What You'll Do

  • Executive Commercial Leadership: Lead and close the most high-stakes, sophisticated commercial and legal negotiations with senior executives at global brands, structuring global agreements that create massive, sustainable, mutual value and expand adoption of Uber's products

  • Executive Stakeholder Management: Build relationships with C-level executives and key decision makers within partner organizations. Employ critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills to navigate negotiations and difficult partner conversations

  • Thought Leadership: Champion Uber's differentiated value proposition—reliability, global scale, and best-in-class integration—serving as a thought leader who can challenge partner assumptions and redefine their last-mile strategy

  • Attention to Detail: Handle the big picture and the tiny details. You are organized, timely and ensure nothing gets missed; you are also attuned to high-level strategy and consistently come up with new ways to add value to existing partnerships

  • Analytical A-Game: Develop business models and analyses with Ops Analysts to understand trends, provide meaningful insights, and track the impact of initiatives against our goals

  • Collaborative leadership. You can't help but dig in tactically, flexing your analytical skills where needed, and are equally as comfortable leading a conversation with an Engineer, Product Manager, or C-level executive to secure buy-in
