Groupon’s mission is to become the daily habit in local commerce and fulfill our purpose of building strong communities through thriving small businesses by connecting people to a vibrant, global marketplace for local services, experiences and goods.

If you want to take more ownership of your career, then you're ready to be part of Groupon.

We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact. We're curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive. Does that sound like a compelling place to work?

  • Design communication and training strategies, including identifying the appropriate learning process, timing, execution, and delivery

  • Facilitate and directly drive critical issue resolution and eliminate roadblocks. Serve as the key escalation point for all critical issues and initiatives.

  • Establish strong working relationships with senior leadership to support strategic operational changes

  • Collect, analyze, and evaluate data to track project performance and important developments; synthesize raw data into digestible and actionable information

 

Qualifications and Job Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in a business related field, preferred

  • 3+ years  business experience where strong execution was necessary to drive business results in a fast-paced and demanding setting

  • Strong problem solving, negotiating, influencing, facilitation, organization, prioritization, decision making, and conflict resolution skills

  • Analytical skills, project management expertise and strategic vision

  • Proficient in Microsoft Excel

  • Demonstrate the ability to work independently and raise concerns to your manager swiftly

  • Possess expert organizational and documentation skills necessary for proficiently and diligently executing programs, processes and strategies
