About the Role

The Account Manager embodies this strategy by driving the growth of specific cities, areas and partners, both on the topline (orders and client's growth) and bottom line (average basket), with a focus on the partner's dimension & experience of the marketplace. This role is an opportunity to help grow, with a strong sense of ownership. This role calls for a combination of an operational approach, analysis of performance and exceptional relationship management.
