Sales Executive, Mid Market

We're transforming the grocery industry

Instacart is a Flex First team

Why this role is on the menu

Instacart is growing its advertising business at pace, and our CPG brand partners need more than account management — they need a strategic partner who can connect the dots between retail media investment and real business outcomes. Without this role, a growing portfolio of mid-market brands won't get the dedicated attention needed to accelerate their growth on the platform. Twelve months from now, this person will have become the trusted advisor for 5–10 fast-growing brands, helping them unlock the full potential of Instacart's platform and becoming a critical driver of our ads revenue growth.

What you'll cook up in your first year

• Own and grow a portfolio of 5–10 mid-market CPG brands, building relationships deep enough with executive stakeholders that you become their first call when they're thinking about retail media investment.
• Hit and exceed quarterly and annual revenue targets by translating data-driven insights into compelling investment cases that move clients from transactional spend to strategic partnerships.
• Deliver monthly, quarterly, and annual business reviews that go beyond reporting — identifying growth opportunities and influencing how brands allocate their advertising budgets on Instacart.
• Build a library of differentiated sales collateral, case studies, and brand-specific narratives that make it easier for your clients to say yes — and for the broader team to replicate your wins.
• Become a recognized voice at the intersection of CPG and retail media, bringing insights from the field back to product, marketing, and insights teams to improve how Instacart serves this client segment.
