About the role and team

Sales at Uber means navigating ambiguity, earning trust fast, and solving problems that don't come with a script.

Success here requires a "go-get-it" attitude, deep curiosity about our technology, and the resilience to stay steady when navigating tough conversations or complex partner escalations.

  • Improve operational excellence by unblocking technical and catalog-related issues, ensuring stock accuracy and catalog health meet high standards for our users.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally across marketing, product, and operations to resolve blockers and shape solutions that scale across the retail environment.

  • Manage a high-volume pipeline with discipline and urgency, adapting your approach based on shifting market dynamics and partner needs.

Basic Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Marketing, Economics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

  • 1+ years of experience, ideally in full-cycle account management, B2B sales, or a similar analytical role.

  • Proficiency in Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel to perform data analysis and create insights.

  • Experience with stakeholder engagement and building collaborative relationships within and across teams.

  • Intermediate-Advanced proficiency in English for managing internal projects and communications.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Proven ability in negotiation and deal-making, specifically in upselling digital marketing tools like ads and offers.

  • Familiarity with Salesforce or similar CRM tools for disciplined reporting and pipeline management.

  • Experience working within the retail, grocery, e-commerce, or CPG industries.
