Job Description

Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.

Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

You'll be responsible for driving high-volume sales operations, mentoring and developing sales professionals, and implementing strategies that scale our business.

  • Operational Efficiency : Implement sales processes and tools to improve team efficiency, track performance, and optimize the sales lifecycle.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration : Work closely with marketing, operations, and product teams to align sales efforts with overall business objectives.

    Beware of Recruitment Fraud : Groupon follows a merit-based recruitment process without charging job seekers any fees.

Be cautious of individuals falsely representing Groupon's Talent Acquisition team with fake job offers. If you encounter any suspicious job offers or interview calls demanding money, recognize these as scams. Groupon is not responsible for losses from such dealings.
