Why this role is on the menu
We're hiring an Account Manager II to make Instacart Ads the place CPG advertisers and agencies trust to grow their business, by improving campaign performance, widening how brands invest across our ad products, and shaping the advertiser experience.

Twelve months from now, the advertisers you partner with should see Instacart as a growth partner whose recommendations they act on.

• Business Reviews: Recurring client conversations and quarterly business reviews turn campaign data into a clear story of business impact, opportunities, and next steps. You own the vision and content for these reviews, and advertisers leave knowing what to do next. You also resolve campaign and partner issues with limited guidance.
