About this role
Brand Growth is one of Faire's top company objectives - it's one of the biggest levers we have to unlock retailer share of wallet and enable retailers to do more and more of their spend on Faire. As a Strategy & Operations Senior Lead, you'll take end-to-end ownership of our Enterprise opportunity globally, across NAM, Europe, and future markets - defining how we identify, win, and grow our largest and most strategic brand partners. You'll operate as a senior individual contributor with significant scope: setting the strategic agenda, driving the analyses and business cases that shape it, and leading the cross-functional execution that turns strategy into results.
You'll partner closely with Product, Sales, Marketing, Data Science, and Program Management to build the go-to-market motion, operating cadence, and investment priorities for Enterprise, and you'll regularly present performance, insights, and recommendations to cross-functional leadership. Beyond scaling today's Enterprise motion, you'll explore entirely new opportunities to unlock supply growth - from 1P fulfillment models to deeper business development partnerships. You won't have direct reports, but you will be a de facto leader on the team - setting direction for how Enterprise is prioritized, and acting as a thought partner and mentor to other Strategy & Operations teammates.
This is an ideal role for someone who wants outsized ownership of a high-visibility, high-growth, global area of the business - combining deep analytical rigor with the strategic judgment and cross-functional influence to drive a new opportunity from thesis to scaled execution.

- Regularly present Enterprise performance and strategic recommendations to Faire's broader leadership team
- Act as a thought partner and informal mentor to other Strategy & Operations teammates
Qualifications
- 8+ years of relevant work experience in an analytical and strategic role across Strategy & Operations, Business Operations, Consulting, or Finance
- Experience owning a strategic initiative or business area end-to-end, ideally including exposure to Enterprise, key account, or B2B go-to-market motions
- Experience with pricing strategy, global/international expansion, or new business model development is a plus
- You are a strategic problem solver. You can break down ambiguous problems and apply a first-principles approach to solving them
- You are highly analytical and metrics-focused. You can execute complex analyses, define KPIs, size opportunity areas, and measure and report on performance across the business
- Advanced technical skill set with strong proficiency in Excel + SQL
- You're fluent with AI tools and use them to move faster - accelerating analysis, research, and execution
- You are a strong communicator who can crisply translate data-driven insights into recommendations for audiences up to and including senior leadership
- You have strong product and business intuition, and can contextualize insights within broader business goals
- You are highly collaborative and can influence and drive results through others, without relying on formal authority
