[Hiring] Senior Manager, Marketplace & Retail Channels @Grove Collaborative

Role Description

We’re looking for an experienced marketplace operator to help scale our portfolio of owned brands across Amazon, TikTok Shop, QVC, and iHerb. Amazon is a growth driver, and this role is focused on driving performance and execution across channels, with strong ownership of how work gets done day-to-day. You’ll partner closely with the VP of Merchandising, our Amazon agency, QVC broker, and cross-functional teams to translate business priorities into clear plans, disciplined execution, and measurable results.

This is a Senior Manager role—you’ll operate with a high degree of independence, lead complex workstreams, and influence outcomes across teams, while not owning the full business segment strategy. You will also have a small internal team reporting to you.

You’ll need to be someone who can navigate ambiguity, make strong tactical decisions, and keep the business moving forward when things aren’t clearly defined.
