  • Partner cross-functionally with Operations, Growth, Marketing, Finance and Ads teams to resolve partner issues quickly and deliver on commercial commitments
  • Defend Glovo's commercial position in high-stakes negotiations (commission disputes, retention conversations, competitor threats), knowing when to hold the line and when to structure a creative win-win
  • Continuously monitor the competitive and market landscape to anticipate partner needs and identify new growth or monetisation levers
  • Act as a trusted business consultant to your partners, building relationships where partners follow Glovo's recommendations even when a competitor offers a cheaper deal
