Responsibilities

We are looking for a Strategy & Analytics Senior Lead to drive mission critical product and business decisions. This role owns the strategic direction for a cross-functional pod with a broad mandate, identifying and answering critical questions such as: What should our next 6-month strategy look like? What is the biggest lever to move our north star metric? What roadmap items should we prioritize to maximize impact? How can we learn from our launches and experiments to make the next iteration better? How and why are our most critical metrics moving?
The S&A team at Faire is unlike any other analytics team. We are leaders in our space — owning the metrics, analytical roadmap, prioritization, and strategic decisions end-to-end. We have a unique combination of skills including strategic thinking, problem solving, execution, and technical acumen that enable us to tackle the most ambiguous problems and influence key leaders on high stakes business decisions. We are true thought partners to many functions including Product, Sales, Operations, Marketing, and Finance.
This is an ideal role for someone who wants to work as a high-impact individual contributor in a fast-paced, highly collaborative, and data-driven environment. This is a high-visibility role where you'll regularly present strategic insights and recommendations to Faire's leadership team, and your work will directly drive positive impact for Faire and our customers.
We have multiple openings across this team, and use a general interview process. As a candidate, you’ll have a chance to meet hiring managers and teammates across several pillars throughout the process. By the final stage, you’ll be routed to the most relevant role(s) based on business priorities in addition to your skillsets and interests. We make sure you have plenty of time to meet your manager and potential teammates at the end of the process. More on the four pillars of our business below:
Retailer Growth Pillar focuses on growing Faire’s retailer base by acquiring, activating, and retaining more retailers, ultimately driving demand and deeper engagement with the marketplace.⁠
Brand Pillar drives Faire’s supply side — acquiring new brands, building tooling to help them run their businesses, partnering with them to maximize their growth and success on Faire, and ensuring quality of the marketplace.
Value Pillar makes Faire the best place for independent retailers to buy inventory, building programs that take cost and friction out of sourcing inventory: membership discounts, flexible financing, a fulfillment network enabling lower minimums and faster and cheaper shipping, and simpler inventory workflows behind every order.
Discovery Pillar focuses on the core shopping experience — helping retailers find the right products and brands through search, recommendations, ads, and exploration while balancing marketplace dynamics.
Break down complex and ambiguous strategic problems to uncover actionable insights
Tackle large cross-functional strategic initiatives that move company metrics in partnership with Product, Sales, Finance, Operations, Marketing, etc.
