YOUR MISSION

Glovo's SMB partners are what make our promise of "anything in minutes" real. As an Account Manager, SMB, you will own a portfolio of these partners and turn it into a growth engine by helping them sell more on Glovo while growing Glovo's revenue through smarter commercial terms, promotions and Glovo Ads.

THE JOURNEY

  • Own a portfolio of SMB partners end to end (their orders, GMV, AOV and profitability) and build account plans for the partners with the most potential.
  • Drive commercial growth: negotiate commissions and terms, secure promotions and new branches, and upsell Glovo Ads and in-app visibility products.
  • Run a high-tempo engagement rhythm: around 40 focused partner calls a day and 1–2 field days a week meeting partners face to face.
  • Lead with data: run weekly portfolio reviews in Looker, Google Sheets and Salesforce, spot trends early, and bring partners clear, data-backed business reviews.
  • Fix what costs partners orders: partner with Partner Operations, Live Ops and Courier Ops to improve availability, prep times, cancellations and delivery times.
  • Be the voice of the partner inside Glovo: share market insights and help shape new campaigns and products.
  • Protect the portfolio: spot at-risk partners early, resolve escalations end to end and keep churn low.

Qualifications

  • 1–3 years in account management, sales, business development or merchant/vendor management, ideally in a marketplace, food delivery, fintech, e-commerce or FMCG business.
  • A track record of hitting commercial targets and negotiating with business owners. You handle objections and you close.
  • Strong analytical skills. You're confident in Excel/Google Sheets and dashboards and use data to decide where to spend your time.
  • Experience managing many accounts at once with discipline and follow-through.
  • Ownership and resilience. You solve problems end to end and do your best work in a fast-moving environment.
