We are delighted to announce that Keiko Hirayama has joined today as the Head of Marketing, Japan.

Keiko is a seasoned marketing expert bringing 11 years of experience in brand marketing at companies like Google Japan. At Google, Keiko joined as one of the original members of the Japan Marketing team, where she was responsible for various consumer products such as Search, YouTube, Chrome browser and recently Assistant. She also led the brand marketing function and helped Google to be ranked as the #1 consumer brand several times including this year. Before Google, Keiko engaged in the planning and development of mobile services in Amazon and was involved in the development of i-mode globally at NTT Docomo.

Besides her work, she has launched a social project to empower female workers as well as to help Japanese companies to change their workstyle from work hard to work smart. She has also organized the female co-workers network as the chairperson of the Japan chapter and executed several internal events.

I am confident that Keiko will bring new and exciting momentum to Rides and Eats as she steps in to lead the marketing efforts to build a best in class brand for Uber Japan.
