Manager, Strategic Regional Sales - Doordash
Arlington Heights, IL 60006
About the Job
About the TeamThe key to DoorDash’s growth is merchant selection
The more local favorites we add to DoorDash, the faster we will add new customers, the better we will retain existing customers, and the higher our conversion rates will be for customers visiting our app or website.With the acquisition of Caviar, this selection has expanded into the Premium segment
This covers local favorites as well as high ticket ($$$+) merchants with James Beard Awards or Michelin Stars
Also in this segment, under the Caviar and DoorDash Ace and King umbrella, are top Regional Chains
From a brand equity and growth standpoint, these merchants help us create a bespoke off premise experience for customers while helping us learn about the problems our nation’s top chefs encounter and build products and services that solve those challenges. This role will build and lead the front line sales managers and sales teams that are responsible for the acquisition of top selection across its respective super region, collaborate with partner teams to create a white glove onboarding experience for these merchants, sell new products and services into these merchants, and share learnings about their pain points with our Merchant S&O and Product teams to inform our product roadmap.
