A day in the life
Main responsibilities:

As a Marketplace Consultant, you strategically consult your own portfolio of Selling Partners independently. Your objective is to support Selling Partners to drive their business growth and program satisfaction by working backwards from their individual targets and developing a roadmap together with your Selling Partners. In addition, you use your analytical know-how to proactively identify untapped potential of each Selling Partner. Additionally, you will also be responsible for recruiting and onboarding Selling Partners to this new service. Last, you will be responsible of the launch of this program in European countries, which entails a significant level of ambiguity and requires effective stakeholder management to coordinate across various teams.

This is an individual contributor role.
