Faire
Join to apply for the Core Strategy Senior Associate role at Faire.
About Faire Faire is an online wholesale marketplace built on the belief that the future is local — independent retailers around the globe are doing more revenue than Walmart and Amazon combined, but individually, they are small compared to these massive entities.

Picture your favorite boutique in town — we help them discover the best products from around the world to sell in their stores. With the right tools and insights, we believe that we can level the playing field so that small businesses everywhere can compete with these big box and e-commerce giants.

Build the central nervous system at Faire and ensure that insights are accessible to all teams
Help shape the culture and capabilities of the Core Strategy team by improving our processes, mentoring teammates, and setting a high bar for excellence
