OVERVIEW

At Instacart we solve for the customer. That extends beyond the thousands of households we serve daily to the leading and emerging consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies that want to shape how consumers perceive, shop, and stay loyal to their brands.

The approaches may include process development, account coverage strategy, building a Challenger mindset on the team, and partnering with technical teams on automation or offshoring of processes. This person will enjoy the challenge of working in a multi-sided marketplace and seek to understand the second-order effects of how actions taken by each side shapes the others.
