Client Partner, Grocery & Retail

As a Client Partner on Uber’s Retail Partnerships team, you will lead strategic sales and partnership development with major retail brands across the US. You will own the end-to-end commercial process, from identifying high-impact opportunities and engaging senior executives to negotiating agreements and signing partnerships that drive marketplace growth, selection, and sustainable revenue for Uber.

Our team operates in a fast-paced, highly cross-functional environment where speed, commercial judgment, and strategic execution are critical. You will work closely with Partner Management, Product, Partner Engineering, Marketing, Legal, Finance, and Operations to navigate complex enterprise deals, develop differentiated partnership strategies, and unlock new opportunities across Uber’s Marketplace, Uber One, Ads, Direct, and other platform capabilities.

Working in Uber Retail means building a startup within a global company. You will be responsible for the high-stakes mission of signing key strategic retail brands, moving the real world by expanding our selection beyond restaurant food. This role is about more than just transactional selling; it is about establishing the foundation of long-term partnerships in a space that is still being defined.

The pace is fast, and the environment is often ambiguous as we create solutions for problems that haven't been solved at Uber before. You will need a "go-get-it" attitude and deep resilience to navigate internal complexity and tough partner negotiations. If you are energized by ownership, thrive on solving unscripted problems, and want to see your work have a tangible impact on local communities, this is where you’ll grow.

• Build and grow long-term partnerships by engaging senior-level executives and understanding their core business needs, not just selling a product.
• Navigate the messiness of shifting priorities and internal processes, collaborating across Product, Legal, and Finance to move deals from discovery to close.
• Lead complex contract negotiations aimed at establishing sustainable economics for both parties while managing pricing pushbacks and client objections.
• Manage a strategic pipeline with urgency and discipline, balancing long-term relationship building with the pressure of monthly growth targets.
• Identify and solve blockers for potential partners, using data to influence decision-makers and creatively differentiating Uber’s grocery offerings.
• Act as the voice of the customer internally, helping to shape the retail strategy and raise the bar for how we show up for millions of users.

• 6 + years of professional work experience.
• 3+ years of full-cycle sales experience (prospecting, discovery, pitch, negotiation, contracting, and close).
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.

• Experience selling into or partnering with large, complex enterprise brands within the food delivery or third-party marketplace industry.
• Proven ability to lead through influence, effectively communicating technical and strategic concepts to both C-level executives and Engineering teams.
• Adaptability and grit to thrive in a high-growth environment where the playbook is still being written.
• Experience with Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and a deep understanding of digital advertising or technology sales.
