teams translate well to local execution — proactively identifying where global-default approaches create compliance risk, cultural friction, or operational gaps in non-US markets. Lead structured stakeholder engagement with Country Managers, regional business leads, Legal, Public Policy, and Supply teams across APAC, EMEA, and LATAM — hosting QBRs, forums, and recurring syncs that build trust and surface regional priorities early. Translate regional risk signals into standardized intelligence briefs that feed directly into FSO planning, product roadmaps, and prioritization. Influence and partner cross-functionally Build strong relationships with Product, Engineering, Data Science, Legal, Public Policy, and regional business teams to ensure FSO's proactive intelligence and regional needs are represented early in planning. Communicate complex fraud intelligence and regional compliance considerations clearly to executive and senior leadership audiences — making the invisible visible. Act as a thought partner to peers on the FSD leadership team, helping the org make better decisions through proactive intelligence, regional insight, and advocacy for localized execution. Your Expertise: 12+ years of experience in trust and safety, fraud intelligence, risk operations, or a related field — with a track record that spans both deep analytical work and cross-functional leadership. 5+ years managing teams, including experience managing managers — you know how to build team capability, set clear expectations, and develop people toward greater autonomy and scope. Demonstrated experience in fraud intelligence, risk strategy, or threat analysis — you understand how fraud actors operate, how detection systems work, and what it takes to stay ahead of evolving tactics. Deep understanding of regional and international trust and safety dynamics — you've navigated local legal requirements, regulatory landscapes, and cultural nuances across multiple markets, and you know how global-default strategies break down in practice. Strong cross-functional influence skills — you know how to build credibility with regional business leaders, Legal, Policy, and Product partners, and how to translate FSO needs into language that moves roadmaps and decisions. Analytical depth — you can interpret large volumes of data, surface insight from ambiguous signals, and build compelling cases from both quantitative and qualitative inputs. Clear, direct communicator — you produce authoritative intelligence products and present regional risk assessments to executive audiences with confidence and precision. Experience operating in a global, distributed team environment — you thrive across time zones, cultures, and organizational contexts without losing clarity or accountability. Familiarity with fraud detection tooling, rules engines, or intelligence platforms is a strong plus — you don't need to build them yourself, but you understand how they work and what your team needs to succeed.

You would own and improve Luxe listing acquisition and onboarding, managing pipeline health, quality, budgets, vendors, performance metrics, and cross-functional programs. | The role requires 8+ years in program or operations management or related fields, end-to-end pipeline ownership, budget and vendor management, hands-on Salesforce, and strong analytical and communication skills. | Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. The Community You Will Join: Airbnb’s mission of providing inspiring travel experiences for our hosts and guests is heavily reliant on our Supply teams’ success in ensuring high quality supply in the market. The Homes Enterprise team sits at the heart of this mission. We ensure that Airbnb's supply engine runs efficiently and intelligently - from how we identify demand and supply imbalances, to acquiring, vetting, onboarding and growing our host base, to how we communicate at scale, plan markets globally, and operate our field sales teams across every region. This is a team that makes things happen, removes friction, and builds the systems that allow Airbnb's Stays business to grow durably. The Luxe Vetting team, within the Homes Enterprise team, is responsible for onboarding new Luxe listings, defining and enforcing the quality bar that keeps the Luxe badge meaningful, and converting existing high-potential Marketplace listings into Luxe. The Difference You Will Make: Airbnb Luxe is a curated category of 9,000+ vetted, high-end homes delivering exceptional quality and premium service. As of this year, Luxe is one of Airbnb's fastest-growing categories, and is Airbnb's proving ground for the managed marketplace model.

You'll also take on cross-team programs and represent the team in leadership settings, with scope to grow. A Typical Day: Own and continuously improve end-to-end onboarding operations to meet the pace and quality the business requires. Build and run new listing acquisition and onboarding approaches in partnership with Sales and other cross-functional teams. Identify and close gaps in tooling and process so the team runs on durable systems rather than manual workarounds. Manage program budgets and vendor relationships, including selecting external partners as needed. Drive shared programs with peer leads from planning through execution, taking on new projects as team priorities evolve. Represent the team in internal team meetings, cross-functional forums, and leadership settings as needed. Track the key metrics for your programs, diagnose the drivers when performance slips, and identify and pull the levers to get back on track. Your Expertise: 8+ years of experience in program/operations management, sales or revenue operations, or supply chain operations in a high-growth, cross-functional environment. Proven track record owning a pipeline or funnel end-to-end, from design through steady-state operation, including budget and vendor accountability. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including building dashboards and using data to drive decisions; advanced data analytics skills are preferred (i.e. SQL). Deep, hands-on experience with Salesforce, including building dashboards and reports, and diagnosing and resolving pipeline or automation issues. Comfortable getting things done with a sense of urgency and adapting quickly to changing priorities to hit project goals and objectives. Proven track record navigating a matrixed organization and building relationships to achieve goals with cross-functional teams, including Sales, Product, and technical teams.
