About the job
At Groupon, we empower customers to discover exciting experiences and help local businesses thrive. With a portfolio of over a million merchant partners globally, we connect 16 million customers with exceptional deals across diverse categories. In a landscape often dominated by e-commerce giants, Groupon stands out as a platform dedicated to enhancing the success of local businesses through performance-driven solutions.
We are on a transformative journey, driven by an unwavering commitment to achieve remarkable results. Despite our vast team spanning multiple continents, we uphold a culture that fosters innovation, encourages calculated risk-taking, and celebrates achievements. Here, your impact can be immediate, thanks to our scale and the velocity of our transformation. We embody the best of both worlds: large enough to offer substantial resources and support, yet agile enough that each individual's contributions can lead to significant outcomes.
About the Role:
