Job Description
Sr Operations Manager, US&C Merchant Ops, Retail
Department: Operations
Team: Operations
Location: Chicago, United States
Type: Full-Time
**About the Role**
Uber Retail is a fast-growing startup within Uber that enables consumers to get just about anything delivered through the Uber Eats app or UberEats.com. As a Senior Strategic Operations Manager, you will own the performance and growth of our highest growth categories (e.g., retail, beauty, apparel, convenience, alcohol). You will work cross-functionally with other teams (i.e. Support, Partner Management, Catalog, Marketplace, Product, Engineering, Legal) to lead high-impact initiatives that can scale these brands to drive revenue growth and operational excellence.
You will succeed in this role if: you produce your best results in a team environment; you possess an insatiable appetite to learn continuously; you value ideas over hierarchy; customer obsession runs in your DNA.
**What You'll Do**
- Strategy: Build a thesis-driven and evidence backed strategy to improve the customer experience. You will dive deeply into how the business operates from the items that appear on an eater’s catalog to the courier's final drop off, while becoming the owner of moving the needle on critical OKRs
- Data analysis: Structure, execute, and communicate research to help inform the best practices and recommendations for merchants. You will need to pull and analyze data autonomously, set up experiments, and distinguish signal from noise
- Stakeholder management: Orchestrate and influence the work of a wide range of cross-functional stakeholders including other Ops teams, Product, Finance, Partner Management, Support, and Legal
- Learn: Take your time and absorb all you can about Uber, the grocery and retail businesses, consumer applications, and real world logistics. This is an amazing opportunity to get your hands dirty and learn how the sausage is made
**Basic Qualifications**
- 4+ years of professional experience in a related field (analytics, tech, consultant, or operations)
- Experience with Excel/Google Sheets
- Proficiency in SQL and LLMs
- Bachelors D
