Senior Manager, Strategy

Warby Parker is on the lookout for a dynamic, sharp-as-a-tack Senior Strategy Manager to help us revolutionize the eye care industry, applying innovative new practices to achieve sustainable growth. In this role, you’ll lead the research, development, and execution of strategic priorities, becoming an expert on opportunities to expand our business (with an emphasis on addressing the over 100M adults in the US with vision insurance and benefits). You’ll also work cross-functionally to translate these opportunities into reality by partnering with our Brand Management, Retail, Product, Technology, and Customer Experience teams.

• Lead pilot tests, partnerships, and other corporate development activities to drive our long-term strategic priorities
• Stay on top of the latest news and developments around eye care, retail, customer experience, and technology

Who you are:

• Backed by 5+ years of experience in a highly analytic and strategic role (bonus points for experience in management consulting or corporate strategy)
• An optimistic and creative problem solver who’s always eager to learn (you’re comfortable working with uncertainty)
• Experienced in cross-functional collaboration and coordination
• A crystal-clear communicator with a deep appreciation for data-driven decision making (you love to translate data into strategic recommendations)
• Able to develop frameworks and analyses that support complex strategic problem-solving
• A whiz at Excel and PowerPoint and/or Google equivalent (Sheets, Slides)
