About the Role
As the Head of Sales Strategy - Grocery you will be responsible for leading the strategy development & implementation for generating new grocery partnerships throughout the United States. Grocery & Retail is a primary growth bet for Uber, bringing on-demand delivery of almost, almost anything to Uber Eats customers around the world - and this role is absolutely crucial to achieving that goal.
Who are we looking for? Someone who has a commercial mindset, analytical capabilities, and also has proven experience closing major accounts and cultivating C-Suite-level relationships, who isn't afraid to dig into the details and get their hands dirty.
This is a hybrid role based in our office spaces, with in-person collaboration on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. We encourage our employees to work from our office on additional days if they desire to do so.
What You’ll Do
- Lead strategy development for forming new grocery partnerships
- Develop new sales materials

What will make you successful:
- Storytelling - Ability to craft a story that resonates with C-level executives and key decision makers
- Data Driven - Self-sufficient in querying (SQL) and synthesising large sets of data
- Skilled at negotiation - Effectively sell the value of Uber's Grocery & Retail platform to ensure sustainable partnerships for both parties.
- Strategic thought-leader - Someone who is talented at crafting deal proposals and knows their way around a P&L.
- Expertise in docs, decks, and contracts - Imperative that this individual has experience creating proposal docs + decks that are ready for a C-Suite audience.
- Make things happen (internally and externally) - Not everything goes to plan - this person needs to be able to rally the troops internally and externally to drive to results. This will be imperative.
Basic Qualifications
- Minimum 6 years of Sales, Business Development, Consulting, or Investment Banking experience
- Analytical capabilities (SQL and modeling)
- Exceptional communication skills - internally and externally, written and verbal. This person will be tasked with writing externally-facing documents, such as executive-level presentations, deal proposals, RFP responses, and term sheets.
- Strong use of insights and data to help form overall strategy and drive decision-making. Understand both Uber and Retailer’s P&L to come to the right decision when deal-making.
Preferred Qualifications
- Ability to understand the technical aspects of a deal (e.g. tax, contractual language, etc), alongside a deep understanding of how our product works.
- Track record working with cross-functional partners (e.g. Legal, Engineering, Product, Tax, Marketing) to help internally advocate for merchants’ needs.
- CRM experience (Salesforce)
- Experience in On-Demand Delivery or Retail
- Self-starter demeanor with an ability to thrive in a fast-moving, constantly evolving team environment, and a passion for sales
- Ability to clearly frame a value proposition and ask the right questions to be able to overcome objections to gain commitment from external and internal partners
