Google Philippines formally opens local office

Google Philippines has formally opened their local office today and announced their first country manager, a position that’s been open since mid-2011.

The Country Manager for the Philippines position was posted in July 2011 but the assignment was based in Singapore. In 2012, they were able to find a candidate (Narciso Reyes, formerly of AdMax/Komli Ad Network) and by late last year, they’ve built a team to operate the local office.

The Philippine office is the 5th office in South East Asia where Google has local presence.

The local team is composed of veteran folks from Yahoo! Philippines, Rappler.com, and Ogilvy PR (for several months now, we’ve been hearing feedback from a lot of people that Google was massively hiring a local team).

The job openings/vacancies is mostly in sales, support and probably corporate communications as well. No development team, no editors or product managers (if you’re wishing for a local Nexus roll-out/subsidy, sorry).

Google Philippines will mainly focus on users, localization and advertisers. Most especially the latter (that’s Google Adwords, Adsense and DoubleClick for Publishers).

Check out our story on “What to expect from the Google Philippines Office“.

Update: Ooops! That was the office address of their PR agency, Team Asia.

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would
    never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me.
    I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get
    the hang of it!

    Furthermore, if you have a high budget, you can add luxury designer watches to your list.
    It is understood that, Windows 7 system is divided into Home Basic, Home Premium Edition, Professional Edition, and Ultimate versions of four.
    The women’s watches radiate the demure and daintiness in comparison to men’s watches.
    First of all, some may think the Invita Men’s Dial Watch
    may look plain. Despite the rather powerful screen specs this is a terrible phone to view photos or any image on.

    We all have heard men and women say this and perhaps you’ve even said it
    yourself. Almost 60% of the caregiving aid is to help you with one or more of
    your activities of daily living. There is no good reason to
    waste your time, or the time of another person, by pursuing even an email relationship with anyone who does not appeal
    to you.
