About The Position

Strategy & Analytics on Retailer Growth spans the full early retailer journey at Faire — from paid marketing and channel strategy at the top of the funnel, through in-product activation, to long-term retention. We find and prioritize the biggest opportunities to grow and retain retailers on the platform, partnering closely with Marketing, Product, Data Science, Finance and Engineering. We have two lead roles open on the team: one focused on top-of-funnel acquisition and paid marketing, and one focused on in-product early lifecycle experience and retention levers. Both roles call for the same underlying persona: someone who pairs analytical rigor with strategic intuition and wants to use that superpower to drive business impact in a fast-paced environment.
