Uber Advertising helps brands and businesses connect with consumers across Uber’s Mobility and Delivery platforms. We support advertisers across consumer packaged goods (CPG), agencies, restaurants, retail, and other verticals, helping them use Uber’s suite of advertising solutions to achieve their marketing and business goals.
As the Senior Associate, Global Ads Performance Enablement - Acquisition, you will help advertising Account Executives, including acquisition-focused Client Partners, strengthen the skills and sales discipline needed to win new advertisers and establish successful client relationships. Your focus will be on improving execution across the acquisition journey—from prospecting and qualification through discovery, solution development, negotiation, and close.
You will partner with global and regional Ads Enablement teams, frontline managers, commercial leaders, and Sales Operations to understand business priorities, competitive trends, and seller performance needs. Using commercial performance data, CRM insights, call reviews, and direct observation, you will identify coaching opportunities and deliver practical support that helps sellers translate learning into stronger execution and measurable results.
This role requires a strong coach and facilitator who understands advertising sales, builds credibility with experienced sellers, and connects skill development to advertiser needs. You will develop repeatable coaching resources and targeted performance programs that regional teams can adapt to their markets, while directly supporting priority seller groups.

- Develop opportunity execution skills: Strengthen stakeholder mapping, proposal development, objection handling, negotiation, and closing. Help sellers establish clear next steps and mutual expectations with prospective clients.
- Reinforce sales rigor and Salesforce hygiene: Partner with Sales Operations and managers to reinforce agreed qualification standards, stage progression, opportunity updates, close dates, and next-step discipline. Help sellers use accurate CRM records to manage their pipeline and support reliable forecasting.
- Partner with frontline managers: Align on coaching priorities, define observable behaviors and success measures, and share progress and recommendations. Equip managers with coaching guides and practice activities they can use in regular team and pipeline conversations.
- Scale effective practices globally: Develop reusable acquisition playbooks, coaching resources, and skill-development programs with regional Enablement partners. Adapt delivery to local market conditions, languages, product availability, and advertiser needs.
- Connect skill development to product changes: Partner with Ads GTM Enablement, Product, and Marketing to reinforce the selling behaviors needed for new offerings or changes. Turn launch knowledge into practical discovery questions, positioning, and objection handling.
- Support successful client handoffs: Reinforce clear documentation of advertiser objectives, agreed solutions, measurement expectations, and commitments so Partner Managers and delivery teams can support a strong transition after close.
- Measure progress and refine support: Track skill proficiency, behavior change, pipeline quality, stage conversion, sales cycle progression, and new advertiser outcomes. Use results and feedback to improve coaching and share effective practices.
- Reinforce effective use of sales technology: Help sellers use Salesforce, Seismic, conversational intelligence, Agentforce, and other approved tools to improve preparation, execution, and productivity.
