- Operate 6–12 months ahead, anticipating customer needs and surfacing insights, roadmaps, and pitches in line with their annual and quarterly planning cadences.

- Partner closely with the Pinterest CPG team to create aligned grocery retail media strategies, driving shared success and a coherent go-to-market approach across partners.

- Collaborate effectively with cross-functional experts (e.g., Measurement, Creative Strategy, Sales Ops, Product) to design solutions that meet diverse client needs and deliver against agreed goals.
- Role-model inclusive, respectful ways of working, contributing to a team culture that values different backgrounds, perspectives, and working styles.
