About the role
Retailer Growth at Airgoods is responsible for driving GMV growth with our most important retailers - from high-performing independents to multi-location grocery businesses. You will be the first hire on our Retailer Growth team, building a new function that we plan to grow aggressively over the next 6-12 months, and you’ll work extremely closely day-to-day with Elian (Co-Founder and COO).
What they're looking for
- You enjoy building authentic relationships and care about helping customers' businesses succeed
- You're curious about innovation in the physical world - blending AI tools with physical products, spaces, and operators
- You want to build and define a new function, not just execute within an existing playbook
- You get excited about specialty food and beverage - you're the kind of person who enjoys browsing the shelves of your local cheese shop
- Must haves
- Strong work ethic – we move fast and work hard (9-9 Monday through Thursday, and later nights + weekends when needed to hit ambitious goals). We care deeply about what we're building and support each other through the pace
