GTM Strategy & Operations Lead
Faire, San Francisco, CA, United States
Overview
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. At Faire, we combine tech, data, and machine learning to connect a thriving community of entrepreneurs. We help boutiques discover the best products from around the world to sell in their stores, with the goal of leveling the playing field so small businesses can compete with big box and e-commerce giants.
By supporting the growth of independent businesses, Faire is driving positive economic impact in local communities globally. We’re looking for smart, resourceful, and passionate people to join us as we power the shop local movement. If you believe in community, come join ours.
